Synthesis of 4-[(2-imidazylethynyl)]-5-(2-pyridylethynyl)veratrole and characterization of the coordination complexes with silver(I) and palladium(II)

摘要

We describe the design, synthesis and characterization of the ligand, 4-[(2-imidazylethynyl)]-5-(2-pyridylethynyl)veratrole as well its coordination complexes with silver(I) and palladium(II). H-1 NMR titration clearly indicates that 1:1 coordination complexes are formed with both cations. The X-ray structure of the palladium dichloride complex confirms the trans coordination of palladium(II) and the silver trifluoromethanesulfonate complex confirms the linear coordination geometry about silver(I).
