PdCl2 (dppf) is mainly used as a catalyst to catalyze cross-coupling reactions.

Similar to other Pd(II) and Ni(II) complexes, PdCl2(dppf) can effectively catalyze the cross-coupling reaction between halogenated alkenes, halogenated arenes or triflate aromatics and Grignard reagents. Achieve the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. Vinyl bromide and s-BuMgCl can react completely under the catalysis of PdCl2 (dppf) to obtain the coupling product (Formula 1)[1], but using other Pd catalysts will lead to isomeric products and reduction by-products.

Although ordinary Pd catalysts do not have the ability to activate organic sulfur compounds, PdCl2 (dppf) can realize the cross-coupling reaction between methyl sulfide and aryl Grignard reagent (Formula 2) [2]. Bromothiophene and thiophene Grignard reagent can obtain photosensitive trithiophene compounds under the catalysis of PdCl2 (dppf), and the methyl sulfide substituent in the substrate will not react (Formula 3) [3]. 【Kumada coupling reaction】

PdCl2(dppf) was also found to catalyze the iodine-zinc exchange reaction to obtain the intramolecular carbon zincation reaction of alkenes (Equation 4)[4].

PdCl2 (dppf) reagent can also catalyze Stille reaction and Suzuki reaction, such as the cross-coupling reaction between vinyl tin and aryl trifluoromethanesulfonic acid to obtain an intramolecular cyclization product (Formula 5) [5] , or a cross-coupling reaction between aryltin and aryltrifluoromethanesulfonic acid in a CO atmosphere to obtain an aryl ketone compound (Formula 6) [6]. [Examples of preparation of carboxylic acids and their derivatives by carbonyl insertion reaction]

PdCl2 (dppf) can also be used in the hydroesterification reaction of trimethylsilyl alkyne to obtain conjugated vinyl silicon compounds (Formula 7) [7].
