The new diphosphineligand 2,6-bis(2-((diphenylphosphino)methyl)phenyl)benzene (1) has been prepared for potential use as a terdentate pincer-type ligand. Upon examination of the coordination chemistry with representative palladium and nickel centers, however, it was discovered that it acts as a bidentate trans-spanningligand upon coordination to form trans-[(1)PdCl2] (2) and trans-[(1)NiCl2] (3)
