Abstract
The interaction between PdCl2(CH3CN)2 and 2,4,6-Me3C6H2NC (MesNC) proceeds with the substitution of acetonitrile ligands and leads to the synthesis of a cis -[PdCl2(MesNC)2] complex. The structure of this compound is determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex has a slightly distorted square-planar structure of the metal center with two cis -positioned isocyanide ligands. The triple bonds in both CN isocyanide fragments have lengths similar to the lengths of the corresponding bonds in other isocyanide complexes. In the structure, the cis -[PdCl2(MesNC)2] complexes are bound by weak С-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and p-stacking interactions.
