Binary α unsaturated palladium carboxylates have been synthesized by substitution of α unsatur ated acids RCOOH (R is CH 2 =C(Me), MeCH=CH, PhCH=CH) for the acetate ion in Pd 3 (μ MeCOO) 6 . These carboxylates react with amines A (A is morpholine (M), methylmorpholine (MM), or thiomorpholine (MS)) to give trans Pd(A) 2 (RCOO) 2 similar to trans A 2 (MeCO 2 ) 2 . The structures of the trans Pd(A) 2 (RCOO) 2 complexes (R is MeCH=CH; A is M, MM, MS) have been determined by X ray crystallog raphy. The effect of solvent on the crystal structure of the complexes has been demonstrated for trans (MeCH=CHCO 2 ) 2 Pd(C 4 H 9 NO) 2 as an example. The amination reaction of palladium carbonyl crotonate with a secondary amine, morpholine, has been studied for the first time. The reaction involves disproportion ation of Pd(I) into Pd(0) and Pd(II) and leads to the first unsaturated palladium(II) carbamoyl carboxylatepalladium carbamoyl crotonate trans (OC 4 H 8 NH) 2 Pd[OC 4 H8NC(=O)](MeCH=CHCO 2 ) ⋅ H 2 O, as well as to trans M 2 Pd(MeCH=CHCO 2 ) 2 and (C 4 H 10 NO) + (MeCH=CHCO 2 ) -. The structures of these compounds have been proved by X ray crystallography.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
