Ir. Butler et al., THE PALLADIUM(II) COORDINATION CHEMISTRY OF FERROCENYLPHOSPHINOBIPYRIDINES - A NOVEL TRANS-CHELATING LIGAND SYSTEM, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (4), 1995, pp. 459-460
The reaction of dichloro(cycloocta-1,5-diene)palladium(II) with 1-diph
enyl-(L(1)) or -butyl)-phosphino-1'-[6-(2,2'-bipyridyl)]ferrocene (L(2
)) results in the novel trans-coordination geometry with the beta-pyri
dinyl ring and the phosphine group binding to the,metal centre, as pro
ved by a crystal structure determination of [PdCl(2)L(1)][PdCl2(cod)].
