Crystal structure of (piperidine-1-carbodithioato-κ2S,S)[2-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl-κ2C1,N]palladium(II)

Abstract

The title compound, [Pd(C11H8N)(C6H10NS2)], crystallizes with three similar and discrete molecules in the asymmetric unit. The CNS2 donor set defines a distorted square-planar geometry around the PdII atom, with very small deviations from planarity. The bidentate nature of the ligands gives fairly large deviations from the ideal 90° angles; the C—Pd—N angles are all around 81° and the S—Pd—S angles are around 75°. Molecules pack via dispersion interactions.
