Palladium bis(hexafluoroacetylacetonate) production method:

    4.15g (20mmol) of hexafluoroacetylacetone and 20mL of 1mol/L sodium hydroxide solution were mixed and stirred to prepare a sodium hexafluoroacetylacetonate solution. Dissolve 2.94g (10mmol) of Na2PdCl4 in 15mL of water and add it to the above-mentioned sodium hexafluoroacetylacetonate solution. After stirring for 1 h, filter and collect the crude palladium hexafluoroacetylacetonate product, wash with water, and dry in the presence of anhydrous CaCl2. The crude product was dissolved in a minimum amount of hot n-hexane, and the filtered solution was cooled to -78°C to obtain a yellow refined product. The product can be further purified by vacuum sublimation. The yield is 2.2g (42%).
