Synthesis reveals stable palladium complex forms with a large ligand, highlighting unique structural properties.
Based on N-(2,7-dimethyloctadienyl)benzimidazole (1), a benzimidazolyl terpene of irregular structure, a palladium(II) complex was obtained in order to study its structure and suitability for biological evaluation. It was found that the volume of ligand 1 is large enough to form a stable trans-complex. According to the results of X-ray diffraction analysis, only [1-(2,7-dimethyl-2,7-octadien-1-yl)benzimidazole]palladium(II) dichloride (2) of trans-configuration is formed.
