Chemical compound

Gallium palladide (GaPd or PdGa)^[2] is an intermetallic combination of gallium and palladium. It has the iron monosilicide crystal structure.^[3] The compound has been suggested as an improved catalyst for hydrogenation reactions.^[4]^[5] In principle, gallium palladide can be a more selective catalyst since unlike substituted compounds, the palladium atoms are spaced out in a regular crystal structure rather than randomly.^[6]^[7]
