A stoichiometric variant <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> reaction with attack <strong>of</strong> fluoride ion on isolated cationic<br />

� 3 -palladium (II) <strong>and</strong> platinum (II) complexes has also been studied. In <strong>the</strong> first series <strong>of</strong><br />

experiments allyl complexes, (120)–(122) (Scheme 3.5 for syn<strong>the</strong>sis) were reacted with one<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fluoride sources, TBAT, Me4NF or Schwesinger’s phosphazenium fluoride P2F, <strong>the</strong>n<br />

mixed in a deuterated solvent for ease <strong>of</strong> sample monitoring. 1 H, 19 F <strong>and</strong> 31 P NMR<br />

spectroscopy were used to monitor <strong>the</strong> reactions. When no change was observed at room<br />

temperature samples were warmed to 50 ºC. The only specific reaction pattern was<br />

observed with complex (121) <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> fluoride sources Me4NF <strong>and</strong> P2F, where <strong>the</strong> diene<br />

(123) was formed in an elimination reaction (Scheme 3.6).<br />
