Abstract
In the title complex, [Pd(C16H16NO2)2]�CHCl3, the PdII cation
lies on an inversion center. One Cl atom of the CHCl3 solvent
molecule lies on a twofold axis and the C—H group is
disordered with equal occupancies about this axis with the
other Cl atom in a general position with full occupancy. The
PdII cation is four-coordinate and adopts a square-planar
geometry via coordination of the imine N and phenolic O
atoms of the two bidentate Schiff base anions. The N and O
atoms of these ligands are mutually trans. The plane of the
benzene ring makes a dihedral angle of 73.52 (10)� with that of
the methoxyphenolate ring. In the crystal, molecules of the
PdII complex are arranged into sheets parallel to the ac plane,
and the chloroform solvent molecules are located in the
interstitial areas between the complex molecules. Weak
intermolecular C—H� � �O and C—H� � �� interactions stabilize
the packing.
