Abstract
In the title compound, [PdBr2(C19H17P)2], the PdII ion resides on a centre of symmetry and is coordinated by two Br anions [Pd—Br = 2.4266 (2) Å] and two P-donor ligands [Pd—P = 2.3462 (5) Å] in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry [P—Pd—Br = 93.528 (12)°]. Weak intermolecular C—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds link molecules into chains extended in [10].
