Dibenzylideneacetone (dba) is used in the preparation of palladium catalysts, notably di(dibenzalacetone)palladium(0) (Pd2(dba)2) and tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) (Pd2(dba)3), which are then used in various organic synthesis reactions. These palladium complexes are frequently employed as precatalysts in reactions like cross-coupling, hydrogenation, and carbonylation.
