Pd acetylacetonate

Fluorolysis of metal alkoxide and Pd"acetylacetonate in alcohol with stoichiometric amounts of aHF post-fluorination of the dried product with gaseous HF reduction of Pd(acac)2 with H2. Pd content of all sample adjusted to 5 wt%. 

Attention should be paid to the fact that the ratio of Pd and phosphine ligand in active catalysts is crucial for determining the reaction paths. It is believed that dba is displaced completely with phosphines when Pd2(dba)3 is mixed with phosphines in solution. However the displacement is not eom-plcte[16]. Also, it should be considered that dba itself is a monodentate alkene ligand, and it may inhibit the coordination of a sterically hindered olefinic bond in substrates. In such a case, no reaction takes place, and it is recommended to prepare Pd(0) catalysts by the reaction of Pd(OAc)2 with a definite amount of phosphinesflO]. In this way a coordinatively unsaturated Pd(0) catalyst can be generated. Preparation of Pd3(tbaa)3 tbaa == tribenzylidene-acetylacetone) was reported[17], but the complex actually obtained was Pd(dba)2[l8],... 

The oxidation reaction between butadiene and oxygen and water in the presence of CO2 or SO2 produces 1,4-butenediol. The catalysts consist of iron acetylacetonate and LiOH (99). The same reaction was also observed at 90°C with Group (VIII) transition metals such as Pd in the presence of I2 or iodides (100). The butenediol can then be hydrogenated to butanediol [110-63-4]. In the presence of copper compounds and at pH 2, hydrogenation leads to furan (101). 

The diketonates can form Lewis base adducts such as 5-coordinate Pd[P(o-tolyl)3](CF3COCHCOCF3)2 (Figure 3.25), though with acetylacetone square planar adducts of the type M(acac)2(PR3)2 are usually obtained, where the diketone is monodentate O-bonded [63]. 

We synthesized uniform CU2O coated Cu nanoparticles from the thermal decomposition of copper acetylacetonate, followed by air oxidation. We successfully used these nanoparticles for the catalysts for Ullmann type amination coupling reactions of aryl chlorides. We synthesized core/shell-like Ni/Pd bimetallic nanoparticles from the consecutive thermal decomposition of metal-surfactant complexes. The nanoparticle catalyst was atom-economically applied for various Sonogashira coupling reactions. 

The Pd-based catalysts were prepared by wet impregnation of the support with Pd(C5H702)2 dissolved in toluene. After drying at 373 K, the acetylacetonate was decomposed under O2 up to 773 K (0.5 K/min) The catalytic behavior of these solids was compared to that of a reference Pt-Rh/Al203 solid. Some characteristics of the solids are reported in Table 1. 

Section B gives some examples of metal-catalyzed cyclopropanations. In Entries 7 and 8, Cu(I) salts are used as catalysts for intermolecular cyclopropanation by ethyl diazoacetate. The exo approach to norbornene is anticipated on steric grounds. In both cases, the Cu(I) salts were used at a rather high ratio to the reactants. Entry 9 illustrates use of Rh2(02CCH3)4 as the catalyst at a much lower ratio. Entry 10 involves ethyl diazopyruvate, with copper acetylacetonate as the catalyst. The stereoselectivity of this reaction was not determined. Entry 11 shows that Pd(02CCH3) is also an active catalyst for cyclopropanation by diazomethane. 

Palladium(II) acetate was found to be a good catalyst for such cyclopropanations with ethyl diazoacetate (Scheme 19) by analogy with the same transformation using diazomethane (see Sect. 2.1). The best yields were obtained with monosubstituted alkenes such as acrylic esters and methyl vinyl ketone (64-85 %), whereas they dropped to 10-30% for a,p-unsaturated carbonyl compounds bearing alkyl groups in a- or p-position such as ethyl crotonate, isophorone and methyl methacrylate 141). In none of these reactions was formation of carbene dimers observed. 7>ms-benzalaceto-phenone was cyclopropanated stereospecifically in about 50% yield PdCl2 and palladium(II) acetylacetonate were less efficient catalysts 34 >. Diazoketones may be used instead of diazoesters, as the cyclopropanation of acrylonitrile by diazoacenaph-thenone/Pd(OAc)2 (75 % yield) shows142).

Complexes of dithioacetylacetone (SacSac) have been reviewed.1830 As with acetylacetone complexes, th. chemical shift of the ring methine proton has been carefully studied for metal and substituent effects in order to probe for any aromatic or anisotropic behavior in these six-membered ring complexes.1830,1831 Much of the earlier work and theories on these complexes are summarized in an electrochemical study of the dithioketone complexes of Ni, Pd and Pt.1832 The complexes undergo two successive reversible one-electron reductions in the range -0.8 to —1.8 V yielding the MSJ and MS2- core.1832,1833 The monoanion MSJ is usually... 

Hydrolysis of Pd(MeCOCHMe)2 in aqueous methanol is considered to involve Pd(0,0-MeCOCHCOMe)(0-MeCOCHCOMe)(MeOH) as an intermediate from which the monodentate acetylacetonate ligand is then solvolyzed.221 Subsequent studies on Lewis base complexes of palladium bis(diketonate) complexes provide ample support for the proposed intermediate. A pulse radiolysis study of the kinetics of aquation of M(MeCOCHCOMe) " (M = Cr, Co) indicates that an 17,-172 equilibrium involving one or more of the acetylacetonate ligands occurs, associated with an acid-catalyzed removal of the monodentate ligand.222 Treatment of Cu(MeCOCHCOMe)2 with picric acid in moist dichloromethane affords a partially hydrolyzed material, Cu(MeCOCHC-0Me)(H20)2[C6H2(N02)30], proposed to contain square pyramidal five-coordinate copper with the oxygen atom from the picrate moiety at the apex.223...
