The title compound, [Pt(C4N2S2)2(NH3)2], represents an octahedral platinum(IV) complex with two trans-ammine and two mnt (mnt = 1,2-dicyanoethene-1,2-dithiolato) ligands. The Pt—N and Pt—S distances are consistent with those in other platinum(IV) complexes. As a result of a slight canting of the coordination of the mnt ligand to the platinum(IV) atom, the nitrile nitrogen atoms are positioned suitably to hydrogen-bond with adjacent ammines.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
