Highly efficient and remarkable selective acetone conversion to isopropanol has been achieved via a heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenation of acetone by NaBH₄ in the presence of semihollow palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) grown on ITO substrate. PdNPs with high surface defect grown on an indium tin oxide (ITO) surface were prepared via a simple immersion of the substrate into a solution containing K₂PdCl₆, sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), and formic acid for 2 h at room temperature. The sample showed remarkably high heterogeneous catalytic efficiency by producing 99.8% of isopropanol within 6 min using only 0.28 μg of PdNPs on the ITO surface. The present system exhibits heterogenenous catalytic hydrogenation efficiency 1 × 10⁶ time higher than using the conventional Raney Ni system.
