General description

Palladium(II) acetylacetonate (Pd(acac)2) is a metal-organic complex. Sublimation of Pd(acac)2 has been investigated by thermogravimetry and XRD. The temperature range for the sublimation of Pd(acac)2, without undergoing thermal decomposition, was determined to be 100-160°C in the presence of inert gas helium.

Application

Application Guide for Palladium Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions
Palladium(II) acetylacetonate (Pd(acac)2) was used in the following studies:
  • Typical high-temperature organic solution phase protocol for the preparation of monodisperse CuPd alloy nanoparticles (NPs).
  • Preparation of [(NHC)Pd(acac)L] (where L=Me, NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) complexes. These complexes efficiently catalyze the Heck reaction of activated aryl bromides.
  • As catalyst in the decarboxylative cross-coupling of arylcarboxylic acids with aryl halides.

Metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, notably those permitting C-C bond formation, have witnessed a meteoritic development and are now routinely employed as a powerful synthetic tool both in academia and in industry. In this context, palladium is arguably the most studied transition

Monodisperse CuPd alloy nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by using a typical high-temperature organic solution phase protocol comprising the coreduction of copper(II) acetylacetonate and palladium(II) acetylacetonate by morpholine-borane complex in oleylamine and 1-octadecene solution at 80 °C. The presented synthesis protocol

A new strategy for the regiospecific construction of unsymmetrical biaryls is presented, in which easily available salts of carboxylic acids are decarboxylated in situ to give arylmetal species that serve as the nucleophilic component in a catalytic cross-coupling reaction with

Ideal organic syntheses involve the rapid construction of C-C bonds, with minimal use of functional group interconversions. The Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling (SMC) is a powerful way to form biaryl linkages, but the relatively similar reactivity of electrophilic partners makes iterative syntheses
