Abstract
In the title compound, [K2PtCl4(C12H24O6)2], the PtII ion is located on an inversion centre and is coordinated by four Cl atoms, forming a square-planar geometry. The KI ion is coordinated by six O atoms of the crown ether and two bridging Cl atoms. The KI ion is displaced by 0.756 (2) Å from the mean plane of the six O atoms of the crown ether. The molecules are connected by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming an infinite two-dimensional network parallel to the (10) plane. Intra- and intermolecular C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds are also observed.
