Palladium(II) bromide is an inorganic compound of palladium and bromine with the chemical formula PdBr2.

It is a commercially available, although less common than palladium(II) chloride, the usual entry point to palladium complexes.

As confirmed by X-ray crystallography, PdBr2 is a coordination polymer.

[1] It crystallises in the P21/c space group and the structure consists of wavy ribbons of edge-sharing PdBr4 coordination squares.

Palladium(II) bromide is insoluble in water but dissolves when heated in acetonitrile to give monomeric acetonitrile adducts:[3] PdBr2 exhibits many of the properties of palladium chloride and palladium acetate, giving catalysts active for carbonylations and cross-coupling reactions.
