[Pd{η3-CH2C(CH2Cl)CH 2}(μ-SPh)]2 is spontaneously transformed, in MeCN, into [Pd{η3-CH2C(CH2SPh)-CH 2}(Cl)]2, which has a novel thioether-bridged dimeric structure. This transformation is suggested to proceed by an attack of the thiolate anion at the methylene carbon bearing a Cl substituent of an ionic intermediate, [Pd{η3-(CH2C(CH2Cl)CH 2}(MeCN)2]+. [Pd{η3-CH2C(CR2Cl)CH 2}(μ-SPh)]2 (R = H, Me) reacts with PPh3 to give [Pd{η3-CH2C(CH2SPh)CR 2}(Cl)(PPh3)]. This transformation proceeds via an attack of the thiolate anion at the terminal allyl carbon of an ionic intermediate, [Pd{η3-CH2C(CH2Cl)CH2}(PPh 3)2]+, to give 2-phenylthiomethylallyl chloride, which undergoes an oxidative addition to the resulting Pd(0) complexes. [Pd{η3-CH2C(CR2Cl)CH 2}(Cl)(PPh3)] (R = H, Me) reacts with Bu3SnCH=CH2 to give [Pd{η3CH2C(CH2CH=CH2)CR 2}(Cl)(PPh3)] through a reductive elimination-oxidative addition sequence, starting from an intermediate, [Pd{η3-CH2C(CR2Cl)CH 2}(CH=CH2)(PPh3)].
