Reaction mechanism of palladium(0, II)-phosphines complexes catalyzed cyclocarbonylation for unsaturated carboxylic acid such as crotonic acid, methacrylic acid and 3-butenoic acid has been investigated by product analysis, molecular mechanics and extended Huckel molecular orbital method. Reaction of 3-butenoic acid with palladium(0, II)-phosphines catalyst gives palladium containing cycloester through intermediate palladium-olefin ${\pi}$ -complex in the catalytic carbonylation. Palladium(0, II)-phosphines complexes catalyze the cyclocarbonylation of 3-butenoic acid to give 3-methylsuccinic anhydride and glutaric anhydride. But ${\pi}$ -complexes with palladium(0, II)-phosphines and unsaturated carboxylic acids such as crotonic acid and methacrylic acid are not effective the catalytic cyclocarbonylation.

New Palladium(0)-olefin complexes, $(PMe_3)_2Pd{CH_2=C(CH_3)COOH} \;and\;(PMe_3)_2Pd{(CH_3)CH=CHCOOH}$ have been prepared by treating $Pd(PMe_3)_2$(styrene) with methacrylic acid and trans-crotonic acid, respectively. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR and $^1H-,\;^{13}C-,\;and\;^{31}P$-NMR spectroscopy. The carboxylic acid entity was found non-bonded with palladium while ${\pi}$-bond is formed between the olefin double bond and Pd(0). The results are compared with the metallacycle formation the reaction of Pd(PMe3)2(styrene) with 3-butenoic acid.

The structure and reactivity of ${\pi}$-and metallacycle form in the bis(trimethylphosphine) palladium(0) complexes with acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, crotonic acid(A group) and 3-butenoic acid, 4-pentenoic acid(B group) have been investigated by Molecular Mechanics and Extended Huckel Molecular Orbital method. The calculation shows that A groups with large value of frontier electron density of HOMO and LUMO produce $\pi-complexes$ instead of metallacycle. But B groups with small value of frontier electron density of LUMO, especially 3-butenoic acid, form stable metallacycle. Moreover the methyl-substituted five-membered compared with the six-membered metallacycle is energetically stable conformation.
