<abstract abstract-type="main"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>A series of <italic>N</italic>‐heterocyclic carbene–PdCl₂–imidazole [NHC–Pd(II)–Im] complexes were synthesized and the structure of most of them was unambiguously determined by X‐ray single‐crystal diffraction.
