Abstract
cis- and trans-[Pt(pm)2X2] where pm = pyrimidine and X = Cl, Br, have been synthesized. The cis-compounds were isolated from the reaction of K2PtCl4 and pm in water, while the trans-isomers were obtained by isomerization of cis-[Pt(pm2X2] in DMF in the presence of pm.The crystal structures of the two compounds trans-[Pt(pm)2X2] have been determined by X-ray diffraction. The two compounds (X = Br and Cl) are isostructural. The crystals belong to the monoclinic P21/c space group. The cell parameters are a = 4.787(3), b = 14.257(7), c = 8.503(3) Å and β = 99.33(4)° when X = Cl and a = 4.826(3), b = 14.822(5), c = 8.516(5) Å and β = 101.26(4)° when X = Br. The platinum atom is located on a centre of symmetry at the origin and Z = 2. The residual factors are R = 0.029 and Rw = 0.036 (X = Cl) and R = 0.036 and Rw = 0.035 (X = Br).
