As. Abu-surrah et al., An alkyl-palladium(II) complex with a bidentate phosphine ligand: [1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane-P,P ']dimethylpalladium(II) toluene hemisolvate, ACT CRYST C, 56, 2000, pp. E42-E43
In the title compound, [Pd(CH3)(2)(C27H26P2)]. 0.5C(7)H(8), the Pd atom is
at the centre of an approximately square-planar arrangement of two P atoms
and two methyl groups. The P-Pd-P angle [93.19 (3)degrees] is significantly
larger than that in the corresponding dichloride complex [Pd(dppp)Cl-2]. T
he toluene molecule is disordered across an inversion centre.
