(Diphenylmethoxyphosphane-P)(diphenylphosphanito-P)(3,5,7-tribromotropolonato-²O,O')palladium(II) methanol solvate

G. Steyl

Abstract: The title compound, [Pd(C₇H₂Br₃)(C₁₂H₁₀OP)(C₁₃H₁₃OP)]·CH₃OH, the by-product of an attempted Suzuki-coupling reaction, has two different diphenylphosphane groups bonded to Pd and is the first structural example of a metal complex having a diphenylphosphanite anion [-P(O)Ph₂] and a diphenylmethoxyphosphane molecule (MeOPPh₂) coordinated to the same metal centre. Molecules are linked by hydrogen bonds, BrBr interactions [3.729 (1) Å] and - stacking interactions parallel to the a axis [interplanar distance 3.496 (8) Å and centroid-to-centroid distance 3.507 (1) Å].
