Abstract
The solid-state structure of the beta-pinene allyl complex [Pd(eta(3)-C10H1 5)(1)]CF3SO3 (1, Josiphos = (Cp)Fe{C5H3(1-CH(CH3)PR21)-2-PR22}), R-1 = Cy, R-2 = Ph, has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The coordinated allyl i s found to be rotated such that one allyl terminus is found almost in the P -Pd-P plane, whereas the second allyl terminus is approximately 0.37 Angstr om below this plane. This structural distortion is suggested to have an ele ctronic, and not a steric origin. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
