Abstract:
The synthesis and X-ray structural analysis of the title compound, [PdCl(2)(C(3)H(7)N)(C(18)H(15)P)].C(3)H(6)O, are described. The crystal structure contains discrete monomeric molecules of the carbene complex and solvent molecules separated by normal van der Waals distances. The Pd atom is four-coordinate in an essentially square-planar environment, with the chlorine ligands mutually cis; Pd-P = 2.2495 (7), Pd-Cl = 2.3508 (7) and 2.3600 (7), Pd-C 1.948 (2) and N-C(carbene) 1.274 (3) A.

The reaction begins with the nucleophilic addition between a phosphorus ylide and the carbonyl compound. Due to its carbanionic character, phosphorus ylide acts as a strong nucleophile and attacks the electrophilic carbonyl group. This generates a charge-separated dipolar intermediate called betaine. The negatively charged oxygen atom and...
