Bis{[2,2′-(5,8,11-tri­thia-2,14-di­aza­penta­deca-1,14-diene-1,15-di­yl)diphenolato]palladium(II)} aceto­nitrile monosolvate

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Pd(C₂₂H₂₆N₂O₂S₃)]₂·CH₃CN, contains two complex mol­ecules and a single uncoordinated lattice aceto­nitrile solvent mol­ecule. The Pd^II cations have a trans-N₂O₂ square-planar geometry and the superposition of the two crystallographically independent Pd^II complexes yields an overall r.m.s. deviation of 0.292 Å. The Pd...Pd separation in the asymmetric unit is 3.3776 (3) Å, while the PdN₂O₂ plane–plane fold angle is 1.62 (7)°. A short inter­molecular S...S contact between the central S atom of one complex and its inversion-related symmetry equivalent of 3.663 (2) Å is observed. Part of the ligand chain (S—C—C—S) in each complex mol­ecule is disordered over two orientations and refined occupancies that converged to 0.450 (10) and 0.550 (10) for the one complex mol­ecule, and 0.789 (9) and 0.211 (9) for the other.
