Palladium(II) complexes with a ligand set made from a chelating N-heterocyclic dicarbene ligand and two weakly coordinating anions (generally introduced in situ upon addition of 2 equiv. of a suitable silver salt) were found to be very active and selective catalysts for the room-temperature hydroarylation of alkynes at low catalyst loading (0.1 mol-%). Moreover, the screening of various strong acids
An abnormal or mesoionic N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC), namely 1,4-diphenyl-3-methyl-1,2,3-triazol-S-ylidene (Tz), formed from 1,4-diphenyl-3-methyl-1,2,3-triazolium iodide and silver oxide, gave the corresponding silver carbene complex. The transmetalation reaction of the silver carbene complex with PdCl(2)(CH(3)CN)(2) gave a trans mononuclear complex, [(Tz)(2)PdCl(2)]. Reaction of the silver carbene complex with Pd(OAc)(2) gave an acetate-bridged binuclear complex in which the palladium had undergone a C-H insertion at the ortho position of the phenyl group attached to the triazole nitrogen (1-position). The structures of these two complexes Were established by single-crystal XRD data and spectroscopic data. The acetate complex was used as a catalyst for the stereoselective hydroarylation of alkynes.

The development of organometallic single-site catalysts (SSCs) has inspired the designs of new heterogeneous catalysts with high efficiency. Nevertheless, the application of SSCs in certain modem organic reactions, such as C-C bond formation reactions, has still been less investigated. In this study, a single-site Pd(II) catalyst was developed, where 2,2'-bipyridine-grafted periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO) was employed as the support of a Pd(II) complex. The overall performance of the single-site Pd(II) catalyst in the oxidative Heck reaction was then investigated. The investigation results show that the catalyst displays over 99% selectivity for the product formation with high reaction yield. Kinetic profiles further confirm its high catalytic efficiency, showing that the rate constant is nearly 40 times higher than that for the free Pd(II) salt. X-ray absorption spectroscopy reveals that the catalyst has remarkable lifetime and recyclability.

challenges associated with the lack of sufficiently active palladium catalysts. Currently used palladium catalysts are reactive only with electron-rich arenes, unless an excess of arene is used, which limits synthetic applications. Here we report a 2-pyridone ligand that binds to palladium and accelerates non-directed C–H functionalization with arene as the limiting reagent. This protocol is compatible with
