The title compound, [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene-κ2P,P′]bis(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzenethiolato-κS)palladium(II), [FePd(C6F5S)2(C17H14P)2], crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The complex has the palladium metal center in a slightly distorted square-planar environment with the 1,10-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) ligand coordinated in a bidentate fashion and, completing the coordination environment, the two –SC6F5 thiolates in a cis configuration. The molecules are linked by weak C—F⋯π, C—F⋯F—C and C—H⋯F stacking interactions.
