Abstract

The crystal structures of the well-known complexes, [(Me 4en)M(II)X 2] (Me 4en = N,N,N t,N t-tetramethylethylenediamine; M(II) = Pd(II) or Pt(II); X- = NO 2 - or NO 3 -) have been determined. For [(Me 4en)- Pd(NO 2) 2] and [(Me 4en)Pt(NO 2) 2], the nitrite anion acts as a monodentate N-donor ligand in the solid state. In contrast, for [(Me 4en)Pd(ONO 2)(O 2NO)], the two nitrate anions act as a monodentate O-donor (ONO2) and a bidentate O,O'-donor (O 2NO). Recrystallization of [(Me 4en)Pt(NO 3) 2] from Me 2SO yields the Me 2SO adduct with a monodentate O-donor nitrate and a counteranionic nitrate, [(Me 4en)Pt(ONO 2)(S-Me 2SO)](NO 3). The solution behavior of these complexes, including the equilibrium between coordinated and free Me 2SO, has been investigated.
