Abstract
The reaction of dimesityl selenide (Mes2Se) with either PdCl2(PhCN) 2 in toluene or PdCl2 in toluene–acetonitrile yields a chloro-bridged binuclear palladium complex, [Pd2Cl2 (μ-Cl) 2 (Mes2Se) 2] (1), whereas with Na2PdCl4 in refluxing ethanol, a cyclometallated palladium complex, [Pd2 (μ-Cl) 2{MesSeC6H2(Me2)CH2}2] (2) is afforded. 2 can also be obtained when 1 is refluxed in ethanol. On treatment with Pb(Epy) 2 in dichloromethane, 2 afforded the Epy-bridged binuclear complexes, [Pd2 (μ-Epy) 2{MesSeC6H2(Me2)CH2}2] (3; E = S (3a) or Se (3b)). Treatment of 2 with PPh3 yields a bridge-cleaved monomeric complex, [PdCl{MesSeC6H2(Me2)CH2}(PPh3)]. The molecular structures of 1–3 were established by X-ray diffraction analyses. All the complexes are dimeric, with the palladium atoms acquiring a distorted square planar configuration. There are intra-molecular C–H⋯Pd interactions (dM–H: 2.75 Å and <C–H⋯Pd: 111.23°) in 1 which facilitate the activation of the C–H (sp3) bond leading to metallation. The optimized geometry of 1 obtained using the DFT (B3LYP) computational method identified a C–H⋯Pd contact distance of 2.78 Å. There are two independent molecules of 2 in the unit cell, which differ slightly in bond lengths, bond angles and torsion angles. The mechanism of formation of the dimeric species 2 is examined using DFT (B3LYP) computations.
