Abstract

The reaction of the pyridyl-bridged binuclear complex [PdBr(μ-2-C 5H 4N)(PPh 3)] 2 with isocyynides CNR (R  p-C 6H 4OMe, Me, C 6H 11) yields the complex PdBr {(&2.dbnd;NR)C(&2.dbnd;NR) (2-C 5H 4N)}(PPh 3)] containing a C,N-chelated 1,2-bis(imino)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl group, which results from successive insertions of two isocyanides molecules into the palladium2-pyridyl bond. The mononuclear compound trans-[PdBr(2-C 5H 4N)(PMePh 2) 2] readily reacts with various CNR ligands (R  p-C 6H 4OMe, Me, C 6H 11, CMe 3) to give the imino(2-pyridyl)methylpalladium(II) derivatives, trans-[Pdbr{C(=NR)(2-C 5H 4N)} (PMePh 2) 2].
