Reactivity of palladium(II) methyl complexes towards CO2: formation of carbonate complexes

Author

Summary, in English

Treatment of a benzene solution of (tmeda)PdMe2 or (dppe)PdMe2 with carbon dioxide gives the corresponding methyl bicarbonate complex, (L-L)PdMe(O2COH). These were characterised by NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Under strictly dry conditions no reaction was observed. Recrystallisation of the tmeda bicarbonate complex from acetone yields the corresponding eta(2)-carbonate complex, which was characterised by X-ray crystallography. The reaction probably proceeds through attack by free carbonic acid on the dimethyl complex. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
