Pyrazolat und Tetrazolat als Brückenliganden in [Pt(pz)2]3, [Pt(pz)2]∞ und [Pt(tz)2]∞ Die Kristallstruktur von [Pt(pz)2]3

Pyrazolat and Tetrazolat as Bridging Ligands in [Pt(pz)₂]₃, [Pt(pz)₂]_∞, and [Pt(tz)₂]_∞ Crystal Structure of [Pt(pz)₂]₃ . [Pt(pz)₂(Hpz)₂]₂ (Hpz = pyrazole) suspended in mesitylene decomposes at 185°C in a sealed tube to [Pt(pz)₂]₃ and [Pt(pz)₂]_∞. The reaction of K₂PtCl₄ with K(pz) under hydrothermal conditions at 150°C yields [Pt(pz)₂H₂O]_∞. [Pt(tz)₂ H₂O]_∞ (Htz = tetrazole) is obtained at 25°C from K₂PtCl₄ and Li(tz) in water. [Pt(pz)₂]₃ crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I4₁/a with a = 1694.9 pm, c = 3127.5 pm and Z = 16. It forms a ring structure with the symmetry D_3h. In the structure the Pt atoms are each bridged by two pyrazolato ligands. Short but nonbonding Pt? Pt distances range from 303.4 pm to 306.7 pm. The average Pt? N distance is 201 pm.
