(5,6-Dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline)(2-{[2-(diphenylphosphanyl)benzylidene]amino}ethan-1-amine)platinum(II) dinitrate methanol disolvate
The title compound, [Pt(C<sub>14</sub>H<sub>12</sub>N<sub>2</sub>)(C<sub>21</sub>H<sub>21</sub>N<sub>2</sub>P)](NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>·2CH<sub>3</sub>OH, is a platinum(II) complex, which crystallizes in a monoclinic (<i>P</i>2<sub>1</sub>/<i>c</i>) space group. The complex exhibits a distorted square-planar geometry, which includes a monodentate 5,6-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline ligand and a tridentate 2-{[2-(di-phenyl-phosphan-yl)benzyl-idene]amino}-ethan-1-amine ligand. The structure reveals both intra- and inter-molecular π-stacking inter-actions between the phenanthroline and phosphine rings. Hydrogen bonding is observed between the complex ion, nitrate counter-ions and solvent mol-ecules.
