Oxidation of complexes by (O2CPh)(2) and (ER)(2) (E = S, Se), including structures of Pd(CH2CH2CH2CH2)(SePh)(2)(bpy) (bpy = 2,2 '-bipyridine) and MMe2(SePh)(2)(L-2) (M = Pd, Pt; L-2 = bpy, 1,10-phenanthroline) and C···O and C···E bond formation at palladium(IV)

X-ray structural studies of the octahedral dimethylpalladium-(IV) complexes and their isomorphous platinum(IV) analogues have been completed [L 2 = bpy, orthorhombic Pnma; L 2 = phen, triclinic P1̄; an additional phase for PtMe 2(SePh) 2(phen), tetragonal, I4 1/a]. The complexes PdMe 2(SePh) 2(L 2) decompose at moderate temperatures in CDCl 3 following first-order behavior [L 2 = bpy, E a ̃ 46 kJ mol -1, ΔS‡(20°C) ∼ -170 J K -1 mol -1; L 2 = phen, E a ∼36 kJ mol -1, ΔS‡(20°C) ∼ -204 J K -1 mol -1] to give ethane and Se(Ph)Me, together with small quantities of SePh 2. Similar C⋯C, C⋯O, C⋯S, and C⋯Se bond formation processes occur on decomposition of palladium(IV) species that are too unstable to be isolated on the oxidation of PdMe 2(bpy) or Pd(CH 2CH 2CH 2CH 2)(bpy) by (O 2CPh) 2 or (SPh) 2.
