“…Thermal ellipsoids are drawn at the 50% probability level and hydrogens in calculated positions are omitted for clarity. R = OCH 2 CH 2 OEt (9), Dd = 30.47 ppm [15]) and for a complex with a long chain bis(phosphite) ligands (cis-Mo(CO) 4 {(2,2 0 -C 12 H 8 O 2 )PO(CH 2 CH 2 O) 4 P(2,2 0 -C 12 H 8 O 2 )} (10), Dd = 29.70 ppm) [16]. The coordination chemical shifts for the cis-PtCl 2 (1) complex (4, À57.07 ppm) and the cis-PdCl 2 L complexes (L = 1 (5), À33.32 ppm; L = 2 (7); À33.06 ppm) were compared to those of similar complexes of the monodentate (2,2 0 -C 12 H 8 O 2 )POCH 2-CH 2 OEt ligand, (cis-PtCl 2 L 2 (11), À54.10 ppm; cis-PdCl 2 L 2 (12), À30.09 ppm) [15].…”
