Abstract
Oxygenation of cyclopalladated benzylamine
complexes of the type [Pd(C&CH&Me2-2)X] ( I , X =
(MeCN)*F4; 2, X = C&CH&Me2-2; 3, X = Oc&-
CHflMez-2; 5, X = C1) with tert-butyl hydroperoxide
(TBHP) and a vanadium catalyst (e.g. VO(acac)d affords
the corresponding phenolate complexes. The rate of
oxygenation increases strongly with the nucleophilicity
of the organopalladium substrate. Complex
