A new decarbonylation reaction is observed for [(K2-acetate)Pd(K2-diphosphine)]+ complexes. Gas-phase IR experiments identify the product as [CH3Pd(OP(Ph2)CH2PPh2)]+. DFT calculations uncovered a plausible mechanism involving O atom abstraction by the diphosphine ligand within the coordination sphere to yield the acetyl complex, [CH3COPd(OP(Ph2)CH2PPh2)]+, which then undergoes decarbonylation.
