Hydrogen-bonded networks from novel platinum(ii) dimers

Abstract

The structures of the complexes: cis-dichloro[(2-(phenylselanyl)ethanamine]platinum(II) (1) and cis-dichloro[(2-(benzylyselanyl)ethanamine]platinum(II) (2) are reported. Self-complementary N–H⋯Cl interactions result in the generation of dimers. Through this dimerization the Pt centres are brought within 3.4905(5) Å in the case of 1 and 3.6142(6) Å in the case of 2. When each of the dimers is viewed along the Pt–Pt vector the Pt to donor atom bonds are eclipsed. Through further N–H⋯Cl interactions, 1 forms a chain while 2 forms a sheet.
