Abstract: The title compound, [PdBr₂(C₂₄H₃₁P)₂], has a distorted trans square-planar coordination of the Pd atom, which occupies an inversion centre. The most important bond distances include Pd-P of 2.380 (2) Å and Pd-Br of 2.515 (2) Å. Weak intermolecular - interactions between the benzene rings of adjacent molecules [centroid-centroid distance = 3.949 (6) Å] are present via crystallographic inversion centres, resulting in a one-dimensional supramolecular architecture.
