Tetra-microchloro-1:2kappa(4)Cl;1:3kappa(4)Cl-bis(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine)-2kappa(2)N,3kappa(2)N-lithium(I)dipalladium(II) tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate dichloromethane 1.196-solvate.
In the crystal structure of the title compound, [LiPd(2)Cl(4)(C(12)H(12)N(2))(2)](C(24)F(20)B).1.196CD(2)Cl(2) or [[(Me(2)bipy)PdCl(2)](2)(micro-Li)](+).B(C(6)F(5))(4)(-).1.196CD(2)Cl(2) (Me(2)bipy is 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine), an Li(+) cation is stabilized by complexation with two (Me(2)bipy)PdCl(2) units through weak Li-Cl interactions. This compound is thus a rare example of a complex that exhibits an arrested Cl(-) abstraction.
