Abstract
In the title complex, [PdCl2(C12H8N2)], the Pd2+ ion is four-coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar environment by two N atoms of the chelating 1,10-phenanthroline ligand and two chloride ions. The nearly planar molecules, with a maximum deviation of 0.120 (3) Å from the least-squares plane, are stacked in columns along the c axis with a Pd⋯Pd distance of 4.8340 (9) Å. In the column, π–π interactions between adjacent six-membered rings are present, the shortest centroid–centroid distance being 3.680 (4) Å. A weak C—H⋯Cl interaction is observed between the columns.
