J. Valdés-Martínez, R. A. Toscano and J. M. Germán-Acacio

Abstract: In the title compound, (C₁₀H₁₀N₂)[PdCl₄], the Pd atom in the tetrachloridopalladate anion exhibits a square-planar geometry. The anion is hydrogen bonded to the bipyridinium cation by an N-HCl hydrogen bond to form chains. The bipyridinium cation and the tetrachloridopalladate anion exhibit perfect 2/m symmetry with the Pd atom located on a 2/m symmetry site.
