Abstract

Both cis- and trans-dichlorobis(diphenyl sulfide)platinum(II), [PtCl(2)(C(12)H(10)S)(2)], crystallize as mononuclear pseudo-square-planar complexes. In the cis compound, the Pt-Cl distances are 2.295 (2) and 2.319 (2) A, and the Pt-S distances are 2.280 (2) and 2.283 (2) A. In the trans compound, Pt is located on a centre of inversion and the Pt-Cl and Pt-S distances are 2.2786 (15) and 2.3002 (12) A, respectively.
