The synthesis and characterisation of the title complex, , and related mixed-ligand complexes including (A = ortho-metallated azobenzene) are described.The mass spectrum of reveals peaks corresponding to loss of oximato-O and NO from the parent ion.Gaseous HCl cleaves the Pd-N(oxime) bond selectively.Triphenylphosphine cleaves one or both Pd-N(azo) linkages giving and unstable which is also produced by oxidative addition of HL to .In the unidentate and bidentate L groups scramble rapidly at 308 K but slowly at 233 K (1H n.m.r.).Bidentate phosphine and phosphinoarsine cleave the two Pd-N(azo) bonds simultaneously.Unidentate amines, when present in very large excess, produce unstable in which one L is unidentate.Addition of X2 (X= Cl or Br) yields the unstable palladium(IV) complex which is readily reduced to halogeno-bridged palladium(II) species.A cyclic-voltammetric study of the one-electron quasi-reversible reduction of , , etc. at a platinum electrode is briefly reported.
