Abstract

The title complex, [PdCl2(C9H13N)2], comprises a single mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. The PdII atom is tetra-coordinated by two N atoms from two trans-aligned organic ligands and two Cl ligands, forming a square-planar metal coordination environment. The distances from the ortho-H atoms on the phenyl ring to the central PdII atom fall within the range 4.70-5.30 Å, precluding any significant intra-molecular Pd⋯H inter-actions.

Keywords: amine; crystal structure; monodentate ligand; palladium(II) complex.
