Abstract The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Pd-2(C9H12NTe)(2)Cl-2]center dot 0.5CH(2)Cl(2), contains two half-molecules, each lying on a twofold rotation axis; each molecule is chiral and of the same enantiomer. This is only possible as the molecule has a hinged cis arrangement about the Pd2+ coordination spheres. For this hinged dimeric structure, the angles between the two coordination planes in each molecule are 21.59 (4) and 22.10 (4)degrees. This hinged cis arrangement also allows the two molecules to form pairs linked by secondary interactions between the Pd and Te atoms of an adjoining molecule, leading to a tetrameric overall structure. C-H center dot center dot center dot Cl interactions consolidate the crystal packing.
