Abstract

Abstract : rac ‐Bis{μ‐ trans ‐2, 2′‐[pentane‐1, 5‐diylbis(azanediyl)]ditroponato}dipalladium(II), [Pd2 (C19 H20 N2 O2 )2 ], has been synthesized and fully characterized using single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, 1 H NMR, FT–IR and mass spectroscopy. The trans coordination, vaulted structure and anti conformation have been unequivocally established from the X‐ray diffraction studies. This is the first example of a bis(aminotroponato)palladium complex. In the crystalline state, the molecule has twofold symmetry and each molecular unit undergoes intermolecular offset π‐stacking of the tropone rings to afford heterochiral interpenetrating dimers that are aligned in a lamellar manner with a herringbone packing motif.
