A new class of polymeric complexes having Pt-Ag interactions: Crystal structure of |{[(PPh3)(C6F5)Pt(μ-Cl)]2Ag}(μ-Cl)2Ag(MeOH)|n

The reaction of (NBu4)[trans-PtCl2(C6F5)L] (L = PPh3, AsPh3) with AgClO4 (1:1) ratio leads to the polymeric complexes [PtAgCl2(C6F5)L]x (L = PPh3, AsPh3). The structure of complex |{[(PPh3)(C6F5)Pt(μ-Cl)]2Ag}(μ-Cl)2Ag(MeOH)|n is a chain polymer in which the silver atoms are in two different environments with or without Pt-Ag bond.
