Allylpalladium chloride dimer (Cat No.: M054816) is a yellow crystalline organometallic compound. It features two palladium(II) centers bridged by chloride ions and coordinated to η³-allyl ligands. Widely used as a catalyst precursor in organic synthesis, it plays a key role in allylic substitution, cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki and Heck), and polymerizations. Its high reactivity and versatility make it essential in forming C–C and C–N bonds, especially in the development of pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, and advanced materials.
