Abstract
The PtII atom in the title compound, [PtCl2{(C6H4)(NH2)2}], lies on a twofold rotation axis and has a slightly distorted square-planar coordination environment defined by two N atoms of an 1,2-phenyl-enedi-amine ligand and two Cl- ions. In the crystal, the planar complex mol-ecules are stacked parallel to the c axis, resulting in a columnar structure. In a column, an infinite almost straight Pt⋯Pt chain is formed, suggesting weak metal-metal inter-actions [Pt⋯Pt = 3.3475 (8) Å]. The crystal packing is stabilized by a three-dimensional N-H⋯Cl hydrogen-bonding network between the amino groups and the Cl ligands of adjacent mol-ecules.
