In the title compound, trans-[PdCl2{P(C7H7)3}2], where P(C7H7)3 is tri-m-tolyl­phosphine, the Pd atom is on an inversion centre, resulting in a trans-square-planar geometry. Selected geometric parameters are Pd—P and Pd—Cl distances of 2.3289 (4) and 2.2897 (4) Å, respectively, and a P—Pd—Cl angle of 87.77 (2)°. The effective cone angle for the tri-m-tolyl­phosphine is calculated to be 165°.

Experimental. The intensity data were collected on a Bruker X8 APEXII 4 K KappaCCD diffractometer using an exposure time of 10 s/frame. A total of 4504 frames were collected with a frame width of 0.5° covering up to θ = 28.36° with 99.6% completeness accomplished.

Spectroscopic analysis: 1H NMR (CDCl3, 600 MHz, δ, p.p.m.): 7.57 (s, 6H, Ar), 7.44 (s, 6H, Ar), 7.21 (m, 6H, Ar), 7.12–7.03 (m, 6H, Ar), 2.33 (s, 18H, CH3); 13C{H} NMR (CDCl3, 75.45 MHz, δ, p.p.m.): 137.9, 136.2, 132.6, 131.7, 130.1, 128.2, 22.0; 31P{H} NMR (CDCl3, 121.46 MHz, δ, p.p.m.): 24.64.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.
