Palladium(II) Acetylacetonate CAS 14024-61-4

High-Purity Palladium(II) Acetylacetonate from Aure Chemical – Your Trusted Source

Palladium(II) acetylacetonate, Pd(acac)₂ or bis(acetylacetonato)palladium(II), CAS No. 14024-61-4, is a highly regarded organometallic Pd(II) complex valued for its volatility, thermal stability, and clean decomposition behavior. Supplied by Aure Chemical as bright yellow to orange-yellow crystalline powder with high palladium content (approximately 35–36% Pd), this air-stable, neutral compound exhibits excellent solubility in organic solvents and serves as a preferred precursor for chemical vapor deposition (CVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD), and solution-based thin-film processes. It is widely employed in depositing high-purity palladium films, preparing supported Pd catalysts, synthesizing organometallic complexes, and producing palladium nanoparticles or functional materials for electronics, fuel cells, sensors, and catalysis research. Aure Chemical delivers stringent purity control, low residual impurities, and secure palladium sourcing to ensure reproducible deposition and catalytic performance in advanced technology and R&D applications worldwide.
