Abstract
The structure of the first iminoquinonoid complex Pd2Cl2(PPh3)2L·0.4(Me2CO), where L = N,N′-di(4-methyl-4-trichloromethylcyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene)hydrazine, was established by X-ray crystallography. The centrosymmetric and non-centrosymmetric molecules of meso-form (RS) and the molecule of optically active (SS) threo-form were found to be simultaneously present (cocrystallize) in the crystal. The molecule in the crystal has a general formula [Pd(meso-L)]2[Pd(threo-L)].
