Solid state conformational and theoretical study of complexes containing the (CxN)Pd moiety (CxN = 2-(phenylazo)phenyl-C,N and its derivatives)

2003

Palladium complexes having the 2-(phenylazo)phenyl-C,N ligand exhibit a planar chelating ring with NN and N–C distances longer and shorter respectively than those found in trans-azobenzene. The ligand is not planar upon complexation, the mean angle between the phenyl ring and the chelating one found in the Cambridge Structural Database being of 45.6°. We have quantified and characterised the kind of distortion from planar coordination around metallic centers. The method employed makes use of two improper torsion angles, tetrahedral distortion being most frequently found in phenylazophenyl palladium complexes. Crystal structures of three succinimidate complexes having the title moiety are re…

Synthesis and characterization of monomeric siloxo palladium(II) complexes: crystal structure of [Pd(tmeda)(C6F5)(OSiPh3)]

2004

Abstract Mononuclear palladium-hydroxo complexes of the type [Pd(N–N)(C6F5)(OH)] [(N–N)=2,2′-bipyridine (bipy), 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine (Me2bipy), or N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (tmeda)] react with silanols HOSiR3 in toluene giving the corresponding siloxo complexes [Pd(N–N)(C6F5)(OSiR3)]. The X-ray crystal structure of [Pd(tmeda)(C6F5)(OSiPh3)] has been determined. In one of the two molecules in the asymmetric unit there is an intramolecular interaction by phenyl–pentafluorophenyl π-stacking.

Abstract The dinuclear hydroxo complex [{Pd(μ-OH)(Phox)}2] (I) (Phox = 2-(2-oxazolinyl)phenyl) reacts in a 1:2 molar ratio with several imidate ligands to yield new cyclometallated palladium complexes [{Pd(μ-NCO)(Phox)}2] containing asymmetric imidate –NCO– bridging units. [–NCO– = succinimidate (succ) (1), phtalimidate (phtal) (2), maleimidate (mal) (3), 2,3-dibromomaleimidate (2,3-diBrmal) (4) and glutarimidate (glut) (5)]. The reaction of these complexes with tertiary phosphines provides novel mononuclear N-bonded imidate derivatives of the general formula [Pd(imidate)(Phox)(PR3)] [R = Ph (a), 4-F–C6H4 (b) or CH2CH2CN (c)]. The new complexes were characterized by partial elemental analys…
