A series of (methyl)palladium complexes of general formula Bp'Pd(CH3)(L) [B
p' = Bp = dihydridobis(pyrazolyl)borate; Bp' = Bp* = dihydridobis(3,5-dimet
hylpyrazolyl)borate, L = phosphane] has been synthesised. The interaction o
f these alkyl complexes with carbon monoxide produces the acetyl derivative
s Bp'Pd(C(O)Me)(L), one of the members of this series, BpPd[C(O)Me](PPh3),
being structurally characterised by X-ray diffraction studies.
