Abstract
Abstract Methylation of 2-(1-imidazolyl)cyclohexanol ( 1a ) and of the acylated derivative 1b using CH 3 I gives the corresponding imidazolium iodides 2a , b . These are reacted with Pd(OAc) 2 to yield the carbene complexes trans -L 2 PdI 2 ( 3a , b ) bearing functionalized heterocyclic carbene ligands, which have been characterized spectroscopically and by X-ray structure analysis.
