An air-stable palladium bis­(benzyl­theophylline) complex, [PdCl2(C14H14N4O2)2]·0.5H2O, was synthesized from 7-benzyl­theophylline and palladium dichloride. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the complex adopts a centrosymmetric structure in which two theophylline ligands coordinate to the square-planar PdII center through N atoms on the imidazole ring. The crystal structure contains water mol­ecules located at partially occupied sites (occupancy = 1/4). A notable structural feature is that the fused purine ring system of each ligand is oriented nearly perpendicular to the square-planar PdII coordination plane. In addition, the pendant phenyl ring is almost perpendicular to the fused purine ring plane, as indicated by the large torsion angle around the C5—N4—C8—C9 linkage [84.1 (2)°]. These geometric characteristics highlight the steric influence exerted by the benzyl­theophylline ligand on the metal coordination environment.

1. Chemical context

Theophylline is a natural xanthine derivative found in cacao beans like caffeine, with a structure comprising the purine skeleton of fused pyrimidine and imidazole rings (Franco et al., 2013View full citation). The structure of theophylline allows it to form N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes via its imidazole ring with divalent metals such as AgI and IrI (Mohamed et al., 2015View full citation; Eslava-Gonzalez et al., 2020View full citation). In addition, the inter­actions between the imidazole ring of theophylline and metals form nitro­gen-coordinated complexes (Gacki et al., 2019View full citation, 2020View full citation; Jin et al., 2019View full citation). In this sense, theophylline is a suitable ligand for metal complexation. Practically, theophylline–metal complexes have demonstrated promising potential as anti­bacterial and anti­cancer agents, thereby attracting significant attention in the pharmaceutical field (Ismail et al., 2020View full citation; Gordon et al., 2022View full citation). Furthermore, theophylline has been recognized as a useful ligand for palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions such as the Suzuki–Miyaura, Mizoroki–Heck, and Sonogashira reactions (Rahman et al., 2022View full citation; Mazars et al., 2023aView full citation,bView full citation; Mazars et al., 2023). For examples, not only NHC complexes of theophylline derivatives (Tyagi, et al., 2020View full citation; Charbonneau et al., 2014View full citation; Feng et al., 2014View full citation; Gazvoda et al., 2016View full citation), but also N-chelated palladium catalysts derived from theophylline (Kaikake et al., 2018View full citation, 2021View full citation, 2023View full citation) can effectively promote C—C coupling reactions. However, in our previous studies, the heterogeneous theophylline–palladium catalysts did not yield single crystals suitable for structural analysis, leaving their coordination structures unresolved. In contrast, the benzyl-substituted theophylline derivative used in the present study exhibits good solubility and enables the growth of high-quality crystals. Therefore, to further understand the coordination preferences of benzyl-substituted theophylline ligands toward PdII and to expand the structural information available for this class of purine-based metal complexes, we synthesized and structurally characterized the title compound (Fig. 1[link]).

2. Structural commentary

Slow vapor diffusion of methanol into a chloro­form solution of the PdBzT complex produced yellow prismatic crystals suitable for X-ray analysis. The asymmetric unit contains one half of a centrosymmetric PdII complex mol­ecule, where the metal center sits on a crystallographic center of inversion, plus one site for a water mol­ecule, which, unusually, is only 25% occupied, as confirmed by refinement of the site occupation factor of the water oxygen atom. The X-ray structure revealed the expected discrete complex, crystallized with a half water solvate mol­ecule in the monoclinic space group P21/c. The PdII center adopts a square-planar coordination geometry defined by two nitro­gen atoms (N1 and N1′) from two theophylline-derived imidazole rings and two trans-arranged chloride ligands. The Pd—N and Pd—Cl bond lengths are 2.0158 (16) and 2.2880 (5) Å, respectively. The Cl1—Pd—N1 and Cl1—Pd—N1′ bond angles are 89.50 (5) and 90.50 (5)°, respectively. Each ligand features a nearly perpendicular orientation between the fused purine ring system and the square-planar coordination plane. In this complex, the phenyl ring is oriented almost perpendicular to the relevant mol­ecular planes. The plane of the fused rings system of the ligand lies nearly perpendicular to the square-planar coordination plane that includes the chloride ligands. In addition, the phenyl ring is itself almost perpendicular to the fused ring plane. More specifically, the C8—C9 bond is twisted out of the fused-ring plane by approximately 90° (observed: 84°). The torsion angle around the N4—C8 bond is 84.1 (2)°. The coordination environment of the PdII center is consistent with that commonly observed for other square-planar complexes containing N-donor ligands, and is structurally comparable to related theophylline metal complexes reported in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD Version 6.00, last update in August of 2025; Groom et al., 2016View full citation), including the octa­hedral tetra­aqua MgII, CaII, MnII, CoII, NiII, and CdII complexes, as well as the CuII chloride complex, although their auxiliary ligands differ (all except the Cu complex possess tetra­aqua coordination; Shi & Lou, 2015View full citation; Hao et al., 2018View full citation; El Hamdani et al., 2017View full citation; Gacki et al., 2019View full citation; Buncel et al., 1985View full citation; Biagini Cingi et al., 1983View full citation).

3. Supra­molecular features

The phenyl, imidazole, and di­methyl­uracil groups in the ligand are positioned obliquely on the ab plane and all aligned parallel to each other along the c-axis. No significant ππ inter­actions are observed between identical moieties within the crystal structure. However, ππ inter­actions are present between the phenyl and di­methyl­uracil groups [C2⋯C13, 3.205 (3) Å; centroid–centroid distance, 3.6452 (12) Å]. These inter­molecular ππ stacking inter­actions propagate in a zigzag manner along the [010] direction (Fig. 2[link]). The mol­ecules also exhibit various supra­molecular inter­actions [O1⋯C12, 3.313 (3) Å; O1⋯C13, 3.394 (3) Å; C8⋯C13, 3.350 (3) Å; C7⋯Cl1, 3.514 (2) Å] with neighboring mol­ecules. Water mol­ecules inter­act with the chloro ligand [O3′⋯Cl1, 3.133 (1), O3⋯Cl1, 3.163 (1) Å] and the imidazole moiety [O3⋯N1, 3.566 (1), O3⋯C7=3.154 (1) Å].

4. Database survey

A search of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD Version 6.00, last update in August of 2025; Groom et al., 2016View full citation) was conducted using theophylline as a keyword, focusing on metal complexes. The structures most closely related to the present complex are tetra­aqua­bis­(1,3-dimethyl-2,6-dioxo-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-7H-purin-7-yl)cobalt(II) (El Hamdani et al., 2017View full citation), tetra­aqua­bis­(1,3-dimethyl-2,6-dioxo-3,7-di­hydro-1H-purin-9-ido)magnesium (Shi & Lou, 2015View full citation), and an anhydrous theophylline–copper(I) chloride complex (Biagini Cingi et al., 1983View full citation). Notably, metal complexes in which theophylline is coordinated through the N9 atom of the imidazole ring typically adopt a trans square-planar coordination environment, which further supports the structural assignment of the present PdII complex. The survey also revealed that the crystal structure of bis(7-benzyl-1,3-dimethyl-3,7-di­hydro-1H-purine-2,6-dione)palladium(II) dichloride has not been reported previously.

5. Synthesis and crystallization

To a 500 mL pear-shaped flask equipped with a condenser, methanol (500 mL), K2CO3 (9.67 g, 70.0 mmol), and theophylline (11.62 g, 64.5 mmol) were added. Benzyl chloride (7.59 g, 59.9 mmol) was then introduced, and the mixture was refluxed at 353 K for 48 h. Afterwards, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was extracted with chloro­form and water. The chloro­form layer was concentrated, and the resulting crude product 7-benzyl­theophylline (BzT) was recrystallized from an n-hexa­ne/ethyl acetate mixture to yield a white crystalline powder (8.32 g, 51.3% isolated yield). Complexation of BzT and palladium(II) chloride was carried out in a water–ethanol system. An ethanol solution of BzT (5.0 mmol dm−3) was prepared by dissolving 337.6 mg of BzT in 250 mL of analytical-grade ethanol. An aqueous solution of PdCl2 (5.0 mmol dm−3) was prepared by dissolving palladium(II) chloride in 1.0 M hydro­chloric acid. Equal volumes (250 mL each) of the two solutions were mixed and allowed to stand for ten days. The yellow precipitates (PdBzT) that formed spontaneously was collected by filtration, washed alternatively with water and ethanol, and dried under ambient conditions to give PdBzT in 83.4% yield (0.3744 g). Single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by vapor-diffusion crystallization, in which a chloro­form solution of the PdBzT complex placed in a small sample vial was allowed to slowly equilibrate with methanol vapor in a larger sealed sample vial at room temperature.

6. Refinement

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 1[link]. All H atoms, except those of the partial occupancy water mol­ecule were located in a difference-Fourier map. Then the methyl H atoms were constrained to an ideal geometry (C—H = 0.98 Å), with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C), and were allowed to rotate freely about the parent N—C bonds. All other H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H distances of 0.95 (aromatic, alkene) or 0.99 Å (methyl­ene), and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). An ideal geometry for the H atoms of the water mol­ecule was generated (O—H = 0.87 Å) and then the orientation and position of the water mol­ecule were refined as a rigid group with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.
