Bis{2-[1-(benzyl-imino)-eth-yl]phenolato}palladium(II)
Abstract:
In the title compound, [Pd(C(15)H(14)NO)(2)], the Pd atom lies on an inversion center and is coordinated by two ligand mol-ecules through the O and N atoms in a bidentate manner, forming a slightly distorted square-planar geometry. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings in the ligand is 76.53 (19)°. The mol-ecular packing is stablized by C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions.
