Pd/C vs. Pd/BaSO4


does anybody know if the difference on the solid support of Pd results in different activity or applicability for certain reductions? as far as specific area per gram matters, charcoal sure makes a difference vs. BaSO4.

It's not much, but in Chemical Reviews, (1985) 85(2), 129-170 they state:

" [the following] order of activity was found in the hydrogenolysis of benzyloxycarbonyl and benzyl protecting groups of peptides using cyclohexadiene as hydrogen donor, Ie., Pd black > 10%
Pd/C > 5% Pd/C > 10% Pd/BaS04 > 5% Pd/BaSO4."

Pd/BaSO4 will not reduce double bonds, but will reduce triple bonds, IIRC. It's basically Pd poisoned with Ba.

Pd/BaSO4 is a slightly poisoned form of Pd catalyst that has some peculiar properties. For example, it can reduce acyl chlorides to aldehydes but not aldehydes to alcohols (not that Pd/C is particularly efficient at reducing aldehydes either, but Pd/BaSO4 does it more cleanly).

I don't quite see the applicability of this paper but here it is:
