The title compound, [Pd(C(18)H(14)PS)(2)], was synthesized by the reaction of (Ph(2)PC(6)H(4)SH) with [PdCl(2)(NCC(6)H(5))(2)] in a 2:1 molar ratio in the presence of a slight excess of NEt(3 )as base in dichloro-methane. The compound crystallizes with the Pd(II) atom on a twofold rotation axis. The palladium center has a slightly distorted square-planar environment, with the two P-S chelating ligands adopting a cis configuration. The present structure is a pseudo-polymorph of [Pd(C(18)H(14)PS)(2)]·CH(2)Cl(2).
