 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 1 N l x CH C ClI-C( Cl-l-C The new products of this Invention Include palladly Y y um(ll) compounds represented by the following formulas: V V&#39;.[ VII m e1 b I CH2 .ch on J I II \ N X I1 i XI I I III IV wherein: wherein:

The aryl and is lower y of p y heterocyclyl Y groups can contain inert substitun is 0, l, 2, or 3; ents such as halo, lower alkyl, and lower alkoxy. X is lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, or phenyl; and One skilled in the art will recognize that formulas V, Ch is a monovalent, bidentate chelate ligand formed VI, and VII are equivalent and are different ways of by removal of an acidic hydrogen from a betarepresentingachelate ligand Ch as defined above. Fordiketofle, a beta-k6) aldehyde 3 beta-k6) ester, mulas V and VI are classical representations in which a m or bis (hydrocarbylimino) derivative of a an arbitrary distinction is made between coordinate and covalent bonds joining the Z groups and the palladium, whereas formula VII is a more modern representation in which a distinction between different kinds of localized bonds is not made. One skilled in the art will also recognize that when the Y groups in a given molecule are different, two isomers of the compound will be possible.  
  One skilled in the art will also readily see from the description so far given that the new compounds are bischelate derivatives of palladium(II). One of the chelating ligands will be arbitrarily referred to as the arylamino portion of the molecule. This is the portion above and to the right of the Pd atom in each of formulas I-IV. The other chelating ligand will be arbitrarily referred to as the chelate portion and is the Ch portion, already discussed, below and to the left of the Pd atom in formulas I-VII. Of the two formal valences of the palladium(II) atom, one is satisfied by an arylpalladium (C-Pd) bond emanating from the aryl group of the aryl-amino portion; the other is satisfied by a Z-Pd bond emanating from one of the Z entities of the chelate portion.  
 DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS c1 CH2 (cusps a Pd pae- N(cH3)2 YIII in which the organic moieties correspond to the arylamino portion of formula I.  
  The preparation of metal chelates, in which one or more Ch groups as defined above are bonded to a metal, from metal halides and the parent ChI-I, is well known to those skilled in the art. Various embodiments of the process are reviewed, for example, in Inorganic Syntheses,&#34; Vol. II, Ed. Fernelius, pp. -20 ff. (McGraw-Hill, 1946) and Vol. XI, Ed. Jolly, pp. 72-82 ff. (1968). Preparations of individual metal chelates are scattered throughout the chemical literature, and references to some of these publications are given in Inorganic Syntheses.  
  The palladium(II) chelates of the present invention can be prepared, for example, by reaction of a halide of the type illustrated by formula VIII with (a) a compound Chl-I in the presence of a base or (b) a preformed metal salt of a compound Ch-I-I, in which the H is replaced by one equivalent of a metal. The base can be, for example, a hydroxide, oxide, or carbonate of an alkali metal or it can be ammonia, a primary, secondary, or tertiary alkylamine, or a quaternary ammonium hydroxide. Both these methods are mentioned in Inorganic Syntheses. If a performed salt is used, it is usually an alkali-metal salt or a thallium salt.  
  In preparing the products of this invention, it is convenient to use a solvent such as dimethylformamide or a di(lower alkyl)amide of a lower alkanecarboxylic acid. Alternatively, a lower alkanenitrile such as acetonitrile or propionitrile, a lower alkanone such as acetone or methyl ethyl ketone, or other solvents such as dimethyl sulfoxide or methylene chloride can be used. The products are soluble in such solvents, and thus the initial reaction mixture need not be homogeneous. The preferred temperature is in the range 30-80C. Higher temperatures should be used with caution, since reduction of the palladium to palladium metal may take place. Temperatures as low as about 20C. can be used, but no advantage results, and the reaction may be unnecessarily slow. The palladium&#39;(II) chelates are all insoluble in water and can be readily isolated as solids by diluting the reaction mixtures with excess water. They can then be separated by filtration or extracted with a water-immiscible liquid such as methylene chloride. They can be purified by conventional procedures such as chromatography or recrystallization from common solvents.  
  The new palladium(II) chelates of this invention are colorless or pale-yellow crystalline solids that are thermally stable to well over C. They dissolve readily in many commercial organic solvents, e.g., aromatic hydrocarbons and chlorinated aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons. They are also somewhat soluble in aliphatic hydrocarbons. They are stable indefinitely to ordinary atmospheric conditions and in storage. As shown in Example 11, they decompose smoothly at higher temperatures to give metallic palladium.  
  The following examples illustrate certain embodiments of this invention. In these examples and elsewhere in the specification, all parts, ratios and percentages of materials or components are by weight. The arylpalladium(ll) halide dimers used as reactants to prepare products of the invention were obtained as follows.  
 EXAMPLE A 2-(3,5-Dimethyll -pyrazolyl)phenylpalladium(II) Chloride Dimer 3,5-Dimethyl-l-phenylpyrazole (1.9 g.) was added with stirring to a mixture of 3.26 g. of K PdCl 200 ml. of water, and 50 ml. of methanol. The mixture was stirred at 68C. for 4 hours and then at room temperature overnight. The pale orange-gray solid that had precipitated was separated by filtration, washed with water, washed with methanol and dried. The yield was 3.2

  The analytical results indicate contamination of the dimer by bis(1-phenylpyrazole)palladium dichloride, i.e., an incomplete reaction. The contamination can be eliminated by running the reaction longer than one hour.  
  Alternatively, the contaminant can be removed by extraction with hot chloroform, followed by recrystallization of the desired product. For example, 24 g. of crude dimer was stirred with 300 ml. of refluxing chloroform, and the hot mixture was filtered. The solid that did not dissolve in the chloroform was extracted again with chloroform as above and then recrystallized from chlorobenzene. Analysis showed that pure dimer was thus obtained.  
 Anal. Found: C, 37.8; H, 2.40; N, 9.75; Pd, 37.03.  
  The dimer can be further characterized by reacting it with a phosphine such as triphenylphosphine and analyzing the resulting derivative.  
 EXAMPLE C 2-(2-Pyridyl)phenylpalladium(ll) Chloride Dimer C1 14/ l N Pd Pd N l A The procedure of Example A was essentially repeated, with 1.7 g. of 2-phenylpyridine in place of the 3,5-dimethyl-l-phenylpyrazole. The yield of dimer was 3.1 g. For characterization, the dimer was converted to its tris(p-tolyl) phosphine derivative. A mixture of the dimer, 3.04 g. of tris(p-tolyl)phosphine, and 50 ml. of dimethylformamide was warmed with stirring until the solids dissolved. This occurred rapidly at about 50C. The solution was cooled and poured into 400 ml. of water. The solid that precipitated was purified by chromatography on alumina (both the solvent and the eluent were methylene chloride), followed by recrystallization from toluene. The phosphine complex gradually decomposed on heating above about 227C.

  8-(Dimethylamino)-l-naphthylpalladium(ll) chloride dimer was prepared by the method of Cope and Friedrich, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 90, 909 (1968).  
  2-(Dimethylaminomethyl)phenylpalladium(ll) chloride dimer was also prepared by the procedure of Cope and Friedrich.

The mixture was stirred at 50C. for 1 hour,  
 cooled, and poured into 300 ml. of water. The solid that precipitated was separated by filtration, dried, dissolved in methylene chloride, and purified by chromatography on alumina (methylene chloride eluent). The off-white crystals thus obtained were further purified by recrystallization from heptane to give 2.6 g.

 EXAMPLE 4 2,4-Pentanedionato-2-( l pyrazolyl)phenylpalladium- The procedure of Example 1 was essentially repeated except that an equivalent amount of an equimolar mixture of 2,4-pentanedione and triethylamine was used in place of the 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,S-heptanedione and diethylamine. The pale-yellow crystalline 2,4- pentanedionato-2-( l-pyrazolyl)phenylpalladium(ll) thus obtained decomposed gradually on heating above about 225C. It was characterized by its infrared absorption spectrum.  
 EXAMPLE 5 2,2,6,6-Tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato-2- (dimethylaminomethyl)phenylpalladium(ll) To a solution of 2.7 g. of 2-(dimethylaminomethyl) phenylpalladium(ll) chloride dimer in 25 ml. of dimethylformamide was added 3.0 g. of an equimolar mixture of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione and diethylamine. The mixture was stirred at 50C. for 15 minutes and poured into 200 ml. of ice and water. The solid that precipitated was separated by filtration, dried, dissolved in methylene chloride, and purified by chromatography on alumina (methylene chloride eluent). There was thus obtained 2.1 g.

The yellow solid that precipitated was separated by filtration, washed with water and with methanol, and air-dried. The solid was stirred with 200 ml. of dimethylformamide, and 17 g. of an equimolar mixture of 2,4-pentanedione and trimethylamine was added. This mixture was stirred at 50C. for 20 minutes and poured into 400 ml. of water.

 Scope of the Aryl-amino Portion of the Molecule In addition to the products of Examples 5 and 7, other 2-(dialkylaminomethyl)phenylpalladium(ll) chelates are included among products of the invention corresponding to formula I. Thus, other dialkylbenzylamines corresponding to the aryl-amino portion of formula I can be converted to the palladium(ll) chloride or bromide dimers by methods described in the literature and in Examples A, B, and C, and the dimeric halides can be substituted for the 2- (dimethylaminomethyl)phenylpalladium(II) chloride dimer in Examples 5 and 7 to give products of the invention. They can also be reacted with any of the chelate precursors, ChI-I, described above, to give products of the invention. Examples of other operable dialkylbenzylamines are N,N-diisobutylbenzylamine, N- isopropyl-N-methylbenzylamine, 5-isopropyl-N,N,2- trimethylbenzylamine, N,N,4-trimethylbenzylamine, N,N-diethyl-4-isopentyloxybenzylamine, 3,5- dimethoxy-N,N-dimethylbenzylamine, N,N-diethyl-3- methoxybenzylamine, 4-butoxy-N-ethyl-N- methylbenzylamine, N,N-diethyl-2-fluorobenzylamine, 4-bromo-N,N-dimethylbenzylamine, 5-chloro-N, N-dimethylbenzylamine, 2-bromo-4-methoxy-N,N- dimethylbenzylamine, 3-chloro-N,N,2-trimethylbenzylamine, and 5-methoxy-N,N,2-trimethylbenzylamine. Preferably, because of availability of intermediates, m is O or 1 in formula I. Most preferably, m is 0.  
  Similarly, other N,N-dialkyl-l-naphthylamines can be converted to the corresponding palladium(II) chloride or bromide dimers, and these can be substituted for the S-dimethylamino-1-naphthylpalladium(ll) chloride dimer in the process of Example 3 to give products of the invention in which the aryl-amino portion of the molecule corresponds to that of formula II. Examples of other operable N,N-dialkyl-l-naphthylamines are N -ethyl-N-methyl- 1 -naphthylamine, N,N-dibutyl- 1 naphthylamine, 4-bromo-N,N-dimethyl-lnaphthylamine, and 4-chloro-N,N-dimethyl-1- naphthylamine. Preferably p is 0 in formula II.  
  In the same manner, other l-phenylpyrazole derivatives can be converted to the corresponding palladium- (II) chloride or bromide dimers. These can be substituted for the 2-( l-pyrazolyl)phenylpalladium(ll) chloride dimer of Examples 2 and 4 and for the corresponding 3,5-dimethyl derivative of Example 6 to give products of the invention in which the aryl-amino portion corresponds to that of formula III. Such lphenylpyrazole derivatives include 4-bromo-1- phenylpyrazole, 4-chloro-l-phenylpyrazole, 4-pentyll-phenylpyrazole, 1,3 ,5-triphenylpyrazole, 1 ,4,5- triphenylpyrazole, 5-chloro-3 -methyl-1- phenylpyrazole, 4-bromo-3-methyll ,5- diphenylpyrazole, 3-methyl-1 ,S-diphenylpyrazole, l-  
 &#39;(p-chlorophenyl)pyrazole, 1-(o-tolyl)-pyrazole, l-(pbromophenyl)-3-methylpyrazole, 1 -(p-chlorophenyl 3-methyl-S-phenylpyrazole, and 4-bromo-l-(p-tolyl)- pyrazole. Preferably, because of availability of intermediates, p is 0 in formula III, X&#34; is lower alkyl, and n is at most 2.  
  Similarly, other 2-phenylpyridine derivatives can be converted to the corresponding palladium(II) chloride or bromide dimers, and these can be substituted for 2- (2-pyridyl)phenylpalladium(ll) chloride in the process of Example 1 to give additional products of the invention in which the aryl-amino portion of the molecule corresponds to that of formula IV. Examples of such 2-phenylpyridine derivatives are 5-methyl-2- phenylpyridine, 3-ethyl-2-phenylpyridine, 3-methoxy- 2-phenylpyridine, 2,4-diphenylpyridine, 3,4-dimethyl- 2-phenylpyridine, 2-(m-tolyl)pyridine, 2-(o-methoxyphenyl)pyridine, 2-(p-bromophenyl)pyridine, 2-(pchlorophenyl)pyridine, and 2-(p-chlorophenyl)-4,6- diphenylpyridine. Preferably p is 0 in formula IV, X&#39; is lower alkyl, and m is O or 1. Most preferably m is 0.  
  In addition, palladium(ll) compounds of the general types represented by formulas I-IV and containing aryl-amino portions other than those specifically included in these formulas can be made and have the same beneficial combination of properties discussed above. The compounds include those in which the arylamino portion is derived from alkyland aryl-imino derivatives of aryl aldehydes, aryl alkyl ketones, and diaryl ketones, e.g., C I-I CI-I NCH C H CH NC l-I C6H5C(CH3) NCH3, (C6H5)2C NCH3, NC I-I and (C H C NC l-l together with other such imines with other lower alkyl groups in place of methyl and higher aryl or substituted aryl groups in place of phenyl. They also include those in which the aryl-amino portion is derived from 2-phenylquinoline, 1-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole, l-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole, and substituted derivatives of each.  
 Scope of the Chelate Portion of the Molecule Beta-diketones, beta-keto aldehydes, beta-keto esters, monoand bis(hydrocarbylimino) derivatives of these three classes, tropolones, aminotroponeimines and salicylaldimines are known compounds. The compounds of these structural types that can form monovalent, bidentate chelate derivatives with metal ions by removal of one hydrogen per ligand, by processes discussed earlier, are well known to those skilled in the art. In general, for the types other than the tropolones, aminotroponeimines, and salicylaldimines, any compound in which the carbon between the two carbonyl carbons is bonded to at least one hydrogen and in which at most one of the carbonyl carbons is part of a ring will form chelates in this manner. The chelate portions of the molecules of the products of this invention can be derived from any such compounds. Carbonyl carbon as herein used means either of the carbon atoms bonded to carbonyl oxygen 0 or a hydrocarbylimino group NR).

  The preparation of beta-diketones and beta-keto aldehydes is described by Hauser, et al., in Chapter 3 of Organic Reactions, Vol. VIII, edited by Adams, et al. Similarly, the preparation of beta-keto esters is described by Hauser and Hudson in Chapter 9 or Vol. I of Organic Reactions (Wiley, 1942). Beta-keto imines and their chelate-forming properties are discussed by Martin, et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 83, 73 (1961), and in Inorganic Syntheses, Vol. XI, Ed. Jolly, pages 72 ff. (McGraw-Hill, 1968). Bis-(hydrocarbylimino) derivatives of beta-diketones and their conversion to metal chelates are described by Parks and Holm, Inorg. Chem., 7, 1408 (1968).  
  Operable beta-dicarbonyl compounds and hydrocarbylimino derivatives thereof, Ch-l-I, that can be used to form the chelate portion of the molecule include those of the formula 2 z 11 ll Y-C-CHa-C-Y wherein the terms are as defined in formulas V-VII.

The las four compounds are named as the enol or enea mine isomers. The corresponding keto or anei mine&#34; isomer for, e.g., the first compound is 2,4 bis(phenylimino)pentane (cf. formula IX). Regardles: of which isomer predominates in this or any other type of ligand precursor Ch--H, the same metal chelate wil be obtained, corresponding to formulas V-VII.  
  The more readily available compounds of formula IX are those in which Y is alkyl of at most 12 carbons; cycloalkyl of 5 or 6 ring carbons, lower fluoroalkyl; ary of at most 10 carbons and containing up to two substit uents selected from halo, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, anc hydroxyl; heterocyclyl of 5-6 nuclear atoms containing up to one such substituent; hydrogen, lower alkoxy, aryloxy of up to 10 carbons, and aralkoxy of up to 10 carbons, at most one Y being hydrogen, alkoxy, aryloxy or aralkoxy. Products of the invention in which the che late portion contains such Y groups are therefore preferred. More preferably, Y is hydrogen, lower alkyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, trifluoromethyl, phenyl, naphthyl, thienyl, hydrogen, lower alkyoxy, phenoxy, o1 benzyloxy. Most preferably the chelate portion of the molecule is derived from a beta-diketone and Y is lower alkyl.  
  The more readily available hydrocarbylimino derivatives of beta-diketones, beta-keto aldehydes, and betaketo esters, i.e., compounds of formula IX in which one Z is NR, are those in which R is phenyl, optionally substituted with up to two inert substituents which can be lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, or halo, particularly chloro. These values of R are therefore preferred in products of the invention of this type. Most preferably R, when present, is phenyl. In addition, of the three types of beta-dicarbonyl compounds, beta-diketones form hydrocarbylimino derivatives most readily, and therefore when one Z is NR in formula IX, the Y groups are preferably other than hydrogen, alkoxy, aryloxy, and aralkoxy.  
  Tropolones are described, for example, by Nozoc in Chapter VII of Non-Benzenoid Aromatic Compounds, edited by Ginsburg (Academic Press, 1959). Formation of metal chelates by tropolones is discussed here and also by Bryant, et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 75, 3784 (1953). Tropolones that are operable to produce chelating ligands, Ch, in&#39;the products of the present invention by loss of a hydrogen include tropolone represented by the formula wherein R is chloro, bromo, lower alkyl or phenyl, and q is 0, l, 2 or 3; containing up to two or three inert substituents such as chloro, bromo, lower alkyl, and phenyl. Examples are tropolone, 4-isopropyltropolone, 3- bromotropolone, 3,5,7-tribromotropolone, 3-bromo-7- methyltropolone, S-methyltropolone, 5- chlorotropolone, and S-phenyltropolone. Preferably the number of substituents is zero or one.  
  Aminotroponeimines and the formation of metal chelates from them are described in Brasen and Howard, US. Pat. No. 3,052,705. Any of the aminotroponeimines described in this patent can be used to provide a chelate ligand, Ch, for a product of present invention by loss of a hydrogen. They are usually named as derivatives of 1,3,5-cycloheptatriene and are compounds of the formula wherein R&#34; is hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl, phenyl, or substituted phenyl. The preferred intermediates for use in preparing products of the present invention are compounds of formula X in which&#39;R&#34; is hydrogen, lower alkyl, phenyl, chlorophenyl, lower alkoxyphenyl, and lower alkylphenyl. Examples are l-amino-7-imino- 1,3 ,S-cycloheptatriene, l-butylamino-7-butyliminol,3,5-cycloheptatriene, l-phenylamino-7-phenylimino- 1,3,5-cycloheptatriene, l-(p-chl0rophenylamino)-7- (p-chlorophenylimino)-l, 3,5-cycloheptatriene, l-(oanisylamino)-7-(o-anisylimino)-l ,3,5- cycloheptatriene, and l-(m-tolylamino)-7-(mtolylimino)-1,3,5-cycloheptatriene.  
  Salicylaldimines are described, for example, by Harris and Livingstone in Chelating Agents and Metal Chelates, Ed. Dwyer and Mellor, pages 1 19-120 (Academic Press, 1964), with references to original literature articles. Such compounds include those of the formula where Q is H, OH, alkyl, or aryl (preferably phenyl) optionally substituted with up to two inert substituents which can be halo, lower alkyl, or lower alkoxy. Examples are salicylaldimine, N-hydroxysalicylaldimine, N- methylsalicylaldimine, N-phenylsalicylaldimine and N-p-tolylsalicylaldimine.  
  The palladium compounds of this invention are useful in the preparation of palladium films on various substrates. Precious metal decorating compounds generally comprise, in addition to metal compounds (in this case a palladium compound of this invention), a flux and an organic solvent. These components are admixed conventionally. The particular solvent and flux used is a matter of choice. Viscosifying agents, such as pine rosin, may be added. In order to illustrate this utility,  
 the following example is presented.  
 EXAMPLE 1 l The composition contained 20.82% gold resinate (45.8% gold); 4.77% palladium compound of Example 7; 21.59% solvent (about 25% of a mixture of chlorobenzene and xylene and about of a mixture of alpha and beta pinene); 10.00% viscosifying agent pine rosin and 10% flowers of sulfur); 9.35% chlorobenzene; 20.56% mixture of alpha and beta pinene; 0.50% red dye; 1.00% vanadium resinate; 0.80 chromium resinate; 4.00% bismuth resinate; and 7.00% rhodium resinate.  
  This composition was brushed onto the china plate and fired to 740C.-750C. A bright, specular, silvery film of palladium was formed. The palladium compounds of this invention have a wide range of coating applications on various substrates, e.g., glass, china, ceramics, metal, etc.  
  As many apparently widely different embodiments of this invention may be made without departing from the spirit and scope thereof, it is to be understood that this invention is not limited to the specific embodiments thereof except as defined in the appended claims.
