Abstract: A comparative study of N-heterocyclic carbene Pd complexes in the head-to-head isoprene telomerization with methanol revealed significant impact of ligand structure as well as axial group structure on the catalyst activity. Some N,N'-diaryl substituted imidazol-2-ylidene, imidazolidin-2-ylidene and expanded-ring tetrahydropyrimidin-2-ylidene and tetrahydrodiazepin-2-ylidene based ligands were tested to explore the fundamental correlations between structure (ring carbene size along with the substituent sterical and electronic properties) and catalytic activity.
