Neutron diffraction study of the structure of Zeise's salt, KPtCl3(C2H4).H2O

Abstract: The molecular structure of Zeise's salt, KPt(C2H4)Cl3-H20, has been studied by single-crystal neutron diffraction techniques.The PtCb moiety forms a nearly planar group with the platinum atom 0.03 A from the least-squares plane through the PtCb group. The Pt-Cl bond trans to the ethylene group [2.340 (2) A] is significantly longer than the cis Pt-Cl bonds [2.302 (2) and 2.303 (2) A], This difference, which is 19 times its standard deviation, is probably attributable to the trans-directing influence of the ethy… Show more

“…This geometry is found in a number of nine-coordinate species (Cotton & Wilkinson, 1972). The K...O distances compare well with those found in carboxylates (Wyckoff, 1969) and in hydrated compounds such as Zeise's salt (Love, Koetzle, Williams, Andrews & Bau, 1975). The K-Br contacts are in the normal range (Bokii & Kukina, 1965), but it is noteworthy that the interaction with the bridging Br atom is particularly short [3.27 (2) A]; this value corresponds to the sum of the radii of K ÷ and Br- (Cotton & Wilkinson, 1972).…”

“…The double bond slightly deviates (7°) from the direction perpendicular to the coordination plane. Bond lengths of the trichloroplatinate(II) moiety compare well with those in known Ptalkene complexes [2][3][4][5][6]. Thus, adistance of 2.025 Å between the metal atom and the center of the C6-C7 bond is found.…”

Such data allow observation of the structural trends found previously [102], including the non-planar geometry of the C2H4…”
