Abstract

AbstractThe mixed pincer palladacycles (Me2NCH2(Cl)CCCH2CH2Y‐κN,κC,κY)PdCl (1, Y=PPh2; 2, OPPh2) and (t‐BuSCH2CH2CC(Cl)(o‐NC5H4)‐κS,κC,κN)PdCl 3 have been obtained in high yields by chloropalladation of heterosusbstituted alkynes Me2NCH2CCCH2CH2PPh2, Me2NCH2CCCH2CH2OPPh2 and t‐BuSCH2CH2CC(o‐NC5H4), respectively. The molecular structures of 1 and 3 have been ascertained by means of X‐ray diffraction analysis. The catalytic properties of these mixed donor group pincer‐type palladacycles have been evaluated in the arylation of olefins (Heck reaction). The pincer palladacycle 1 is highly active for the coupling of aryl iodides and aryl bromides with n‐butyl acrylate. In contrast it is only moderately active for the coupling of aryl chlorides substituted with electron‐withdrawing groups and inactive for the coupling of electron neutral and electron deactivated aryl chlorides.
