Abstract
A cationic Pd(ii) complex containing syn-(Me,Me)bimane as a ligand was prepared and fully characterized. This complex represents the first well-defined case of a bimane scaffold coordinated to a metal center. The strongly-fluorescent syn-bimane chelates the Pd(ii) center via its carbonyl oxygen atoms, affording a non-fluorescent complex. The crystal structure of this complex shows that the coordinated bimane departs from planarity, with its bicyclic framework bent about the N-N bond. Spectroscopic evidence demonstrates that bimane coordination is reversible in solution.
