The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [PdI(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))], contains one half of the formula unit. The Pd(2+) ion is located on a twofold rotation axis and is four-coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar environment by two N atoms of the chelating 2,2'-bipyridine ligand and two iodide ions. The compound displays inter-molecular π-π inter-actions between the pyridine rings of the ligand, the shortest centroid-centroid distance being 4.220 (4) Å. ...[more]
