Abstract:
In the title compound, [Pd(C(9)H(12)N)Cl(C(4)H(6)N(2))], which was synthesized from the reaction of 1-methyl-imidazole with dimeric dichloridobis[2-(dimethyl-amino)-benz-yl]palla-dium(II), the ring-deprotonated N,N-dimethyl-benzyl-amine ligand acts in a C,N-bidentate fashion. The dihedral angle between the ring of the 1-methyl-imidazole ligand and the palladacycle plane is 57.88 (16)°. The two N atoms from the N,N-dimethyl-benzyl-amine and 1-methyl-imidazole ligands are trans coordinated to the Pd(II) atom.

The nitrous acid is unstable. Hence, it is formed in situ from a solution of sodium nitrite and cold aqueous acids such as hydrochloric or sulfuric acid. In an acidic solution, the –OH group of nitrous acid undergoes protonation to give oxonium ion, followed by water loss...
