Abstract
Macrocycles consisting of a 20-membered ring containing two imidazolium salt functionalities and of the formula [PhCHN(CHCHCH)Im(CHCHCH)][Br] (Im = imidazole = 3a, benzimidazole = 3b) were synthesized in 70-75% yields. These salts serve as precursors to macrocycles containing two N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) moieties. Reaction of the macrocyclic salts 3a and 3b with silver oxide afforded macrocyclic-bis(NHC)silver(i) complexes 4a and 4b. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies of macrocyclic-bis(NHC)silver(i) complex 4a revealed a tetranuclear silver core with a short Ag-Ag distance (2.9328 Å). Complexes 4a and 4b serve as carbene transfer reagents to Pd. The treatment of macrocyclic-bis(NHC)silver(i) complexes 4a and 4b with one equivalent of PdCl(MeCN) in methylene chloride afforded square-planar trans-macrocyclic-bis(NHC)Pd(ii)X complexes 5a and 5b. Preliminary screening of these palladium complexes showed they are competent precatalysts for Heck and Suzuki coupling reactions.
