A simple reduction of the Pd II complex 1 affords the Pd I dimer 2 , featuring a μ 2 symmetrically bridging phosphole unit, and thus a novel coordination mode for a tertiary phosphane. Complex 2 appears to be very stable towards additional ligands such as CO and PPh 3 , and the structural data are in accordance with calculations, which reveal that the Pd−Pd and Pd−P bonding is highly delocalized.
