The conditions for obtaining single crystals of Per2Pt(mnt)2 via an electrochemical process are described. The occurrence of a lower conductivity β-phase cannot be avoided. Thermal dependence of resistivity and thermopower of β-Per2Pt(mnt)2 is reported and results discussed in comparison with previously known β-phase members (M=Cu and Ni) of the Per2M(mnt)2 family.
