Abstract
In the mononuclear title complex, [Pt(CH3)Cl(C25H23N2P)], the N-benzyl-N-(diphenylphosphanylmethyl)pyridin-2-amine functions as a bidentate ligand with the pyridyl N atom and the phosphine P atom chelating the PtII ion, forming a six-membered metallocycle. The PtII atom adopts a square-planar coordination geometry with one methyl group and one chloride ligand bonding to the metal center in a cis relationship. C—H⋯π and C—H⋯Cl interactions help to consolidate the packing.

The clear solution was filtered and the solvent was concentrated to a small volume and diethyl ether was subsequently added to give 0.309 g (82%) of the title complex as a white solid, crystals of which were obtained after four days by recrystallization from CH2Cl2/n-hexane, yield: 0.230 g
The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry
