C(Me)C6H4}(m-Cl)PdCl] [11] were prepared by pub-
lished procedures. All reactions were carried out using
Schlenk techniques under nitrogen atmosphere. Solvents
were distilled and dried over calcium dihydride (hexane
and methylene chloride) or drierite (acetone), and
degassed by standard methods prior to use.

C(Me)C6H4}(m-Cl)PdCl] (100 mg, 0.1 mmol) was dis-
solved in acetone (50 ml) and PPh3 (104 mg, 0.4 mmol)
was added to the red solution. The mixture was refluxed
under nitrogen atmosphere for 6 h. Under these condi-
tions, a yellow solid appeared; this was isolated by
filtration, washed with acetone and dried in vacuo (10

PPh3 (73 mg, 0.28 mmol). In 30 min, the complex
dissolved to give a yellow solution. After stirring for 2 h,
the solution was filtered through kieselgur to remove
any trace of solid and the solvent was removed in vacuo
to saturation. An excess of hexane (25 ml) was added.
Under these conditions, a yellow solid appeared; this
