Synthesis and X-ray structure of cationic β-diimine palladium complexes containing π-methallyl ligand

“…In addition much attention has been paid to these compounds as a result of their importance as intermediate in palladium catalyzed allylic substitution reactions. Attack of a nucleophile moiety on a cationic palladium p-allyl complex is nowdays conventionally accepted as the crucial step in the catalytic cycle [4][5][6].…”

Iridium-Catalysed Allylic Substitution: Stereochemical Aspects and Isolation of IrIII Complexes Related to the Catalytic Cycle

“…The latter values are very unusual for (π-allyl)Ir III complexes, [8aϪ8d,30c,36] although values at similarly low field are known for (π-allyl)Pd complexes. [33] Similar to complex 30, the resonances of C-2 appear at fairly low field, δ ϭ 114.5 and 107.9 ppm for the minor and major isomer, respectively.…”

(Phosphanyloxazoline)palladium Complexes, Part I: (η3-1,3-Dialkylallyl)(phosphanyloxazoline)palladium Complexes: X-Ray Crystallographic Studies, NMR Investigations, and Quantum-Chemical Calculations

“…A similar trend is observed in phenyl-substituted allylic ligands. [17] The enhanced steric effect of the tBu relative to the iPr group on the allyl moiety is illustrated by the top views of complexes 6 and 7 ( Figure 3). The C1 a -C2 a -C3 a angles of 125 AE 38 are similar to those in other h 3 -allyl complexes.…”
