Palladium(II) complex with thiazole containing tridentate ONN donor ligand: Synthesis, X-ray structure and DFT computation

• Palladium(II) complex.
• Thiazole containing ONN donor ligand.
• X-ray and electronic structure.
• Electrochemistry.
• DFT and TDDFT calculation.

New palladium(II) complex with 2-(2-thiazolyl)-4-methylphenol (TAC) having general formula [Pd(TAC)Cl) (1) has been synthesized and characterized. The complex has been characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. Single crystal X-ray structure shows distorted square planar geometry around palladium(II). Cyclic voltammetric studies shows ligand based irreversible oxidation and reduction peaks. The electronic structure, redox properties and electronic excitations in the complex are interpreted by DFT and TDDFT calculations.
