Product Information

• Name: Bis(Benzonitrile)palladium(II) chloride
• Synonyms: Palladium(II) chloride bis(benzonitrile) complex
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Bis(benzonitrile)palladium(II) chloride is a palladium complex with the coordination geometry of square-planar. It has been shown to undergo a suzuki coupling reaction when reacted with an aromatic hydrocarbon, such as benzene or toluene, in the presence of sodium carbonate and nitrogen gas. This reaction produces an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the oxygen atom of the hydroxyl group and the nitrogen atom on the chelate ligand. Bis(benzonitrile)palladium(II) chloride has also been shown to be useful for generating x-ray crystal structures of metal complexes by using ft-ir spectroscopy. The chlorine atom from bis(benzonitrile)palladium(II) chloride may react with hydrochloric acid to produce a soluble complex that can be isolated by crystallography.
