We study the nature of one-electron eigen-states in a one-dimensional diluted Anderson model where every Anderson impurity is diluted by a periodic function f(l). Using renormalization group and transfer matrix techniques, we provide accurate estimates of the extended states which appear in this model, whose number depends on the symmetry of the diluting function f(l). The density of states (DOS) for this model is also numerically obtained and its main features are related to the symmetries of the diluting function f(l). Further, we show that the emergence of extended states promotes a sub-diffusive spread of an initially localized wave-packet.
