The title compound, [Pd(SC6H4F-p)Cl(PPh3)2]·0.5CH3OH, features a PdII complex with two triphenylphosphane (PPh3) ligands arranged in a trans conformation, with one chloride and one 4-fluorobenzenethiolate ligand completing the coordination sphere, giving rise to a slightly distorted square-planar geometry of the PdII ion. The methanol solvent molecule is disordered about an inversion centre with an occupancy of 0.25 for each molecule. In the crystal, weak C—HCl hydrogen-bonding interactions between the complex molecules generate chain frameworks parallel to [010].
