Abstract The supramolecular palladium dithiolate complexes, [Pd2(dppe)2{S(C6H4)nS}]2(OTf)4 and [Pd2(dppe)2(SCH2C6H4CH2S)]4(OTf)8 (dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane) has been investigated as highly stable and robust catalysts in Heck C-C coupling reactions. The arylation of butyl acrylate and styrene with various aryl bromides under optimized catalytic systems, showed excellent yield and turnover number (410,000) of the products. The tetranuclear complexes showed slightly higher catalytic activity than the octanuclear complex.
