Intramolecular hydrogen‐bond‐directed coordination: trans‐bis(N‐benzoyl‐N′‐propyl­thio­urea‐κS)di­iodo­platinum(II) and trans‐bis(N‐benzoyl‐N′‐propyl­thio­urea‐κS)di­bromo­platinum(II)

In the title compounds, trans‐PtI₂(C₁₁H₁₄N₂OS)₂], (I), and trans‐PtBr₂(C₁₁H₁₄N₂OS)₂], (II), respectively, intramolecular N—H⋯O (propyl­amine side) hydrogen bonds in the potentially bidentate thio­urea ligands lock the carbonyl O atoms into six‐membered rings, determining the S‐mono­dentate mode of coordination of these ligands. Intramolecular N—H⋯X (X is I or Br) interactions (benzoyl­amine side) lead to slight distortions of the Pt^II coordination spheres from ideal square‐planar geometry. The Pt^II ion is located on an inversion centre in both structures.
