Mr. Silva et al., A NEW ALLOTROPIC FORM OF TRANS-DICHLOROBIS(CREATININE)PLATINUM(II) DIHYDRATE, Acta crystallographica. Section C, Crystal structure communications, 52, 1996, pp. 2450-2452
The synthesis and crystal structure of a new allotropic form (violet c
rystals) of ihydro-4H-imidazol-4-one-N-1)dichloroplatinum(II), [PtCl2(
C4H7N3O)(2)].2H(2)O, are reported. This form differs from the two crys
tal forms (yellow and green crystals) studied previously in its interm
olecular hydrogen-bonding scheme. The crystal structure of the new for
m is isomorphous with that reported for the corresponding palladium co
mplex, trans-[PdCl2(C4H7N3O)(2)].2H(2)O.
