Extended intercationic Pd Pd contacts of 3.30 Å in the crystal structure and distinct MMLCT transitions absorbing at 528 nm and emitting beyond 600 nm in solutions have been revealed with cyclometalated Pd( ii ) N-heterocyclic allenylidene complexes. The Pd( ii )-based MMLCT excited states are respo...
