Abstract

AbstractA molecular orbital study via the QR‐SCMEH‐MO (quasi‐relativistic self consistent modified extended Hűckel molecular orbital) method has been carried out on the unusual Pt 5‐ coordinated complex Pt (SnCl3). The computed UV–Visible spectral data and NMR parameters are found to be in good agreement with the reported experimental values. In addition, the magnetic susceptibility and PtSn bond energy have been calculated, although there are no reported experimental data with which to compare these results. PtSn bond energies of other Pt‐SnX3 (X = Cl, Br) systems and are compared with proposed bond energy trends based on NMR and observed bond distances. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
