cis‐μ‐Chloro‐μ‐p‐toluene­thiol­ato‐bis­[chloro­(triethyl­phos­phine)­palladium]

The title compound, cis‐[Pd₂Cl₃(C₇H₇S)(C₆H₁₅P)₂], has bridging chloro and aryl­thiol­ato groups, with the phosphines being trans to the bridging chloro group. The four‐membered metallocyclic Pd₂ClS ring is unexpectedly non‐planar, with a dihedral angle of 133.8 (1)° between the PdCl₂SP coordination planes. Principal dimensions include Pd—Cl_t 2.316 (3) and 2.329 (3), Pd—Cl_b 2.442 (3) and 2.432 (3), Pd—S 2.280 (3) and 2.282 (3), and Pd—P 2.233 (3) and 2.236 (3) Å (where Cl_t and Cl_b are terminal and bridging chloro ligands, respectively).
