The structure of the title compound, [PdCl(2)(C(21)H(21)O(3)P)(2)]center dot C(6)H(6), shows a square-planar geometry for the Pd(II) atom within a Cl(2)[P(PhOMe)(3)](2) ligand set. The crystal structure contains benzene as solvent. The Pd(II) atom sits on a centre of inversion and therefore the asymmetric unit contains the Pd(II) atom, one Cl atom, one tris(4-methoxyphenyl)phosphine ligand and one half of the benzene solvent molecule.
