Dipotassium hexachloropalladate (Cat No.:M082092) is an inorganic coordination compound consisting of palladium in the +4 oxidation state complexed with six chloride ligands. It appears as a dark red to brown crystalline solid and is soluble in water. This compound is commonly used as a palladium precursor in the synthesis of catalysts for organic transformations, including hydrogenation and carbon-carbon coupling reactions. It also finds applications in electroplating, analytical chemistry, and materials science. Due to its oxidative nature and heavy metal content, it must be handled under controlled laboratory conditions.
