Syntheses and structural characterizations of four complexes of Pd(II) with ortho-metalated 2-phenylpyridinate (ppy{sup minus}) are reported. These complexes include a parent dimer, (Pd(ppy)Cl){sub 2}, and three derivative monomers, (Pd(ppy)(bpy))Cl, (Pd(ppy)(en))Cl, and (Pd(ppy)(CO)Cl), whereby = 2,2'-bipyridine and en = ethylenediamine. Photophysical characterizations of these species indicate low-energy absorption bands ({approximately}360 nm) and emission bands at 77 K ({approximately}460 nm) that are assigned to transitions located on the ppy{sup {minus}} ligand. Some evidence for low-energy charge-transfer states is found in trends in luminescence lifetimes. 2 tabs., 5 figs., 21 refs.
