F. Cl, Br, CH3, OCH3, t-Bu, 5,6-benzo) are reported. Cyclic voltammetry studies of the complexes exhibit an irreversible anodic peak that corresponds to the phenoxide/phenoxyl oxidation. The chemical oxidation of the complexes with (NH4)(2)Ce(NO3)(6) in CHCl3, besides relatively stable Pd-II-phenoxyl radical complexes (g = 2.0083-2.0114), also generate nitroxide radicals exhibiting strongly anisotropic spectra (g(parallel to) = 2.0061, g(perpendicular to) = 2.0072, A(parallel to) = 37.5, A(perpendicular to) = 5.38 G) typical for immobilized nitroxide radicals. It has been found that the introduction of t-Bu groups on the salicylic ring increases catalytic activity of towards hydrogenation of nitrobenzene in DMF at room temperature. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
