Abstract

Synthesis and characterisation of new long alkyl chain bimetallic bridging tetra-carboxylate complexes. Palladium-based heterometallic complexes are important because of their interesting physical properties and excellent catalytic activity. In this study, four monometallic trinuclear palladium long chain carboxylates and four palladium-based bimetallic bridging tetracarboxylate complexes were synthesised. These complexes were characterised by different techniques, including DSC, TGA-MS, X-Ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy.
