(Acetato-κ2O,O′)[2′-(di-tert-butylphosphanyl)-1,1′-biphenyl-κ2P,C2]palladium(II)

Abstract

The structure of the title compound, [Pd(C2H3O2)(C20H26P)], shows a distorted square-planar geometry for the PdII atom, with significant deviations being evident owing to the asymmetric coordination mode of the acetate ligand. A weak intramolecular C—H...O interaction is noted. The crystal studied was a racemic twin.
