We report a general method for the preparation of transition-metal silicon nitride nanocomposites; for example, mesoporous Pd-Si 3 N 4 nanocomposite materials with high surface area were prepared by pyrolysis of a silicon palladium imide-chloride co...

Ba2−xSrxPdO2F2(0 ≤ x ≤ 1.5): The first palladium-oxide-fluorides (2003)
Journal Article
Baikie, T., Dixon, E. L., Young, N. A., Rooms, J. F., & Francesconi, M. G. (2003). Ba2−xSrxPdO2F2(0 ≤ x ≤ 1.5): The first palladium-oxide-fluorides. Chemical communications : Chem comm / the Royal Society of Chemistry, 3(13), 1580-1581. https://doi.org/10.1039/b303402j

The first series of alkaline-earth palladium oxide-fluorides Ba2−xSrxPdO2F2(0 ≤ x ≤ 1.5) display the T′ structure (Nd2CuO4) instead of the predicted T structure (La2CuO4), showing that electronic factors prevail over steric factors.
