The ligand (30.9 mg, 0.1 mmol) in CHCl3 (2 ml) was added to PdCl2 (17.8 mg, 0.1 mmol) dissolved in MeCN (20 ml). The mixture was stirred for 1 min, filtered and then set aside for the solvent to evaporate. Yield 34.5 mg (70%). Analysis found: C 42.10, H 2.46, N 5.76%; calculated for C17H12Cl2N2PdS2: C 42.03, H 2.49, N 5.77%.
H atoms were included in calculated positions and refined as riding on C, with C—H distances of 0.95 Å (aromatic H) and 0.99 Å (methylene H); Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Square planar metal complexes have important applications in catalytic and bioinorganic systems (Fiallo & Garnier-Suillerot, 1986; Grundemann et al., 2001; Trost et al., 1995); for example, platinum(II) and palladium(II) complexes exhibit antitumour activity (Hay, 1987). The present study details the structure of a palladium dichloride adduct of a heterocyclic thioether ligand. A number of metal complexes of such ligands have been reported (Berry & Bebout, 2005; Song et al., 2003; Zou et al., 2004). The ligand used in this study is 8-(2-benzothiazolylsulfanylmethyl)quinoline.
The title PdCl2 adduct, (I), is a mononuclear compound (Fig. 1), and the Pd exists in a square planar geometry that is made up of two Cl atoms and the two N atoms of the ligand. The quinoline and benzothiazole rings of the ligand are twisted by 96.5 (1)°; the Pd lies 0.0387 (1) Å from the square plane. The bond distances are within the ranges expected for square planar palladium (Al-Mandhary et al., 2003; Buffin et al., 2003; Kita et al., 2002). The molecular packing in (I) is influenced by weak intermolecular C—H···Cl hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2 and Table 2).
