%X Palladium(II) ammine complexes enriched in 15N give sharp singlets in their 15N n.m.r . spectra. The 15N chemical shifts depend primarily on the trans donor atom, in a qualitatively similar way to those for platinum(II) ammine complexes. A dimethylformamide solution of Pd(NH3)2Cl2 prepared in the usual way gave a single peak, consistent with the presence of only one isomer (trans). Reactions of increasing amounts of aqueous perchloric acid with Pd(NH3)42+ allowed peaks to be identified for Pd(NH3)3(H2O)2+, cis -Pd(NH3)2(H2O)22+ and Pd(NH3)(H2O)32+. The initial product of the reaction of trans-Pd(NH3)2Cl2 with silver ion is trans-Pd(NH3)2(H2O)22+, which rapidly disproportionates to Pd(NH3)3(H2O)2+ and Pd(NH3)(H2O)32+. With standing, subsequent reactions ultimately produce a solution containing predominantly cis -Pd(NH3)2(H2O)22+ in equilibrium with small amounts of the tri- and mono-ammine complexes, and free ammonia.
