[2-(2-Acetyl-2-ethoxycarbonyl-1-methoxyethyl)-8-quinolinolato-C,N,O](pyridine-N)palladium(II)

The title compound, [Pd(C₁₇H₁₇NO₅)(C₅H₅N)], is the diastereomer with opposite configurations at the two chiral centers, and is racemic. The two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit differ in conformation primarily by a rotation of 167.0 (6)° about the C-C_ester bond. The Pd-O bond lengths are 2.105 (3) and 2.080 (3) Å, and the Pd-C distances are 2.106 (4) and 2.117 (3) Å.
