TY - JOUR T1 - From Pincer to Paddlewheel: C–H and C–S Bond Activation at Bis(2-pyridylthio)methane by Palladium(II) JF - Inorganic Chemistry Y1 - 2019 A1 - Halder, Partha A1 - SantaLucia, Daniel A1 - Park, Sungho V. A1 - Berry, John F. AB -

The bis(2-pyridylthio)methanidopalladium(II) pincer complex (1), containing a Pd–C bond, was obtained from the reaction of bis(2-pyridylthio)methane (H2L) with palladium(II) acetate in toluene under reflux. When palladium(II) trifluoroacetate was used, H2L reacted to generate the tetrakis(pyridine-2-thiol)palladium(II) complex (2). Complex 2 was converted to a heterobimetallic palladium(II)–iron(II) paddlewheel complex (3) upon treatment with iron(II) triflate in the presence of a base in acetonitrile at room temperature.
