Reaction of pyrrole-2,5-biscarbonitrile with 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol ga
ve the bis{2-(4,4'-dimethyl-4,5-dihydrooxazolyl)}pyrrole (dmoxpH) (1), whic
h was deprotonated and reacted with [PdCl2(COD] to give [Pd-2(dmoxp)(2)Cl-2
] (2) and [Pd-3(dmoxp)(2)Cl-4] (3). The former is an active catalyst in the
Suzuki cross coupling of phenylboronic acid with activated and nonactivate
d aryl bromides at 70 degreesC and catalyst / substrate ratios of 10(-4) to
10(-5).
