In this study, we demonstrated the direct synthesis of sodium dihydrogen phosphate (PA) containing palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) supported on a metal–organic framework (MOF). The resulting composite containing PA molecules coexisting with PdNPs demonstrated improved hydrogenation catalytic performance compared to the composites without PA.
