Summary

A Pd(II) complex of a new N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand with bulky substituents and functionalized methoxy-donor side arms has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, 1H and 13C NMR, and IR spectroscopy. Molecular and crystal structures of the title complex have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c, with a = 15.927(2), b = 8.489(2), c = 20.309(5) Å, β = 99.213(2)°, Z = 2, Dx = 1.253 g cm−3. The palladium atom is situated on an inversion center. There are several weak intramolecular C-H ··· N/O interactions.
