Imidoyl chlorides were good substrates which can react with a variety of organotin compounds to give ketimines in the presence of a catalytic amount of palladium complex. Under similar conditions, C-tributylstannyl imines did not give the products except with 2-(tributylstannyl)benzothiazole, -benzoxazole, and 1-methyl 2-(tributylstannyl)imidazole. And N-tributylstannyl imines could not be utilized
