Abstract
The molecule of the title compound, [Pd2Cl4(C 19H17P)2] or [Pd(μ2-Cl) Cl(PPh2Bz)]2, where Bz = CH2Ph, lies on an inversion centre. The Pd atom has a distorted square-planar coordination environment formed by a benzyldiphenylphosphine [Pd-P = 2.2218 (6) Å], a terminal chloride [Pd-Cl = 2.2729 (5) Å] and two bridging chloride ligands. The Pd-Cl bond in the position trans to the phosphine ligand [Pd-Cl = 2.4123 (5) Å] is considerably longer than the Pd-Cl bond in the position trans to the terminal chloride [Pd-Cl = 2.3155 (5) Å].
