Synthesis and structure of a chiral dinuclear palladium(0) complex with a 30-membered hexaolefinic macrocyclic ligand

Selective and efficient preparation of a new chiral dipalladium(0) complex with an olefinic macrocyclic ligand named (E,E,E,E,E,E)-1,6,11,16,21,26-hexakis[(4-methylphenyl)sulfonyl]-1,6,11,16,21,26-hexaazacyclotriaconta-3,8,13,18,23,28-hexaenedipalladium(0) (5) is reported. Dinuclear palladium(0) complex 5 has been fully characterized by means of NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis.
