Abstract

The title complex, [PtI₂(C₇H₈I₂)₂], represents a further example of a square-planar Pt^II-di-thio-ether complex. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c. Additional Hirshfeld analyses indicate a C-H⋯π inter-action along the [010] axis to be the most important packing factor.

Keywords: Hirshfeld surface analysis; crystal structure; dithioether.
