Redetermination of the crystal structure of catena-poly[[[bis-(ethyl-enedi-amine)-platinum(II)]-μ-iodido-[bis-(ethyl-enedi-amine)-platinum(IV)]-μ-iodido] tetra-kis-(octane-1-sulfonate) dihydrate].

ABSTRACT: The structure of the title compound, which represents a mixed-valence platinum(II,IV) complex, {[Pt(II)Pt(IV)I2(C2H8N2)4][CH3(CH2)7SO3]4·2H2O} n , has been redetermined in a different space group. In contrast to the previously reported determination in the space group P21 cn [Matsushita & Taira (1999 ▸). Synth. Met. 102, 1787-1788], the current model was refined in the centrosymmetric space group Pmcn using the original diffraction data. The title compound has a linear chain structure composed of square-planar [Pt(en)2](2+) and elongated octa-hedral trans-[PtI2(en)2](2+) cations (en is ethyl-enedi-amine) stacked alternately, bridged by the I atoms, parallel to the c axis. Inorganic layers aligned parallel to the bc plane, composed of the Pt-complex columns, the -SO3 (-) part of the octane-
