Treatment of Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 with 2-bromo-3-hydroxypyridine [C 5 H 3 N(OH)Br] and 3-amino-2-bromopyridine [C 5 H 3 N(NH 2 )Br] in dichloromethane at ambient temperature cause the oxidative addition reaction to produce the palladium complex [Pd(PPh 3 ) 2 {h 1 -C 5 H 3 N(OH)}(Br)], 2 and [Pd(PPh 3 ) 2 {h 1 -C 5 H 3 N(NH 2 )}(Br)], 3, by substituting two triphenylphosphine ligands, respectively. In dichloromethane solution of complexes 2 and 3 at ambient temperature for 3 days, it undergo displacement of the triphenylphosphine ligand to form the dipalladium complexes [Pd(PPh 3 )Br] 2 {m,h 2 -C 5 H 3 N(OH)} 2 , 4 and [Pd(PPh 3 )Br] 2 {m,h 2 -C 5 H 3 N(NH 2 )} 2 , 5, in which the two 3-hydroxypyridine and 3-aminopyridine ligands coordinated through carbon to one metal center and bridging the other metal through nitrogen atom, respectively. Complexes 4 and 5 are characterized by X-ray diffraction analyses.
