trans-Dichloridobis[dicyclo­hex­yl(2,4,6-trimethyl­phen­yl)phosphane-κP]palladium(II)

The title compound, [PdCl₂(C₂₁H₃₃P)₂], forms a monomeric complex with a trans-square-planar coordination geometry about the Pd^II atom which lies on an inversion centre. The Pd—P bond lengths are 2.3760 (13) Å, while the Pd—Cl bond lengths are 2.3172 (14) Å. The observed structure was found to be closely related to that of trans-dichloridobis[dicyclo­hex­yl(phen­yl)phosphane-κP]palladium(II), [PdCl₂{P(C₆H₁₁)₂(C₆H₅)}₂] [Burgoyne et al. (2012). Acta Cryst. E68, m404].

1-(Thio­phen-2-yl)-N-(4-{(E)-[(thio­phen-2-yl)meth­yl]imino­meth­yl}benzyl­idene)methanamine

The title compound C₁₈H₁₆N₂S₂, crystallizes with two independent half-mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit, in one of which the thio­phene rings are disordered in a 0.67:0.33 ratio. Each independent mol­ecule lies across a crystallographic centre of symmetry. The dihedral angle between central (half) benzene ring and the thiophene ring is 11.82°.
