	abstract = {An X-ray diffraction study on syn-Pd2Cl2(dppmMe)(2), syn-1, shows an unusual boat-like conformation of the eight-membered Pd2P4C2 ring. This conformation, containing equatorial Me groups, facilitates access of the Pd-Pd bond to small molecules such as CO, SO2, and elemental sulfur or selenium, and makes the syn isomer more reactive than anti-1. A comparison of bond angles around the Pd and P atoms in the syn- and anti-isomers reveals a more strained geometry of the former, which may also contribute to the stronger propensity of syn-1 to form A-frame adducts. Solution NMR/NOE studies on syn- and anti-1 and their (mu-Se) adducts reveal the structural rigidity of these complexes; the Me groups inhibit the interchange of axial and equatorial positions on the bridging methine C-atom, and solution structures correspond to those in the solid state. The X-ray structure of Pd2Cl2(dppm)(2) is, as expected, like that of the corresponding bromo, complex; both are analogous to that of anti-1 which adopts a chair conformation within both the fused, five-membered rings.

The reactions of 1 and 2 with olefins (ethylene, maleic anhydride, diethyl maleate, and olefinic nitriles) are studied and some square-planar Pt(PR3)2(eta-2-olefin) species isolated (PR3 = the pyridylphosphine). No olefin hydration products are observed on heating the olefin complexes in aqueous solution. Oxidative addition of MeI to 1 and to 2 gives the trans-PtI(Me)(PR3)2 species. However, the trans-Pt(H)Cl(PR3)2 species is isolated only from reaction of 2 with gaseous HCl; the hydride reacts with acrylonitrile to form cis-PtCl(CH2CH2CN)(PR3)2.},
