Nitro-nitrito isomerization is a well-known photoreaction exhibited by metal complexes in the solid state. We previously reported that the isomerization ratio in the salts of a cationic platinum(II) nitrito complex [Pt(L)(NO2)] + (L = N 1 -(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl)-N 2 ,N 2 -dimethyl-N 1pentyl-1,2-ethanediamine) is correlated to the reaction cavity surrounding the nitrito ligand. In this study, to further elucidate the effect of the packing structure on the reaction, we investigated the photoisomerization of the same cation in different packing environments. The salt of the cationic complex with the PF6 anion gave three polymorphs (-, -, and -forms) and a pseudopolymorph (form, acetonitrile solvate), of which the -form is formed from the -form upon desorption of acetonitrile. These polymorphs exhibited 36-100% conversions at 180 K depending on the reaction cavity. In addition, the -form exhibited a space group change upon photoirradiation. The salt with the (CF3SO2)2N − anion was an ionic liquid, taking both the crystalline and glassy states at low temperature.The crystalline state exhibited approximately 30% conversion at 100 K, whereas photoisomerization was not observed in its glassy state as investigated by IR spectroscopy. In these salts, less densely packed crystals deteriorated upon photoirradiation.Molecular structures, IR spectra, bond lengths and angles, and crystallographic parameters (PDF).
