Hydrogenation Versus Hydrosilylation: The Substantial Impact of a Palladium Capsule on the Catalytic Outcome.

ABSTRACT: A palladium capsule, made of three cavitands, namely P,P-dichlorido{5,17-bis[5-(diphenylphosphanyl)-4(24),6(10),12(16),18(22)-tetramethylenedioxy-2,8,14,20-tetrapentylresorcin[4]arenyl-17-oxymthyl]-4(24),6(10),12(16),18(22)-tetramethylenedioxy-2,8,14,20-tetrapentylresorcin[4]arene}palladium(II) (1), was synthetized by coordination of the corresponding diphosphinated ligand and the palladium precursor [PdCl₂(PhCN)₂] in 27% yield. The obtained P,P-chelate complex was fully characterized by elemental analysis, NMR and mass spectrometry. Molecular dynamics simulations carried out on the metallo-capsule showed the structure made by the three cavitands was slightly distorted over the 1 μs of the simulation.
