Abstract
The reaction of cis-[PdCl2(PPh3)(2)] with 8-(methylthio)-theophylline (HL) leads to the formation of trans-[PdCl(L)(PPh3)(2)], an N(7)-Pd-bo nded complex, which under mild conditions converts into the mixed-liga nd complex trans-[Pd(L')(PPh3)(2)] (HL' is theophylline). Noteworthy, the latter represents the first example of a C(8)-Pd-bonded complex.
