Abstract

The title compound, [Pd(2)(C(9)H(11)ClN)(2)Cl(2)], consists of two Pd atoms which are bridged by two Cl atoms, forming a centrosymmetric binuclear complex with a square-planar coordination for each of the Pd atoms. The Pd atom is chelated by one N and one C atom from a 4-chloro-2-(dimethyl-amino-meth-yl)phenyl ligand, forming a five-membered ring (N-Pd-C-C-C). In the crystal structure, weak C-H ⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules in rows.
