Abstract

This article describes the synthesis and characterization of Pd cationic complexes incorporating mono(2-benzyl oxazoline) ligands. Our study focuses on exploring the impact of electrostatic interactions of aromatic π-electrons of the benzyl group, aimed at enhancing the structural rigidity of cationic Pd complexes. Introduction of an aromatic moiety, which weakly coordinates with the Pd cation, led to a two-fold increase in the stability of the Pd cationic complex compared to complexes lacking any coordinating substituents. This research represents the initial instance of a cationic Pd complex with 2-benzyl oxazolines, highlighting the importance of weak electrostatic interactions in elucidating the three-dimensional structure of a metal complex.
