Organopalladium(II) complexes of general formula [PdR(N-O)L] [R = Ph, N-O = pyridinecarboxylate (pyca), L = P(C6H11)3; R = Ph, N-O = 6-methylpyridinecarboxylate (mpyca), L = PPh3, PMePh2, P(C6H11)3 or PEt3; R = Ph, N-O = 4-nitropyridinecarboxylate (npyca), L = P(C6H11)3; R = Ph, N-O = 6-methyl-4-nitropyridinecarboxylate, L = P(C6H11)3; R = Me, N-O = mpyca, L = PPh3, P(CH2Ph)3 or P(C6H11)3; R = Me, N-O = npyca, L = PPh3, PMePh2 or P(C6H11)3] have been prepared, and their carbonylation reactions studied in detail. Kinetic studies of the CO-insertion process have indicated that the rate of reaction decreases as the basicity of the phosphine, L, increases. Complexes containing the highly basic phosphine P(C6H11)3 only undergo carbonylation if hemilability of the chelating ligand is promoted (by substitution of the N-O chelate). Substitution of the N-O ligand modifies the carbonylation pathway and provides an alternative route from that generally observed for palladium(II) and platinum(II) hydrocarbyl complexes of pyca. A mechanism for insertion of CO involving partial dissociation of the N-O chelate is proposed for these complexes. The crystal stucture of [PdMe(mpyca)(PPh3)] has been determined. The complex has square-planar co-ordination with the nitrogen of pyca trans to the phosphorus. Considerable distortion of the inner co-ordination sphere is evident, caused by steric interactions betwen the σ-methyl ligand and the methyl group on the N-O ligand.
