Reaction of carbon dioxide with a palladium-alkyl complex supported by a bis-NHC framework.
The reactivity of a dimethyl palladium complex supported by a dicarbene chelate (MDC(Mes))PdMe(2) towards CO(2) has been investigated. In the presence of trace H(2)O, this reaction yields the corresponding methyl bicarbonate complex (MDC(Mes))PdMe(O(2)COH), which goes on to give the corresponding κ(2)-carbonato complex upon crystallization (MDC(Mes))Pd(CO(3)). This chemistry, as well as related protonolysis by acetic acid was monitored by a combination of techniques including React-IR spectroscopy.
