Abstract

Anions [loss of N(3) hydrogen of 2-acetylpyridine N(4)-dimethylthiosemicarbazone (HAc4DM)] coordinate in a planar conformation to a central palladium(II) through the pyridyl nitrogen, azomethine nitrogen and thiolato sulfur atoms. The fourth coordination site is occupied by either a bromo, chloro or a second Ac4DM ligand bonding via its thiolato sulfur atom. A crystal structure of [Pd(Ac4DM)Br] shows it to be planar, while the structure of [Pd(Ac4DM) 2] has the unusual coordination of the two anions bonding differently to the palladium centre. Spectral and structural similarities and differences between these and related nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes are considered.
