A series of monomeric arylpalladium(II) complexes LPd(Ph)X (L = 1-AdP tBu2, PtBu3, or Ph 5FcPtBu2 (Q-phos); X = Br, I, OTf) containing a single phosphine ligand have been prepared. Oxidative addition of aryl bromide or aryl iodide to bis-ligated palladium(0) complexes of bulky, trialkylphosphines or to Pd(dba)2 (dba = dibenzylidene acetone) in the presence of 1 equiv of phosphine produced the corresponding arylpalladium(II) complexes in good yields. In contrast, oxidative addition of phenyl chloride to the bis-ligated palladium(0) complexes did not produce arylpalladium(II) complexes. The oxidative addition of phenyl triflate to PdL2 (L = 1-AdPtBu2, PtBu 3, or Q-phos) also did not form arylpalladium(II) complexes. The reaction of silver triflate with (1-AdPtBu2)Pd(Ph)Br furnished the corresponding arylpalladium(II) triflate in good yield. The oxidative addition of phenyl bromide and iodide to Pd(Q-phos)2 was faster than oxidative addition to Pd(1-AdPtBu2)2 or Pd(PtBu3)2. Several of the arylpalladium complexes were characterized by X-ray diffraction. All of the arylpalladium(II) complexes are T-shaped monomers. The phenyl ligand, which has the largest trans influence, is located trans to the open coordination site. The complexes appear to be stabilized by a weak agostic interaction of the metal with a ligand C-H bond positioned at the fourth-coordination site of the palladium center. The strength of the Pd...H bond, as assessed by tools of density functional theory, depended upon the donating properties of the ancillary ligands on palladium.

We report the isolation and structural characterization of several monomeric arylpalladium(II) halide complexes containing tri-tert-butyl phosphine, 1-adamantyl-di-tert-butylphosphine, or 2-adamantyl-di-tert-butylphosphine. X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, and theoretical studies indicated that the complexes may be stabilized by agostic interactions. For example, the distance from the closest hydrogen atom to the palladium metal center in the X-ray structure of the 1-adamantyl-phenylpalladium bromide complex 1 was 2.26(3) A. The calculated Pd-H distance of 2.28 A and harmonic vibrational frequencies were in agreement with the measured distance, but Wiberg bond indices indicated only weak M-H-C interactions. Addition of 2-adamantyl-di-tert-butyl phosphine to 1 led to ligand exchange and formation of 2-adamantyl-di-tert-butyl phosphine complex 2. Addition of P(t-Bu)3 generated free aryl bromide and Pd[P(t-Bu)3]2. Reactivity of complex 1 with nucleophiles provided evidence of the intermediacy of these complexes in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. Complex 1 reacted with amine and base to form the corresponding arylamine, with tert-butoxide to form the corresponding ether, with boronic acid and fluoride to form the corresponding biaryl, and with styrene to form stilbene. This complex also catalyzed the reaction of bromobenzene with diphenylamine in the presence of base to produce 94% of the amination product in 45 min at room temperature. This rate is comparable to the reaction rate of in situ generated catalysts. Copyright
