Oxidative addition of organic halides on palladium(0) complexes stabilized by dimethylfumarate and quinoline-based N-P or N-S spectator ligands

Six Pd(0) complexes stabilized by the olefin dimethylfumarate and bidentate ligands based on the quinoline frame were synthesized, characterized and reacted with four different aryl and alkyl halides. The ensuing reactivities were assessed and the solid state structures of one starting complex and of one reaction product have been resolved.27
