(2,2'-Bipyridine-[kappa]2N,N')dibromidopalladium(II) dichloromethane solvate

N.-H. Kim and K. Ha

Abstract: In the title compound, [PdBr2(C10H8N2)]·CH2Cl2, the Pd2+ ion is four-coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar environment by two N atoms of the chelating 2,2'-bipyridine ligand and two bromide ions. The compound displays intramolecular C-H...Br hydrogen bonds and pairs of complex molecules are assembled by intermolecular C-H...Br hydrogen bonds. These pairs are connected by additional C-H...Br hydrogen bonds, forming a layer structure extending parallel to (011). Intermolecular [pi]-[pi] interactions between the pyridine rings of the ligand are also present, the shortest centroid-centroid distance being 4.090 (9) Å.
