The methoxypalladation product >2> from the title complex (3) undergoes relatively slow decomposition in solution via at least two pathways.The major pathway leads to complexes containing the acetal MeSCH2CMe2CH2CH(OMe)2 or the corresponding aldehyde.An important intermediate in this pathway is the α-methoxyalkylpalladium(II) derivative>2> which has also been generated by reaction of MeSCH2CMe2CH2CH(Cl)OMe with bis(dibenzylideneacetone)palladium(0).The minor pathway involves hydride transfer between ligand molecules and leads to complexes containing both oxidised and reduced ligands.More efficient hydride transfer is observed when the product >2> from reaction of (3) with HgPh2 is treated with MeSCH2CMe2CH=CH2.
