A. Zografidis et al., INSERTION OF ISOCYANIDES INTO THE PALLADIUM CARBON BOND OF CYCLOPALLADATED COMPLEXES, Zeitschrift fur Naturforschung. B, A journal of chemical sciences, 49(11), 1994, pp. 1494-1498
Insertion of isocyanides into the Pd-C bond has been observed in the r
eactions of PdBr[C6H3(CH(2)NMe(2))(2)-2,6] with isocyanides CNR which
give the complexes PdBr[C(=NR)C6H3(CH(2)NMe(2))(2)-2,6-C,N] (CNR) (2a-
d). An imino bridged complex 5 is formed on heating the imino complex
PdCl[C(=NCH(2)CO(2)Et) (C6H4(CH(2)NMe(2))-2)] (CNCH(2)CO(2)Et). The st
ructures of 2c (R = nBu) and 5 have been determined by X-ray crystallo
graphy.
