title: Unusual transmetallation-induced formation of a C2-symmetric tetrapallada-macrocycle.
abstract: We report the formation of a tetrapallada-macrocycle induced by an unusual transmetallation, in which an anionic bidentate chelate ligand is replaced by a phenyl ligand from phenylboronic acid, leaving the chloride ligands intact.
