Abstract
A variety of chiral and achiral imidazolium salts is synthesized. Methylene-, ethylene-, propylene- and pyridinyl-bridged bis(imidazolium) halides are used to generate the respective free chelating carbenes. The synthesis of palladium complexes of general formula [cis-CH 2 {NC(H)=C(H)N(R)C} 2 PdX 2 ] with these chelating N-heterocyclic carbene ligands is reported. Structural proofs of complexes 28 and 46 are represented by X-ray diffraction studies. Catalytic applications in the Mizoroki-Heck reaction are presented.
