Selective E to Z isomerization of 1,3-Dienes Enabled by A Dinuclear Mechanism
Geometric E to Z double C=C bond isomerization is challenging as it requires kinetic trapping of the Z-isomer with injection of chemical energy. Here, the authors report a dinuclear Pd(I)−Pd(I) complex that mediates selective isomerization of E-1,3-dienes to the Z-isomers without photoirradiation.
