be retained by macro-ring strain produced by 5,5′-linkage of biphenyls even without 6,6′-substituents on biphenyls. The Pd(II)-2d complex as catalyst showed high catalytic activity and enantioselectivity for asymmetricWacker-typecyclization of allylphenols.

A new family of chelation-induced axiallychiral palladium complexes by using biphenyl ligands 2 with four identical chiral oxazoline groups at four ortho positions has been developed. Although there is no axialchirality in ligands 2 due to the molecular symmetry, when they chelated with one or two palladium ions, the axialchirality could be induced by destroying the molecular symmetry. Significantly
A series of axis-unfixed bisoxazoline ligands with different steric and electronic properties has been synthesized. Due to the different steric interactions, the ligands afforded only one of the two possible diastereomeric Pd(II)-complexes upon metal coordination. The palladium complex (S,aS)-8c showed excellent catalytic activities and enantioselectivities in Wacker-type cyclization of allylphenols with up to 98% ee. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

Catalyticasymmetric Wacker-type cyclization of 2-(2,3-dimethyl-2-butenyl)phenol (la) was efficiently catalyzed by 1 or 2 mol % of a cationic palladium-boxax complex generated in situ by mi;ring Pd(CH3CN)(4)(BF4)(2) with (S,S)-ip-boxax (3a) in the presence of p-benzoquinone to give (S)-(-)-2-isopropenyl-2-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran (2a) in 94-96% ee and 45-85% yield. An X-ray diffraction study of the crystal structure of Pd(OCOCF3)(2)(S,S)-ip-boxax} (6) revealed that the orientation of alkyl substituents on the borax ligand is perpendicular to the plane of the square planar complex.
