Abstract

Synthesis and crystal structure of cis-dichloro[17-(cyclobutylmethyl)-3-methoxymorphinan-14-ol-N,O]palladium(II) methanol solvate is reported. The title complex crystallises in the triclinic P1 space group and is remarkable both by the number of independent molecules in the unit cell and the coordination sphere of palladium(II) formed by tertiary alcohol, tertiary amine and two chlorine atoms.
