Structures of a single-component palladium complex with extended TTF-type dithiolate ligands, bis(tetrathiafulvalenedithiolato)palladium determined by powder X-ray diffraction
A new palladium complex with extended-TTF (TTF = tetrathiafulvalene) dithiolate ligands, [Pd(dt)(2)] (dt = tetrathiafulvalenedithiolate) was prepared and its crystal structure was determined by synchrotron radiation X-ray powder experiments. [Pd(dt)(2)] is a semiconductor with a room temperature conductivity of 0.3 S cm(-1).
