Palladium Chloride question

[technology]

Hi all,

O.k i have done searchs and looked abroad, however i have a question.

I understand that PdCL2 is used in the wacker oxidation of safrole, despite this, what other PdCl's can be used in place of PdCL2, can one use PdCL4 for example.

Thanks for the help.."
