description

In the crystal structure of the isostructural title compounds, namely {2,6-bis[(di-tert-butylphosphanyl)oxy]-4-hydroxyphenyl}chloridopalladium(II), [Pd(C22H39O3P2)Cl], 1, and {2,6-bis[(di-tert-butylphosphanyl)oxy]-4-hydroxyphenyl}chloridoplatinum(II), [Pt(C22H39O3P2)Cl], 2, the metal centres are coordinated in a distorted square-planar fashion by the POCOP pincer fragment and the chloride ligand. Both complexes form strong hydrogen-bonded chain structures through an interaction of the OH group in the 4-position of the aromatic POCOP backbone with the halide ligand. © 2019.
