Trifunctional <i>N</i>,<i>N</i>,<i>O</i>-Terdentate Amido/Pyridyl Carboxylate Ligated Pd(II) Complexes for Heck and Suzuki Reactions

Abstract

Trifunctional N,N,O-terdentate amido/pyridyl carboxylate Pd(II) complexes were highly active and stable phosphine-free catalysts for Heck and room-temperature Suzuki reactions with high turnover numbers up to ca. 10(4).
