Square Tetrapalladium Sheet Sandwich Complexes: Cyclononatetraenyl as a Versatile Face-Capping Ligand

An unusual square tetrapalladium sheet sandwich complex, [Pd4(μ4-C9H9)(μ4-C8H8)][B(Arf)4] has been isolated and structurally characterized. X-ray structure analysis showed that the square palladium sheet is flanked by the nine-membered cyclononatetraenyl and eight-membered cyclooctatetraene ligands...

Description
Summary:An unusual square tetrapalladium sheet sandwich complex, [Pd4(μ4-C9H9)(μ4-C8H8)][B(Arf)4] has been isolated and structurally characterized. X-ray structure analysis showed that the square palladium sheet is flanked by the nine-membered cyclononatetraenyl and eight-membered cyclooctatetraene ligands to form a square metal sheet molecular sandwich structure. The coordinative unsaturation of the complex was revealed by phosphine titration experiments.
