Crystal structure of bis-{μ-2-[(di-methyl-amino)-meth-yl]ferrocene-seleno-lato}bis[chlorido-palladium(II)].

ABSTRACT: The dinuclear title compound, [PdCl{Se[(C5H5)Fe(C5H3)2CH2N(CH3)2]}]2 was obtained by the reaction of [PdCl2(NCPh)2] with 2-[(N,N'-di-methyl-amino)-meth-yl]ferro-cene-seleno-late and the crystals for the structure determination were grown from a mixture of THF and n-hexane. Both Pd(II) atoms are coordinated by the bridging Se atoms and by the amino N atoms of the bidentate 2-[(N,N'-di-methyl-amino)-meth-yl]ferrocene-seleno-late ligand, as well as by Cl atoms, and show a distorted square-planar coordination. The angle between the Pd-Se-Se planes of the two Pd atoms is 149.31 (3)°. Weak Cl⋯H hydrogen bonds link the binuclear complexes into a three-dimensional network.
