Effect of chalcogen bonding interactions on molecular structures; theoretical and crystallographic studies on two palladium(<scp>ii</scp>) acetate complexes

New palladium complexes, [Pd(L)(OAc))], have been synthesized. The complexes and their ligand have been characterized by X-ray crystal structure analysis. Interestingly, the molecular structures of the two complexes are stabilized by S⋯O chalcogen bonds.
