Crystal structure of cis-diamminebis(nitrito-κN)platinum(II).

ABSTRACT: Single crystals of cis-[Pt(NO2)2(NH3)2], were obtained by means of hyper-saturation directly out of a plating electrolyte. The square-planar coordination environment of the divalent Pt(II) atom is formed by four N atoms belonging to two ammine and two monodentate nitrite ligands. The ligands adopt a cis configuration. The crystal structure contains stacks of close-packed mol-ecules which run parallel to [001]. There are nine crystallographically independent inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in a hydrogen-bonded hxl-type framework in which each mol-ecule serves as an eight-connected node. Four of the nine distinct hydrogen bonds connect complexes which belong to the same close-packed column parallel to [001]. In contrast to the previously reported crystal structure of the tran
