Syntheses and crystal structures of a series of palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes bearing new hydrazine-based bisphosphinite ligands equipped with pyridyl arms

摘要

This paper reports the synthesis of the hydrazine-based bisphosphinito ligands (RO)(2)PN(Me)N(Me)P(OR)(2) (R = 2-hydroxy-6-methyl-pyridyl or 3-hydroxy-6-methyl-pyridyl) and their palladium and platinum complexes whose structures were unequivocally determined by X-ray crystallography.
