An unusually strong promoter effect on Pd catalysts is obtained from the complex [CdPd(CH3COO)4⋅CH3COOH]2 (depicted on the right), which could be isolated from a solution of Pd(OAc)2 and Cd(OAc)2 in acetic acid. In the total oxidation of ethylene, supported catalysts prepared from this precursor complex exhibited a higher catalytic activity than catalysts prepared from binary palladium acetate.
