Palladium and Molybdenum Complexes of the Heteroleptic Organostannylene [2,6-(Me2NCH2)2C6H3]SnCl

The synthesis and molecular structures are reported for the transition metal heteroleptic organo-stannylene complexes {[2,6-(Me2NCH2)(2)C6H3]SnCl}(C5H5)(CO)(2)MoCl (6) and {[2,6-(Me2NC-H-2)(2)C6H3]Sn(OAc)}Pd(Cl)[2-(Me2NCH2)C6H4] (7). It is shown that the intramolecularly coordinated heteroleptic organostannylene [2,6-(Me2NCH2)(2)C6H3]SnCl undergoes a redox-type reaction with Pd(PPh3)(4) to give cis- [2,6-(Me2NCH2)(2)C6H3]SnCl}(2)PdCl2.
