Bromido[(1,2,5,6-η)-cycloocta-1,5-diene]methylplatinum(II)

In the title complex, [PtBr(CH3)(C8H12)], the PtII ion is in a distorted square-planar environment defined by the Br and methyl C atoms and the mid-points of the two π-coordinated double bonds of cycloocta-1,5-diene. As a result of the different trans influences of the Br atom and the m...

Description
Summary:In the title complex, [PtBr(CH3)(C8H12)], the PtII ion is in a distorted square-planar environment defined by the Br and methyl C atoms and the mid-points of the two π-coordinated double bonds of cycloocta-1,5-diene. As a result of the different trans influences of the Br atom and the methyl group, the Pt—C bonds trans to the methyl group [2.262 (11) and 2.261 (10) Å] are longer than those trans to the Br atom [2.118 (8) and 2.138 (9) Å].
