The synthesis and characterization of an ultra‐thin palladium nanocoating in the channels of a mesoporous silica material, designated as Pd‐SBA, is described. In the preparation of this new material, Si–H functional groups were introduced directly into the channel of an SBA‐15 mesoporous material, eventually resulting in a highly dispersed ultra‐thin nanocoating on the pore walls of the supporting material.
