Di-μ-chlorido-bis­({9-[(2,6-diisopropyl­phen­yl)imino­meth­yl]anthracen-1-yl}palladium(II))

Abstract

The centrosymmetric title compound, [Pd2Cl2(C27H26N)2], was obtained by a C—H bond-activation reaction of a Schiff base ligand with Li2PdCl4 in methanol, and was crystallized from dichloro­methane as orange crystals. The Pd atom displays a slightly distorted square-planar geometry, with the N- and C-atom donors in a cis arrangement
