Abstract: | The manganese(II)‐palladium(II)‐sulfide complex MnCl2(μ3‐S)2Pd2(dppp)2] ( 2 ) was prepared from the reaction of PdCl2(dppp)] with Li(N,N'‐tmeda)]2Mn(SSiMe3)4] ( 2 ) in a 2:1 ratio under mild conditions. The new trimethylsilylthiolate complex Pd(dppp)(SSiMe3)2] ( 3 ) was synthesized from the reaction of Pd(dppp)(OAc)2] with two equivalents of LiSSiMe3]; this was then used in a reaction with Mn(CH3CN)2(OTf)2] to form the manganese(II)‐palladium(II)‐sulfide cluster Mn(OTf)(thf)2(μ3‐S)2Pd2(dppp)2]OTf ( 4 ). |
