A Non-Innocent Radical-Anionic Nitrosoarene Ligand Regularizes a Formal Palladium(I) Complex to Palladium(II)

Abstract

Attempts to synthesize a phenanthroline palladium(0) complex with an eta2 -coordinated nitrosoarene starting from a palladium(II) precursor and the corresponding aryl hydroxylamine afforded instead apparent palladium(I) metallacyclic complexes that, on a closer inspection, were proven to be Pd(II) complexes with a new kind of radical-anionic nitrosoarene ligand.
