Abstract:
In the centrosymmetric mol-ecular structure of the title compound [Pt(2)(C(6)H(14)P)(2)H(2)(C(9)H(21)P)(2)], each Pt(II) atom is bound on one side to a phosphane ligand (PiPr(3)) and a hydrido ligand. On the other side, it is bound to two phosphanide ligands (μ-PiPr(2)), which engage a bridging position between the two Pt(II) atoms, forming a distorted square-planar structure motif. The Pt⋯Pt distance is 3.6755 (2) Å. A comparable mol-ecular structure was observed for bis-(μ-di-tert-butyl-phosphanido)bis-[hydrido(triethyl-phosphane)platinum(II)] [Itazaki et al. (2004 ▶). Organometallics, 23, 1610-1621].

Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...
