We report a new approach to synthesize palladium complexes through Ag2O-promoted hydrolytic ring opening followed by palladium coordination. The novelty of Ag2O-promoted hydrolysis in comparison with the commonly used base-mediated hydrolysis lies in the anion-controlled product selectivity in the synthesis of pincer-type palladium complexes. Moreover, these palladium complexes have been tested in the Suzuki reaction using aryl bromides in methanol and H2O, respectively. In comparison with palladium complexes with normal coordination, the palladium complexes generated from the hydrolytic ring-opening coordination demonstrate excellent catalytic activity.
