Abstract
Two new chiral hexanuclear palladium(ii) complexes [Pd6(Cys) 4(CysH)4][Pd6(CysH)8]Cl 4·24H2O (1) and [Pd6(HCys) 10](NO3)2·11H2O (2) are prepared through careful control of the reaction conditions. Both complexes comprise two alternately arranged isomerous hexanuclear Pd(ii) clusters. As supported by ESI-MS spectra and CD analyses, the integrity of the structures can be maintained in aqueous solution and the chirality of l-Cys ligands can be preserved to the multinuclear Pd complexes.
