Kinetics and Mechanisms of Dicyclopalladation of Asymmetrically Substituted Azobenzenes

Recently, there is a growing interest in multiply cyclopalladated complexes as those compounds show interesting photochemical and photophysical properties and can be potentially useful for new technologies. Especially interesting are dicyclopalladated azobenzenes bearing two exchangeable solvent ligands which can be easily displaced via ligand substitution. The presence of such ligands makes dicyclopalladated azobenzenes ideal building blocks for variety of new simple species or supramolecular systems relevant for sensors and optical devices [1]. Although a number of studies of formation of cyclopalladated azobenzenes have been reported the amount of information on the kinetics of cyclopalladation is limited. Therefore, the kinetic and mechanistic issues involved in the formation of dicyclopalladated complexes in N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) will be discussed.
