✦ Synopsis

are observed in the infrared spectrum at 2069 and 2025 cm-1 (solution in acetone); accordingly, the [Pd(N3)3Ie anion cannot have a trigonal planar structure [*I.

Triphenylphosphine reacts with aqueous solutions of Pd(N03)Z and NaN3, which were already suspected to contain the ions [Pd(N,)s]@ and [Pd(N3)4]20 141, by substitution of the azido ligands and formation of the yellow diamagnetic compound [(C6H&P]zPd(N3)2. The occurrence of only one azide band at 2033 cm-1 (solution in chloroform) suggests that this non-ionic complex has a trans-planar structure.
