Crystal structure of di-μ-amido-bis[diammineplatinum(II)] nitrate

Di-μ-amido-bis[diammineplatinum(II)] nitrate (1) was synthesized as a byproduct during preparation of tetraammineplatinum(II) nitrate. One possible pathway to produce 1 is that [(H₃N)₂Pt(μ- OH)₂Pt(NH₃)₂](NO₃)₂, a well-known complex forming on treatment of cis-Pt(NH₃)₂I₂ with AgNO₃, reacts with aqueous ammonia. The other possible pathway involves deprotonation of [Pt(NH₃)₄](NO₃)₂ to form monomeric Pt(NH₃)₃(NH₂)NO₃ followed by elimination of NH3. Crystals of 1 (from water) are monoclinic (C2/c) with a = 16.834(2) Å, b = 10.573(1) Å, c = 7.415(1) Å, β = 114.846(1)°, and Z = 4. The cationic portion consists of two symmetrical square-planar Pt centers with the inversion center at the midpoint of the Pt(1)???Pt(1A) vector. The Pt(II) ion is coordinated by four N atoms from two ammonia molecules and two bridging amido groups affording a slightly distorted square. The molecules are stacked in such a way that the planes of coordination squares turn out to be parallel to each other with a distance of 3.501 Å. Intermolecular Pt–H interaction between the μ-NH₂ hydrogens and the platinum(II) centers of the adjacent molecule are observed.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Bis(nitrate)bis(N-n-octyl-α-pyrrolidone)uranyl (II)

1 INTRODUCTION Tri-butyl phosphate (TBP) has been widely used for the extraction reagent in Th-U fuel to separate uranium from thorium. However di-butyl phosphate (DBP) and butyl phosphate (MBP), the radiolytic products of TBP, exhibit some coordinated ability to the fission elements, such as Zr and Nb. The physical and chemical properties of amides and caprolactam are similar to those of TBP, and they selectively extract U(VI) and Th(VI). The principal advantages of amides an…
