    [1,2-Bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane]-diiodidoplatinum(II) dichloromethane disolvate
    (2007) Sivaramakrishna, Akella; Su, Hong; Moss, John R
    In the title compound, [PtI2(C26H24P2)]·2CH2Cl2, the PtI2(dppe) [dppe = 1,2-bis­(diphenyl­phosphino)ethane] mol­ecules possess twofold rotation symmetry. The Pt coordination displays a square-planar arrangement, with the sum of the angles around the Pt atom being 360.01 (2)°. The Pt-I distance is 2.6484 (5) Å. In the crystal structure, inter­molecular C-H...I contacts link the PtI2(dppe) mol­ecules into rows along the c axis, with a C...I distance of 3.873 (5) Å.

    trans-Bromohydridobis-(triphenylphosphine)platinum(II)
    (2007) Sivaramakrishna, Akella; Su, Hong; Moss, John R
    The title compound, [PtBrH(C18H15P)2], has a square-planar environment around the Pt atom, with the hydride and bromide ligands being exactly collinear with Pt since they all lie on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis, and with mutually trans triphenyl­phosphine ligands with a P-Pt-P bond angle that is slightly bent towards the hydride [P-Pt-P = 170.81 (5)°]. The Pt-H distance (1.610 Å) is in good agreement with those found in structures determined by neutron diffraction.
