Crystal structure of poly[[di-aqua-tetra-μ₂-cyanido-platinum(II)iron(II)] methanol 4/3-solvate]: a three-dimensional Hofmann clathrate analogue.

ABSTRACT: In the title polymeric coordination compound, {[FePt(CN)₄(H₂O)₂]·1.33CH₃OH} _n , the Fe^II cation (site symmetry 4/mm.m) is coordinated by the N atoms of four cyanide anions (CN^-) and the O atoms of two water mol-ecules, forming a nearly regular [FeN₄O₂] octa-hedron. According the Fe-N and Fe-O bond lengths, the Fe^II atom is in the high-spin state. The cyanide anions act in a bridging manner to connect the Fe^II and Pt^II atoms. The [Pt(CN)₄]^2- moieties (Pt with site symmetry 4/mm.m) have a perfect square-planar shape. The latter anion is located perpendicular to the FeN₄ plane, thus ensuring the creation of a
