80. 2 compounds with M = Mo, W, Ru, Re, Os, Ir, Pd, and Pt. (see Cotton, F. A.; Murillo, C. A.; Wang, X.; Wilkinson, C. C. Inorg. Chim Acta 2003, 351, 191 and references therein). In those compounds, the M-Cl distances vary from 2.47 to 3.17 Å. The short distance of 2.47 Å (for the Pd compound) seems to indicate that the Cl atoms can approach the metal atoms without problems.
