P Pd Cl Cl
PdPCl2 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. Pd(1) is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one P(1) and one Cl(2) atom. The Pd(1)-P(1) bond length is 2.29 Å. The Pd(1)-Cl(2) bond length is 2.98 Å. P(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Pd(1), one Cl(2), and three equivalent Cl(1) atoms. The P(1)-Cl(2) bond length is 2.65 Å. There is one shorter (1.76 Å) and two longer (2.35 Å) P(1)-Cl(1) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three equivalent P(1) and one Cl(2) atom. The Cl(1)-Cl(2) bond length is 1.86 Å. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Pd(1), one P(1), and one Cl(1) atom.
