Abstract:

The mixed phosphine thiolato palladium complex Pd(Hmp)_2(PBu_3n)_2 (1) has the Pd(Ⅱ) in a square planar (environment with Pd-S and Pd-P being 2.338(1) Å and 2.336(1) Å, respectively. It was obtained from the reaction of PbCl_2 with phosphine in the presence of an excess of o-mercaptophenol. In excess of phosphine, the product obtained will be the dinuclear complexPd_2 (Hmp )_2 (PBu_3n )_2Cl_2 (2). The mechanism of formation of (1) and (2) and the quantum chemical calculations on a simplified model of (1) are also discussed.

Key words: Mixed phosphine thiolato palladium complex, Molecular strusture, o-Mercaptophenol, Tri-n-butylphosphine, Formation mechanism, Quantum chemical calculation
