(2,2'-Bipyridine-²N,N')(2,3-naphthalenediolato-²O,O')palladium(II) and (2,2'-biquinoline-²N,N')(2,3-naphthalenediolato-²O,O')palladium(II)

Abstract: In the title compounds, [Pd(C₁₀H₆O₂)(C₁₀H₈N₂)], (I), and [Pd(C₁₀H₆O₂)(C₁₈H₁₂N₂)], (II), each Pd^II atom has a similar distorted cis-planar four-coordination geometry involving two O atoms of the 2,3-naphthalenediolate dianion and two N atoms of the 2,2'-bipyridine or 2,2'-biquinoline ligand. The overall structure of (I) is essentially planar, but that of (II) is not, as a result of intramolecular overcrowding leading to bowing of the biquinoline ligand.

Formula: [Pd(C₁₀H₆O₂)(C₁₀H₈N₂)] and[Pd(C₁₀H₆O₂)(C₁₈H₁₂N₂)]
