Self-assembled dendrimer-bound Pd(II) complexes via acid-base interactions and their catalysis for allylic Amination
The Pd complexes were noncovalently attached on the periphery of poly(propyleneimine) dendrimers based on acid-base interactions. The dendritic Pd complexes were found to possess catalytic activities for allylic amination, and to be able to mimick the catalytic activity of the analogous monomeric Pd complex catalyst.
