Is silver a mere terminal oxidant in palladium catalyzed C–H bond activation reactions?

Abstract: We disclose an intriguing and a potentially general role for one of the most commonly used silver salt additives whose molecular understanding continues to remain rather vague in the contemporary practice of palladium catalysis.

“…This reaction is favored without the use of CO 2 or another transient directing group, we hypothesize, because chelation with the allyl group of the amine likely overcomes the formation of less reactive palladium diamine complexes. 76 The electron-rich Pd-species can then undergo oxidative addition to the aryl iodide to give VII , followed by reductive elimination to give the 3,3-diarylproduct VIII , which exchanges to give the minor Z -product. Because the reaction is performed with Ag I , some Pd 0 can be reoxidized to Pd II , 76 and as a result, both pathways are able to occur with similar rates throughout the reaction, as evidenced by the lack of change in the E / Z ratio throughout the reactions.…”

This also explains why the degradation of Pd II occurs throughout the reaction (see Figure 1 ).…”

“…Previous studies have suggested that Ag additives can play many important roles in C-H functionalization reactions, for example, by serving as bases or halide scavengers [85,86], or as terminal oxidants [87]. More recently, it has also been proposed that the Ag might, in fact, have much deeper roles in the mechanisms of different C-H functionalization reactions, by for example enabling the formation of different bimetallic Ag-Pd species that constitutes key intermediates in their respective catalytic cycles [88][89][90].…”
