| Abstract: | A new class of palladium complexes bearing bidentate 2‐hydroxypyridine based ligands have been prepared and fully characterized. The applications of these new complexes towards ketone alkylation reactions with alcohols through a metal‐ligand cooperative borrowing‐hydrogen (BH) process were demonstrated. |
