The structure of [PtI₂-(C₄ H₅N₃O₂)₂] has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystals are triclinic: P1, a = 15.640(3), b = 12.617(2), c = 6.701(1) , = 102.77(5), = 101.15(5), = 100.71(5)°, V = 1228.6(3) ³, Z = 3, D_x = 2.851(6) Mg m^–3, (MoK ) = 0.71069 , = 12.85 mm^–, F(000) = 948, final R = 0.038 for 2859 reflections. The complex consists of monomeric PtI₂(1-methyl-5-nitroimidazole)₂ units. The coordination geometry is square-planar. The two 1-methyl-5-nitroimidazole ligands are trans coordinated to platinum.     

Coordination chemistry of alkali and alkaline earth cations: Synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of cesium (picrate) (benzo-15-crown-5) Cs+C6H2N3O 7 − (C14H20O5)

Crystals of the Cs⁺ Pic^– (B15C5) complex (Pic=picrate; B15C5=benzo-15-crown-5) (M _r =629.3) are yellow prisms which belong to the triclinic space groupP witha=7.377(4),b=11.372(2),c=14.806(2) , =90.31(1), =91.06(2), =108.32(2)⁰,Z=2,D _x =1.77, andD _m =1.77 g cm^–3. FinalR=0.055 for 3575 observed reflections out of a total of 4004 measured reflections. Cesium forms a 1:1 anion paired complex with B15C5 like sodium rather than a charge separated sandwich structure as found for potassium and expected for cesium in view of the ion-cavity radius concept. The Cs cation is 9-coordinate involving the five crown oxygens (Cs...O, 3.00(1) to 3.24(1) ), the phenoxide (Cs...O^–, 3.03(1) ) and anortho nitro group oxygen (Cs...O, 3.01(1) ) of the picrate counteranion and, uniquely, with two additional oxygens (Cs...O, 3.17(1) and 3.40(1) ) from apara nitro group of the picrate belonging to the adjacent molecule in the lattice. The Cs⁺ ion lies 2.07 out of the mean plane formed by the crown oxygens. This system provides the first structural evidence that the interaction stoichiometry of an alkali cation with a cyclic multidentate ligand is not a function of the ion and cavity size alone but also of its Lewis acid strength as modified by the charge neutralizing anion.
