The mol­ecular structure of the benzimidazol-2-yl­idene–PdCl2–pyridine-type PEPPSI (pyridine-enhanced precatalyst, preparation, stabilization and initiation) complex {1,3-bis­[2-(diiso­propyl­amino)­eth­yl]benzimidazol-2-yl­idene-κC2}di­chlorido­(pyridine-κN)palladium(II), [PdCl2(C5H5N)(C23H40N4)], has been characterized by elemental analysis, IR and NMR spectroscopy, and natural bond orbital (NBO) and charge decomposition analysis (CDA). Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) searches were used to understand the structural characteristics of the PEPPSI complexes in comparison with the usual N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes. The presence of weak C—H...Cl-type hydrogen-bond and π–π stacking inter­actions between benzene rings were verified using NCI plots and Hirshfeld surface analysis. The preferred method in the CDA of PEPPSI complexes is to separate their geometries into only two fragments, i.e. the bulky NHC ligand and the remaining fragment. In this study, the geometry of the PEPPSI complex is separated into five fragments, namely benzimidazol-2-yl­idene (Bimy), two chlorides, pyridine (Py) and the PdII ion. Thus, the individual roles of the Pd atom and the Py ligand in the donation and back-donation mechanisms have been clearly revealed. The NHC ligand in the PEPPSI complex in this study acts as a strong σ-donor with a considerable amount of π-back-donation from Pd to Ccarbene. The electron-poor character of PdII is supported by π-back-donation from the Pd centre and the weakness of the Pd—N(Py) bond. According to CSD searches, Bimy ligands in PEPPSI complexes have a stronger σ-donating ability than imidazol-2-yl­idene ligands in PEPPSI complexes.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. The data collection, cell refinement, data reduction and analytical absorption correction were performed using the CrysAlisPro 1.171.38.41 software (Rigaku Oxford Diffraction, 2015). Structure solution was performed using ShelXT (Sheldrick, 2015a) embedded in the Olex2 (Dolomanov et al., 2009) program. The refinement was carried out by full-matrix least-squares method on the positional and anisotropic temperature parameters using ShelXL (Sheldrick, 2015b). All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically.

Comparison of the geometric details (Å, °) of Imy–PdCl2–Py-type PEPPSI complexes with Bimy–PdCl2–Py-type PEPPSI complexes in a trans configuration retrieved from the Cambridge Structural database (CSD). Ψ represents the dihedral angle between the NHC ring and the coordination plane. τ denotes the tilt angle of the Py ring. The number of entries retrieved from the CSD is 105 for Imy–PdCl2–Py-type and 14 for Bimy–PdCl2–Py-type PEPPSI complexes. Relevant s.u. values are given in the text. top
