Abstract: High-spin states in <superscript>112</superscript>Pd were studied using prompt γ-ray spectroscopy with Gammasphere following heavy-ion-induced fission in the reaction <superscript>18</superscript>O + <superscript>208</superscript>Pb at 91 MeV. A new 8<superscript>+</superscript> level at 2638 keV was discovered with transitions connecting it to the yrast band and the quasi-gamma band. The three, now established, closely spaced 8<superscript>+</superscript> states indicate a mixing between the ground-state band, s-band, and quasi-gamma band. Several high-spin structures with likely negative parity have been extended to higher spin and it is proposed that they are based on the ν h<subscript>11/2</subscript>( g<subscript>7/2</subscript> d<subscript>5/2</subscript>) and ν h<subscript>11/2</subscript>( s<subscript>1/2</subscript> d<subscript>3/2</subscript>) configurations.
