A tiara-like octanuclear palladium thiolate complex, [Pd(μ-SCH 2CO2Me)2]8, that has a toroidal structure was synthesized via reactions of either PdCl2 with methyl thioglycolate/N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIEA) (conventional method) or [PdCl2(MeCN)2] with m-C6H4(CMe 2SCH2CO2Me)2 (alternative method). In the latter method, the tiara-like complex formed via the corresponding SCS-pincer complex and/or 1:1 PdCl2 and ligand complexes. With respect to the platinum analogues, the alternative method efficiently produced the tiara-like octanuclear complex [Pt(μ-SCH2CO 2Me)2]8 in high purity. Small molecules, such as CH2Cl2, ClCH2CH2Cl, CH 2Br2, and CH3I, were accommodated in the inner voids of the tiara rings to form 1:1 inclusion complexes. These complexes are stabilized not only by weak CH...X hydrogen bonds (X = Cl or Br) between the methylene protons of four or eight axially positioned methoxycarbonylmethyl groups on the tiara rings and the halogen atoms of the guest molecules but also by weak coordination of the halogen atoms to the transition-metal atoms.
