Bis[2-phenyl-1-(phenyl­iminio)isoindo­line] di-μ-chlorido-bis­[dichloridopalladate(II)] benzene disolvate

In the title compound, (C20H17N2)2[Pd2Cl6]·2C6H6, the dichloride-bridged [Pd2Cl6]2− anion lies across an inversion center with each PdII ion in a slightly distorted square-planar environment. In the crystal structure, two cations and an anion are connected via N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds between the NH groups of the iminioisoindoline cations and terminal Cl atoms of a hexa­chloridodipalladate(II) anion. The Pd—Cl distance of the terminal chloride engaged in hydrogen bonding is slightly longer than the Pd—Cl distance of the adjacent terminal chloride which is not involved in hydrogen bonding.
