Pd(PPh3)Cl2 in Stille coupling
« on: July 30, 2020, 03:42:46 PM »
Hello everyone,
I´ve performed a Stille coupling reaction with Pd(PPh3)Cl2 in dry DMF. For coupling reaction it is necessary to use Pd(0) instead of Pd(II). In my case I used only Pd(PPh3)Cl2 without any reducing agent (amines, phosphine) according to literature and reaction worked very well. Does anybody know how I got Pd(0) from Pd(II) in Pd(PPh3)Cl2?
Thank you

I think it is reduced by the RSn-reagent.

I am not sure but tin can be converted to tin chloride. It can mean that alkyl-tin bond cleaves.

Could you have PdII - PdIV cycle as well?

Its the tin-reagent or PPh3 that reduces the Pd if I understand correct; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stille_reaction
