In the title compound, [PdCl(2)(C(20)H(17)P)(2)], the Pd(II) atom lies on a center of symmetry, resulting in a distorted trans-square-planar geometry. The Pd-P and Pd-Cl bond lengths are 2.3366 (7) and 2.2966 (7) Å, respectively. The vinyl group is disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.696 (15):0.304 (15) ratio.

The title complex, [RhCl(C(21)H(21)O(3)P)(2)(CO)], is a rhodium analogue to Vaska's complex with para-meth-oxy substituents on the six phosphan-yl-aryl units. Two independent mol-ecules are present in the unit cell, with their metal atoms both located on an inversion centre. This causes the chloride and carbonyl ligands to exhibit a positional disorder in a 0.5:0.5 ratio. The two Rh(I) atoms ex...

Reaction of a phosphane-decorated benzenedithiol (pbdtH2) with coinage metal salts furnished polynuclear complexes [M2(pbdtH)2] (M=AuI) or [cat][M5(pbdt)3] (cat=unipositive cation, M=AgI, CuI), which were characterized by analytical and spectroscopic techniques single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Furthermore, double salt an anion [Ag5(pbdt)3(PPh3)]− that proved unstable in solution was cr...

The title compound, [PtCl(2)(C(20)H(17)P)(2)], forms a monomeric cis-square-planar geometry. The Pt-P bond lengths are 2.2489 (9) and 2.2627 (9) Å, whereas the Pt-Cl bond lengths are 2.3566 (9) and 2.3336 (9) Å.

In the title compound, [Cr(C(18)H(12)F(3)P)(2)(CO)(4)], the Cr atom is octa-hedrally coordinated by four carbonyl ligands and the two tertiary phosphanes that are trans to each other. The Cr atom and two carbonyl groups are on a twofold axis. The benzene rings attached to the phospho-rus atom make dihedral angles of 80.32 (5), 52.91 (5) and 83.80 (5)° with each other. In the crystal, C-H⋯O and ...

The title compound, [PdCl(2){P(C(6)H(11))(2)(C(6)H(5))}(2)], forms a monomeric complex with a trans-square-planar geometry. The Pd-P bond lengths are 2.3343 (5) Å, as the Pd atom lies on an inversion centre, while the Pd-Cl bond lengths are 2.3017 (4) Å. The observed structure was found to be closely related to [PdCl(2){P(C(6)H(11))(3)}(2)] [Grushin et al. (1994 ▶). Inorg. Chem.33, 4804-4806], ...

In the title compound, [Ag{P(C(6)H(11))(2)(C(6)H(5))}(2)]ClO(4)·CH(2)Cl(2), the Ag(I) atom in the mononuclear complex cation is coordinated by two P atoms of the phosphane ligands [Ag-P = 2.3993 (4) and 2.4011 (4) Å; P-Ag-P = 177.473 (18)°] and the perchlorate anion acts as the counter-anion. There is an Ag⋯O(perchlorate) inter-action of 2.873 (2) Å, which contributes to the slightly non-linear...

The title compound, trans-[RhCl(C(18)H(12)Cl(3)P)(2)(CO)]·C(3)H(6)O, contains an Rh(I) atom in a distorted square-planar coordination with a P-Rh-P angle of 175.27 (2)° and Rh-P bond lengths of 2.3127 (4) and 2.3219 (4) Å. The rhodium complexes link each other through weak inter-molecular contacts between the acetone methyl groups and the carbonyl O atom. Inter-actions between the acetone solve...
