title: trans-Chloro(2-nitrobenzenethiolato-S)bis(triphenylphosphine-P)pallad ium(II) monoacetone solvate
abstract: Molecules of the title compound, [PdCl(C(6)H(4)NO(2)S)(PPh(3))(2)]. C(3)H(6)O, exhibit a slight distortion from exact planarity at the Pd atom towards tetrahedral, with P-Pd-P and Cl-Pd-S angles of 174. 98 (3) and 174.19 (3) degrees, respectively. The Pd-Cl and Pd-S bonds are, respectively, long [2.3550 (11) A] and short [2.3020 (12) A] for their types; the S-C bond is also very short [1.744 (4) A]. The solvating acetone molecule is linked to one of the phosphine ligands by means of a C-H.O hydrogen bond.
