Crystal structure and Hirshfeld analysis of trans-diiodidobis[(methylsulfanyl)benzene-κS]platinum(II)

Abstract

The title complex, [PtI2(C7H8I2)2], represents a further example of a square-planar PtII–dithioether complex. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c. Additional Hirshfeld analyses indicate a C—H...π interaction along the [010] axis to be the most important packing factor.
