1,3-Di(2-pyridyl)benzene undergoes regioselective orthometalation with Pd(OAc)2 on the central aryl ring, giving rise to a dimeric complex in which four acetate units act as bridges between two doubly metalated ligands and each pyridine ligand coordinates different metal atom. The reaction chloride-containing Pd(II) complexes does not lead C−H activation but coordination without Pd−C bonds. Cycloplatination of 1,3-di(2-pyridyl)benzene takes place at C-2 benzene generating terdentate ligand....
