Pd(TFA) 2 is another reactive catalyst for transmetallation of ArGeEt 3. It has an electron-deficient Pd center and provides thermodynamic driving force by forming TFA–GeEt 3. Based on this strategy, an oxidative C–O cross-coupling method catalyzed by Pd(TFA) 2 was reported. The reaction proceeded through a Pd(II)/Pd(IV) catalytic cycle.
