Structure of Trimethylplatinum(IV) with a Tripod Ligand

Abstract

The trimethylplatinum (IV) completes octahedral coordination by bonding to three oxygen atoms of the tripod shaped methoxy Klaeui ligand. There are two independent molecule has normal bond distances and angles; Pt-c = 2. 001(11) Angstrom and Pt-O = 2.73(5) Angstrom. Many distances in the disordered molecule are uncertain, particularly in the areas of the C sup p carbon atom s and the CH3 groups, which overlap in the two orientations.
