Presumably, in making reference to an extended desktop, you actually refer to the iPadOS Stage Manager feature.

Due to limitations of internal hardware, the Stage Manager feature introduced with iPadOS 16.1 is only available for these models of iPad:

iPad Air (5th generation)
iPad Pro 11-inch (all generations)
iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation and later)

Other iPad models and iPadOS versions only support screen mirroring of the iPad’s 4:3 screen - and will show a “letterboxed” view with black infill bands when used with 16:9 aspect-ratio monitors.

iPad feature availability is usually limited by system hardware - CPU and available RAM being critical to some advanced functionality. iPad models supporting Stage Manager have an M2, M1 or A12X CPU (upon which the M-series CPUs are based) - with at least 8GB RAM.

If your iPad (model undeclared) meets the required specifications, perhaps your third-party USB-C hub is not fully compatible with your iPad.
