Synthesis of Dinuclear (μ‑η3‑Allyl)palladium(I) and -platinum(I) Complexes Supported by Chelate-Bridging Ligands

Dinuclear (μ-η3-allyl)­palladium­(I) complexes supported by chelate-bridging ligands, (μ-η3-allyl)­Pd2(μ-L) (L = N,N′-bis­[2-(diphenylphosphino)­phenyl]­formamidinate, N-(2-diphenylphosphino)­phenyl-N′-8-quinolylformamidinate, N,N′-di-8-quinolylformamidinate, N,N′-di-8-quinolylacetamidinate), were synthesized, and some of them were characterized by X-ray crystallography. A dinuclear (μ-η3-allyl)­platinum­(I) complex, (μ-η3-allyl)­Pt2(μ-L), was also synthesized and crystallographically characterized.
