Abstract
Two molecular structures of a complex C26H16Cl2N2Pd (1) with a benzene hemisolvate (1•0.5C6H6) and a complex C34H20Cl2N2Pd (2) revealed similar conformations: one side of the arylethynyl group is flat to the bipyridine plane while the other side of the arylethynyl group is highly twisted to the plane because rhomb-like dimer fragments are formed between respective two complexes through CH⋯π interactions. The Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing of 1 are from H⋯H (33.6%), C⋯H/H⋯C (28.3%), Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (17.8%), and C⋯C (10.6%) interactions and those of 2 are from H⋯H (36.5%), C⋯H/H⋯C (26.0%), Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (15.7%), and C⋯C (12.3%) interactions, indicating the remarkable CH⋯π and electron distribution of molecules by Cl ions. The benzene solvate molecule of 1•0.5C6H6 performs to fill the internal space instead of the naphthyl group. Detailed crystallographic and DFT studies were performed to understand the molecular structures and the corresponding supramolecular associations.
