✦ Synopsis
Oxidative cleavage of palladium-carbon bonds where a nucleophile replaces palladium (eq 1) occurs in catalytic systems utilizing palladium 2.3 and has recently been used to achieve oxy-

Acetoxypalladation of double bonds is known to be a trans-process.
12 Consequently, the cleavage of the palladium-carbon bond by cupric chloride at high chloride concentration takes place with inversion. This is in contrast to recent results that indicate a radical mechanism in the copper(X) cleavage of a palladium-carbon bond but is consistent with the idea 2c that oxidative cleavage occurs with predominant inversion in the presence of excess of free nucleophile.
