An inexpensive bidentate ligand N,N'-methylene-bis(2-aminopyridyl) (1) has been synthesized. Reaction of I with [Pd(COD)Cl-2] affords a stable chelate complex, [NC5H4N(H)(mu-CH2)(H)NC5H4N-kappa N,kappa N}PdCl2] (2). The kinetics of the pseudo-unimolecular reaction of N,N'-methylene-bis(2-aminopyridyl) with Pd(1,5-cyclooctadiene)Cl-2 has been studied over the range 3.0 <= 10(3) [1] <= 7.0 mol dm(-3), 30 degrees C <= t <= 40 degrees C. The rate constants and equilibrium constants were calculated. Entropy and enthalpy of the reaction are found to be -42 +/- 1 J K-1 mol(-1) and 75 +/- 1 kJ mol(-1). respectively, which clearly indicates that the substitution reaction follows associative mechanism. The complex 2 was tested for the Suzuki-cross-coupling reaction of a variety of aryl halides with aryl boronic acids in methanol at room temperature or at 60 degrees C giving generally high yields for both activated and inactivated aryl bromides. The effect of solvents as well as the effect of base on the Suzuki-coupling reaction is also investigated. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
