Abstract
Typical radical traps (galvinoxyl, TEMPO, DPPH) react with palladium hydrides, sometimes at rates competitive with those of palladium hydride catalyzed reactions that follow an insertion mechanism (for example, alkene isomerization). Thus, positive results for radical reaction tests can be misleading. The complexes with more polarizable (neutral complexes rather than cationic) and more accessible hydrides, and the less sterically protected radical traps, react faster.
