Popis: The electronic structures and the character of the electron density redistribution in the palladium complexes with the redox-active ligands in the oxidized and nonoxidized forms are studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. According to the photoelectron spectroscopic data, the redox-active ligands exist in different oxidation states due to the redox process proceeding “at ligand.” It is shown that the transition from the neutral to oxidized semiquinone form (from [Pd(LMe)2]·2Cl·H2O to [Pd $$\left( {{\text{L}}_{{{\text{Ph}}}}^{{{\text{ISQ}}}}} \right)$$ 2]) occurs in the ligand and involves no palladium ions, and the oxidation state of palladium remains unchanged: Pd(II). A significant difference in the photoelectron spectroscopic characteristics obtained for the oxidized trans-complex at 298 and 153 K indicates a specific electronic lability of this complex.
