Abstract

The complexes trans-[FeI2(CN-3-pyridyl)4], trans-[PdI2(CNR)2] (CNR = 2-, 3- and 4-isocyanopyridine, 3-isocyanoquinoline, 4-isocyanoquinaldine, 5-isocyanoquinoline, 5-isocyanoisoquinoline) and trans-[PtI2(CNR)2] (CNR = 3-isocyanopyridine,5-isocyanoquinoline) were prepared. The new complexes are thermally stable up to 150°C or higher. The molecular structure of trans-[PdI2(CN-3-quinolyl)2] was determined by X-ray crystallography: monoclinic space group P21/c, a = 5.8381 (5), b = 23.685(2), c = 7.2122(6) Å, β = 97.628(8)°, Z = 2, 1170 unique reflections, R = 0.035, Rw = 0.035. In the crystal, the molecular units are packed to form two-dimensional sheets which are held together by π stacking of the 3-quinolyl groups.
