title: Dichlorido[2-(phenyl-imino-meth-yl)quinoline-N,N']palladium(II).
abstract: In the title complex, [PdCl(2)(C(16)H(12)N(2))], the Pd(II) ion is coordinated by two N atoms [Pd-N 2.039 (2), 2.073 (2) Å] from a bidentate ligand and two chloride anions [Pd-Cl 2.2655 (7), 2.2991 (7) Å] in a distorted square-planar geometry. In the crystal, π-π inter-actions between the six-membered rings of the quinoline fragments [centroid-centroid distances = 3.815 (5), 3.824 (5) Å] link two mol-ecules into centrosymmetric dimers.
