Dalton communications. Synthesis, structural characterisation and electrochemistry of the tetranuclear compound [{Pd2(µ-RNNNR)2}2(µ-Cl)4](R = C6H4Me-p): a precursor to triazenido-bridged palladium(II) complexes
Abstract
The tetranuclear complexes [{Pd2(µ-RNNNR)2}2(µ-X)4](R = C6H4Me-p, X = Cl or I), in which two triazenido-bridged dipalladium units are linked by halide bridges to give an S4N4-like Pd4Cl4 core, are novel precursors to redox-active triazenido-bridged derivatives.
