Abstract
Palladium(II)–SCS-pincer complexes have been covalently immobilized on porous silica and polynorbornene supports and evaluated in the Mizoroki–Heck reaction of iodobenzene and n-butyl acrylate. Kinetic experiments and poisoning studies indicate that the pincer complexes decompose under reaction conditions via rupture of the palladiumligand bonds to liberate active Pd(0) homogeneous species. There is no evidence for catalysis by the intact Pd(II) pincer complex under any conditions evaluated, ruling out a Pd(II)–Pd(IV) catalytic mechanism that has been postulated for palladacycle catalysts under the conditions used here.
