The PdII atom in the title compound, [Pd(C24H49P2)Cl], has a distorted square-planar CClP2 coordination geometry with the P,C,P′-tridentate ligand forming two five-membered metallacycles. The cyclohexane ring is aligned with the PdII coordination plane due to C—H activation in an equatorial position, giving a tri-equatorial conformation of the cyclohexyl ring.
