Crystal structure of trans-di­chloridobis­[N-(5,5-di­methyl-4,5-di­hydro-3H-pyrrol-2-yl-κN)acetamide]palladium(II) dihydrate

2017

The title complex, [PdCl2(C8H14N2O)2]2H2O, was obtained by N–O bond cleavage of the oxadiazoline rings of the trans-[dichlorido-bis(2,5,5-trimethyl- 5,6,7,7a-tetrahydropyrrolo[1,2-b][1,2,4]oxadiazole-N1 )]palladium(II) complex. The palladium(II) atom exhibits an almost square-planar coordination provided by two trans-arranged chloride anions and a nitrogen atom from each of the two neutral organic ligands. In the crystal, N—HO, O—HO and O—HCl hydrogen bonds link complex molecules into double layers parallel to the bc plane. peerReviewed
