Abstract

The dechlorination of various organochlorides using atmospheric molecular hydrogen (H2) can be efficiently catalysed by magnetically separable Pd nanoclusters supported on the surface of hydroxyapatite-encapsulated γ-Fe2O3 (PdHAP-γ-Fe2O3). For instance, dechlorination of chlorobenzene gave benzene with an excellent turnover frequency (TOF) of 2500 h−1 in the presence of 1 atm of H2. This PdHAP-γ-Fe2O3 catalyst can be recovered briefly using an external magnetic field and reused at least three times without loss of its high catalytic activity.
