cis‐Di­phenyl­bis(1,3,5‐tri­aza‐7‐phospha­adamantane‐κP)platinum(II)

The structure of the title compound, Pt(C₆H₅)₂(C₆H₁₂N₃P)₂] or Pt(Ph)₂(PTA)₂] (where Ph is phenyl and PTA is 1,3,5‐tri­aza‐7‐phosphaadamantane), is discussed. Selected geom­etric parameters are: Pt—P = 2.2888 (16) and 2.2944 (17) Å, Pt—C = 2.052 (5) and 2.064 (6) Å, C—Pt—C = 84.6 (2)° and P—Pt—P = 99.28 (6)°. The effective cone angle for the PTA ligands was calculated as 113°.
