The hollow [PdL][BArF]2 complex 1 of a tetra-pyridyl (py) ligand (L) has a [Pd(py)4]2+ coordination environment. Addition of coordinating anions resulted in the formation of a neutral species with Pd(py)2(anion)2 coordination environment (12A). These species bind further to the coordinating anions in the order Cl- > N3- > Br- > I- > AcO- with Ka1 : 1 ≤ 414 M-1. With relatively non-coordinating anions 1 remains intact and displays 1 : 2 binding behaviour dominated by the 1 : 1 stoichiometry in th ...[more]
