′ tridentate chelation to palladium(II) by the monoanion derived from [Ph2P(S)NH]2CO
Abstract
The reaction between [PdCl2(PhCN)2] and [Ph2P(S)NH]2CO (H2L) proceeds with monodeprotonation of an amine group in the
′ donor set to palladium(II), leading to disparate S,N chelate ring sizes at the metal.
