Abstract: | In the title compound, Pd(C6H5)(C10H11O2S)(C18H15P)]·C4H8O, an isopropylthiobenzoate ligand is coordinated in a bidentate fashion to the central Pd atom through the O and S atoms. The square‐planar geometry of the Pd atom is completed by a phenyl ligand and a triphenylphosphine group but is distorted by the bidentate ligand, which forms a six‐membered chelate ring. This ring deviates strongly from planarity, which is illustrated by the plane through the phenyl portion of the chelate ring forming a dihedral angle of 62.3 (1)° with the coordination plane. |
