Doubly Cyclopalladated Complexes of Azobenzenes

Since the first report, in 1965, describing cyclopalladation of azobenzene1, such reactions have attracted considerable attention by a number of research groups. Palladacycles have been proven useful in organic synthesis, catalysis, photochemistry and even as bioactive compounds.2-5 Since very little is known about the mechanism and reaction dynamics of cyclopalladation reaction with azobenzenes, we have studied the dynamics of formation of doubly cyclopalladated species in dmf. The new insight into the mechanism of cyclopalladation reaction of azobenzenes and reactivity of all involved species in cyclopalladation reaction will enable rational design of the compounds with desired properties.
