Kinetic and mechanistic aspects of sulfur abstraction from Pd2X2(μ-S)(μ-dpm)2 using dpm or dpmMe [X = halide, dpm = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane, dpmMe = 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane] and catalytic conversion of H<su

Solution kinetic and mechanistic studies were performed on the abstraction of sulfur from Pd₂X₂(μ-S)(μ-dpm)₂ [X = Cl (2a), Br (2b), I (2c)] using bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dpm) to give, respectively, Pd₂X
