Synthesis of a sterically modulated pyridine–NHC palladium complex and its reactivity towards ethylene

Abstract

A new cationic pyridine-carbene palladium complex has been prepared that features a C,N-bidentate coordinating ligand with a shielded pyridine and a sterically less protected carbene moiety; evaluation of this complex in ethylene polymerization revealed competitive reductive elimination processes and provides guidelines for further catalyst design.
