A PdII complex bearing a benzimidazole-derived ligand with potentially "mesoionic and remote" character and its catalytic activity
The oxidative addition of palladium(0) to the C2-protected 5-bromo-2-methylbenzimidazolium tetrafluoroborate 3 affords the complex trans-[PdBr(bimy)(PPh3)2]BF4 (4), which is the first complex of an unprecedented benzimidaz
