Efficient Heck Reactions Catalyzed by Palladium(0) and -(II) Complexes Bearing N-Heterocyclic Carbene and Amide Functionalities
A palladium(0) NHC complex Pd0(LH1)2(MA) (MA = maleic anhydride) was prepared from the amide-imidazolium salt [LH1H2]Cl (H1 = NH proton; H2 NCHN proton). The X-ray diffraction studies confirmed that a η2-MA ligand and two monodentate NHC ligands with the H1 protons remaining intact are coordinated....

Zusammenfassung: | A palladium(0) NHC complex Pd0(LH1)2(MA) (MA = maleic anhydride) was prepared from the amide-imidazolium salt [LH1H2]Cl (H1 = NH proton; H2 NCHN proton). The X-ray diffraction studies confirmed that a η2-MA ligand and two monodentate NHC ligands with the H1 protons remaining intact are coordinated. These NH protons are involved in intra- or intermolecular hydrogen bonds stabilizing the solid-state structure. Degradation of Pd(LH1)2(MA) in air leads to the formation of the chelate complex trans-PdIIL2 and other unidentified products. Negative-ion electrospray mass spectrometry revealed some intriguing Pd(0) species, including a 14-electron [Pd0L]− species that bears only a bidentate NHC/amido ligand. The anionic amido group imparts a high electron density on a palladium center, as shown by X-ray photoelectron study. The palladium(0) precatalyst is highly efficient in catalyzing Heck reactions with activated aryl chlorides in ionic liquid. For deactivating aryl chlorides and bulky aryl bromides, cis-PdIIL2 is more effective. A range of Heck-coupled products can be prepared by Pd0(LH1)2(MA) and cis-PdIIL2. The latter complex also successfully mediates one-pot sequential Heck/Heck and Suzuki/Heck coupling reactions with 4-bromochlorobenzene as substrate. |
