Preparation and properties

Palladium(II) sulfate is produced by the reaction of palladium metal with a mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid. It can also be produced by the reaction of palladium(II) sulfide and oxygen in dimethylformamide.[1][3][4][5]

When anhydrous palladium(II) sulfate absorbs moisture from the air, it forms a greenish-brown dihydrate. The anhydrous form can be regenerated by the heating of the dihydrate at 202 °C.[1][4]

Anhydrous palladium(II) sulfate decomposes to palladium(II) oxide at 525 °C releasing sulfur trioxide:[1]

PdSO4 → PdO + SO3
