cis-Diiodido(N,N,N',N'-tetra-methyl-ethylenediamine-κ(2)N,N')palladium(II).

In the title complex, cis-[PdI(2)(C(6)H(16)N(2))], the Pd(II) atom lies on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis and is four-coordinated by the two N atoms of a chelating N,N,N',N'-tetra-methyl-ethylenediamine ligand [Pd-N = 2.125 (3) Å] and two I atoms [Pd-I = 2.5833 (4) Å], displaying a distorted square-planar geometry (r.m.s. deviation = 0.005 Å), imposed by the small bite of the chelating ligand [N-Pd-N angle = 84.68 (18)°].
