Abstract
The pyrazolyl pyridylimine ligands [2-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)ethyl]pyridin-2-ylmethyleneimine (L1) and [2-(3,5-di-tert-butylpyrazol-1-yl)ethyl]pyridin-2-ylmethyleneimine (L2) and pyrazolyl thienylimine ligands [2-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)ethyl]thiophen-2-ylmethyleneimine (L3), [2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-pyrazol-1-yl)ethyl]thiophen-2-ylmethyleneimine (L4), [2-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)ethyl]-2-bromothiophen-2-ylmethyleneimine (L5), and [2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-pyrazol-1-yl)ethyl]-2-bromothiophen-2-ylmethyleneimine (L6) were synthesized by condensation of the appropriate pyrazolylamine and the corresponding aldehyde. Reactions of L1–L6 with [PdCl(Me)(cod)] gave the corresponding palladium(II) complexes [PdCl(Me)(L)] (where L = L1 (1a), L2 (2a), L3 (3a), L4 (4a), L5 (5a), L6 (6a)) in very good yields. The pyridylimine ligands L1 and L2 were found to coordinate via the imine and pyridine nitrogen atoms, while the thienylimine ligands L3–L6 coordinate via imine and pyrazolyl nitrogen atoms to the palladium. The ca...
