Synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity of novel N-heterocyclic carbene-palladium complexes†
Abstract
The reaction of Pd(OAc)2 with 1-(benzhydryl)-3-(alkyl)benzimidazolium salts 1a–d yields trans-bis[1-(benzhydryl)-3-(alkyl)benzimidazolin-2-ylidene]dibromopalladium(II) complexes (2a–d) which were characterized by
