title: trans-Dichloridobis[(pyridin-4-yl)boronic acid-κN]palladium(II) dimethyl sulfoxide disolvate.
abstract: In the title compound, [PdCl(2)(C(5)H(6)BNO(2))(2)]·2C(2)H(6)OS, the Pd(II) ion is located on an inversion centre and is four-coordinated in a trans square-planar geometry by two chloride ions and two (pyridin-4-yl)boronic acid ligands. The Pd-N and Pd-Cl distances are 2.023 (2) and 2.2977 (7) Å, respectively, and the average N-Pd-Cl angle is 90°. The dimethyl sulfoxide solvent mol-ecules play a key role in the crystal structure by bridging the complex mol-ecules via O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming tapes running along the b axis. C-H⋯O inter-actions also contribute to the cohesion of the crystal.
