Abstract: | A novel Pd(II)-dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6) complex K(DB18C6)]2Pd(SCN)4] has been isolated and characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. In the solid state, it displays a quasi-one-dimensional infinite chain of two K(DB18C6)] + complex cations and a Pd(SCN)4]2- anion bridged by K+-p interactions between adjacent K(DB18C6)] + units. |
