trans-Spanning ferrocene amidodiphosphine ligand: Synthesis, palladium complexes and catalytic use in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling

Abstract

1-{N-[(2-(Diphenylphosphino)phenyl)methyl]carbamoyl}-1'-(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene coordinates to palladium as a P,P-bridging or trans-P,P-chelating donor. Catalytic activity of the prepared complexes was demonstrated in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling.
