Novel methyl complexes [Pd(Me)(N-N-N)]X (N-N-N = flexible or rigid terdentate nitrogen ligand, X = Cl, SO3CF3, BAr′4) have been synthesized and fully characterized. All complexes readily underwent insertion of carbon monoxide resulting in the quantitative formation of complexes [Pd{C(O)Me}(N-N-N)]X [X = Cl (1d-6d), BAr′4 (1e-6e)]. Subsequently, complexes 2e-6e underwent quantitative insertion of norbornadiene, resulting in complexes [Pd{C7H8C(O)Me}(N-N-N)]BAr′4 (2f-6f). Unexpectedly, these complexes, including even those containing rigid terdentate nitrogen ligands, possess a structure in which the nitrogen ligand is coordinated in a bidentate fashion. A kinetic study of the reaction of norbornadiene with complexes 1e-6e revealed that the reactivity of complexes 1e-6e toward norbornadiene increases with increasing rigidity of the terdentate ligand, i.e. with increasing strain in the PdN3 moiety, which indicates that insertion very likely occurs via a mechanism involving nitrogen dissociation. This is fully supported by ab initio MO calculations on CO and ethylene insertion into carbon-palladium bonds of cationic model systems containing a rigid terdentate nitrogen ligand, which showed that the lowest-energy pathway for both insertion reactions consists of substitution of one of the distal nitrogen atoms of the rigid terdentate nitrogen ligand by the substrate, followed by a rate-determining migratory insertion of the substrate into the carbon-palladium bond.
