Abstract: In the title compound, [PdBr₂(C₁₈H₁₅As)₂], the Pd^II ion resides on a centre of symmetry and is coordinated by two As atoms [Pd-As = 2.4184 (3) Å] and two Br anions [Pd-Br = 2.4196 (3) Å] in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry [As-Pd-Br = 90.12 (1)°]. The crystal packing exhibits weak intermolecular C-HBr interactions.
