The C-H activation of C-3-unsubstituted 1,4-benzodiazepin-2(3H)-ones (LH = 2a-c) (2a= 1-methyl-5-phenyl-1H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2(3H)-one, 2b = 1-benzyl-5-phenyl-1H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2(3H)-one, 2c = benzyl-2-(2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1,4-benzodiazepin-1-yl)acetate) with Na2PdCl4 afforded the insoluble palladacycles [(L)PdCl]2 3a-c. Treatment ofthe latter with triphenylphosphine afforded the soluble monomeric triphenylphosphineanalogues [(L)Pd(PPh3)Cl] 4a-c. 1-Methyl-3-(2-(methylthio)ethyl)-5-phenyl-1H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2(3H)-one (LH = 2d) reacted with Na2PdCl4 or with PdCl2(MeCN)2 to afford themonomeric cis-S-N-coordinated complex 5d of the type [(LH)PdCl2]. 3-((tert-Butylthio)methyl)-1-methyl-5-phenyl-1H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2(3H)-one, 2e, reacted with Pd(OAc)2 inacetic acid and, following LiCl metathesis, yielded the monomeric cis-S-N-bound pincerpalladacycle 6f. X-ray structures of 5d and 4a have been determined. 3a and 6f were foundto be effective precatalysts for Suzuki coupling reactions, and 3a, 3c, and 4a were effectiveprecatalysts in Heck couplings across a range of substrates.
