title: trans-Dichloridobis[tris-(2-methoxy-phen-yl)phosphine]palladium(II).
abstract: The structure of the title compound, [PdCl(2)(C(21)H(21)O(3)P)(2)], shows a nearly square-planar geometry for the Pd(II) atom within the Cl(2)Pd[P(PhOMe)(3)](2) ligand set. The Pd(II) atom sits on a centre of inversion and therefore the asymmetric unit contains one half-mol-ecule, i.e. half of one Pd(II) atom, one Cl atom and one tris-(2-methoxy-phen-yl)phosphine ligand.
