Stereo and regioselectivity in the phenylation of cationic allylpalladium(II) α-diimine complexes by tetraphenylborate anion
The reaction of the cationic complex [Pd(4-methoxy-1,3-η3-cyclohexenyl)(py-2-CHNC6H4OMe-4)]+ (1) with BPh4− in the presence of fumaronitrile yields trans-3-methoxy-6-phenylcyclohexene (2a) and trans-4-methoxy-3-phenylcyclohexene (2b), in ca. 1 : 1 molar ratio. The trans stereochemistry of these products implies that the phenylation of the allyl ligand involves prior transfer of a phenyl group from BPh4− to the metal, followed by reductive coupling of the organic moieties. In the reactions of [Pd(η3-1,1-R1,R2-C3H3)(NN′)]+ (3) [NN′ 4-MeOH4C6NCHCHNC6H4OMe-4; py-2-CHNR (R C6H4OMe-4, Me, or CMe3), 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy); R1 H, R2 Ph, Me; R1 R2 Me; with BPh4− in the presence of …
eta1-Allypalladium complexes with tridentate PNP’ ligand for the assembly of modified Screen Printed Electrodes: an electrochemical study.
Specific Pd-based organometallic complex, in particular the [Pd(η1-CH2–CH=CH2)(P–N–P’)]BF4 was used for the assembly of chemically modified Screen Printed Electrodes (SPEs) and their electrochemical reactivity was also investigated. For this purpose potassium ferricyanide, hexaammineruthenium(III) chloride, sodium hexachloroiridate-(III) hydrate, ascorbic acid (AA), uric acid (UA), acetaminophen (Ac), guanine (G) and adenine (A) were used to study the electron-transfer processes, which occurred at modified SPEs, fabricated by using the [Pd(η1-CH2–CH=CH2)(P–N–P’)]BF4, applying the drop casting procedure. Interesting results were obtained in the case of the guanine (G) quantitative detection,…
