Abstract
The palladium(II) chlorostibine complex
[PdCl2(SbMe2Cl)2]2 has a dimeric structure in the solid
state, stabilized by hyper-coordination at the Lewis
amphoteric Sb centers. Reaction with 8 equiv of MeLi
forms [Pd4(μ3-SbMe3)4(SbMe3)4], whose structure comprises a tetrahedral Pd(0) core with four terminal SbMe3
ligands and four μ3-SbMe3 ligands, one capping each
triangular Pd3 face. Density functional theory calculations,
supported by energy decomposition analysis and the
natural orbitals for chemical valence scheme, highlight
significant donor and acceptor orbital contributions to the
bonding between both the terminal and the bridging
SbMe3 ligands and the Pd4 core.
