Abstract

2-Phenylaniline reacted with Pd (OAc) 2 in toluene at room temperature for 24 h in a one-to- one molar ratio and with the system PdCl2, NaCl and NaOAc in a 1 (2-phenylaniline): 1 (PdCl2): 2 (NaCl): 1 (NaOAc) molar ratio in methanol at room temperature for one week to give the dinuclear cyclopalladated compounds (μ-X) 2 [Pd {κ2-N2′, C1-2-(2′-NH2C6H4) C6H4}] 2 [1a (X= OAc) and 1b (X= Cl)] in high yield. Moreover, the reaction between 2- ...
