(±)-Di-μ-chlorido-(μ-<i>N</i>,<i>N</i>'-{[3,3'-methylenebis(2,4,6-trimethyl-3,1-phenylene)]dimethylene}bis(2-methylpropan-2-amine))bis[chloridopalladium(II)]

In the title dinuclear palladium complex, [Pd₂Cl₄ (C₂₉H₄₆N₂)], the terminal ligands adopt an anti configuration, with an intramolecular metal-metal distance of 3.3625 (5) Å. The dinuclear palladium complex adopts a V-shaped conformation, with a dihedral angle of 152.67 (3)° between the two chloride-bridged PdNCl₃ square-planar systems. The benzene rings in the chelating amine ligand are at an angle of 74.9 (1)° with respect to each other. The complex is the first example of chloride-bridged dinuclear palladium complex with a bidentate secondary amine ligand.
