Abstract
In the title complex, [Pt(NCS)2(C10H9N3)], the PtII ion is four-coordinated in a distorted square-planar environment by the two pyridine N atoms of the chelating di-2-pyridylamine (dpa) ligand and two mutually cis S atoms from two linear thiocyanate anions. The dpa ligand is not planar, the dihedral angle between the pyridine rings being 30.8 (4)°. In the crystal, the complex molecules are stacked in columns along the a axis and are connected by intermolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming supramolecular chains along the b axis.

R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger
Summary
