Abstract

The Schiff base bis(4-ethylbenzyl) p-phenylenediimine, 4-eb-p-phen (1), and six new dimeric Pd(II) complexes of the type [Pd(μ-X)(4-eb-p-phen)]2 {X = Cl (2), Br (3), I (4), N3 (5), NCO (6), SCN (7)} have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and 1H and 13C{1H}-NMR experiments. The thermal behavior of the complexes 27 has been investigated by means of thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis. From the final decomposition temperatures, the thermal stability of the complexes can be ordered in the following sequence: 3 > 4 > 7 > 2 ≈ 5 > 6. The final products of the thermal decompositions were characterized as metallic palladium by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD).
