publication Evidence: moderate

Author Information

Author(s): Li Liuzhong, White Peter S., Hao Aiyou

Primary Institution: Shandong University

Conclusion

The study presents a palladium complex with a distorted square-planar environment and highlights the presence of π–π interactions and weak intermolecular contacts.

Supporting Evidence

  • The palladium atom is coordinated by an acetonitrile N atom and a methyl C atom.
  • The crystal packing shows weak intermolecular C—H⋯F contacts.
  • The ligand used in the study is a bidentate ligand with significant π–π interactions.

Takeaway

The researchers created a new palladium compound and found that its structure has some interesting interactions between its parts.

Methodology

The compound was synthesized and characterized using X-ray crystallography.
