Chloro(1-t-butylindenyl)palladium(II) dimer

Reaction

Starting material used to prepare monomeric chloro(t-butylindenyl)(ligand)palladium complexes.

Uses

The following palladium dimer is a precatalyst scaffold for cross-coupling reactions originally reported by the Hazari research group. When used with an selected ligand, the precatalyst exhibits superior activity over a wide array of cross-coupling reactions and under a variety of conditions.
