title: Bis{benzyl 3-[(1H-indol-3-yl)methyl-idene]dithio-carbazato-κN,S}palladium(II) pyridine disolvate.
abstract: The Pd(II) ion in the title compound, [Pd(C(17)H(14)N(3)S(2))(2)]·2C(5)H(5)N, is located on an inversion center and is four-coordinated by two of the deprotonated N,S-bidentate Schiff base ligands in a square-planar geometry. The dihedral angle between the aromatic ring planes within the ligand is 71.12 (9)°. The indole NH groups are bonded to the pyridine solvent mol-ecules via an N-H⋯N inter-action. The crystal structure is consolidated by inter-molecular C-H⋯S inter-actions.
