The new bis-(NHC)Pd(II) complexes have been prepared from Ag(I)NHC complexes by using transmetallation method. The new bis-(NHC)Pd(II) complexes have been characterized by using H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, FTIR spectroscopy and elemental analysis techniques. Molecular and crystal structure of the complex 1a and its ligand (N-benzylbenzimidazole) were obtained by single crystal X-ray diffraction method. The new bis-(NHC)Pd(II) complexes exhibit activity in the reaction after being examined as catalysts in the direct arylation (C-H activation) reaction.
