Tetrachlorido(4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine-κ²N,N′)platinum(IV)

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [PtCl4(C12H12N2)], contains one half-mol­ecule; a twofold rotation axis passes through the Pt atom and the mid-point of the C—C bond linking the two rings. The PtIV atom is six-coordinated in an octa­hedral configuration by two N atoms of the 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine ligand and four terminal Cl atoms. In the crystal structure, there are weak π–π inter­actions between pyridine rings, with a centroid–centroid distance of 4.365 (3) Å.

“…Exploring functions and properties of materials for biomedical related applications are very important due to several reasons from drug design up to other types of therapies and treatments [1][2][3][4]. In this case, both investigating available compounds and innovating novel compounds are very important to be considered [5][6][7][8]. Indeed, varieties of diseases, infections, and accidents always make the topic of such biomedical explorations very important regarding the maintenance of human health system [9-12].…”

“…It is worth to mention that terms of exploring novel medications are very important for the reasons of dealing with several known and unknown diseases, in which several protocols have been always developing to overcome the medical issues [28][29][30]. Not only for the drug related issues, but also several other biomedical applications have been developed during the recent years [31][32][33].…”
