title: cis-[1,4-Bis(diphenylphosphino)butane](mu-tetrathiotungstato)palladium(II) N,N'-dimethylformamide hemisolvate hemihydrate.
abstract: In the title compound, [1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane-2kappa(2)P,P']di-mu-thio-1:2kappa(4)S-dithio-1kappa(2)S-palladium(II)tungsten(VI) N,N'-dimethylformamide hemisolvate hemihydrate, [PdWS(4)(C(28)H(28)P(2))].0.5C(3)H(7)NO.0.5H(2)O, the Pd atom is coordinated by two S atoms from the distorted-tetrahedral [WS(4)](2-) anion and two P atoms from the dppb molecule [dppb is 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane] in an approximately square-planar configuration. A puckered seven-membered ring is formed by the Pd atom and the dppb ligand.
