Carborane-Based Pincers: Synthesis and Structure of SeBSe and SBS Pd(ll) Complexes.

The article discusses the complexes of the first carbonare-based pincer ligand family metalated with palladium (Pd). It refers to the density functional theory (DFT) calculations, indicating that the electronic structure of the complex derived from the new ligand is separated from its hydrocarbon an...

Description
Summary:The article discusses the complexes of the first carbonare-based pincer ligand family metalated with palladium (Pd). It refers to the density functional theory (DFT) calculations, indicating that the electronic structure of the complex derived from the new ligand is separated from its hydrocarbon analogues. It defines the solid-state molecular structure of the complex using the single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Insights from the preliminary DFT calculations are provided.
