Synthesis, Crystal Structures, and Vibrational Spectra of trans ‐Pt(N₃)₄X₂]^2–, X = Cl, Br, I By oxidative addition to (n‐Bu₄N)₂Pt(N₃)₄] with the elemental halogens in dichloromethane trans‐(n‐Bu₄N)₂Pt(N₃)₄X₂], X = Cl, Br, I are formed. X‐ray structure determinations on single crystals of trans‐(Ph₄P)₂Pt(N₃)₄Cl₂] (triclinic, space group P1, a = 10.352(1), b = 10.438(2), c = 11.890(2) Å, α = 91.808(12), β = 100.676(12), γ = 113.980(10)°, Z = 1), trans‐(Ph₄P)₂Pt(N₃)₄Br₂] (triclinic, space group P1, a = 10.336(1), b = 10.536(1), c = 12.119(2) Å, α = 91.762(12), β = 101.135(12), γ = 112.867(10)°, Z = 1) and trans‐(Ph₄P)₂Pt(N₃)₄I₂] (triclinic, space group P1, a = 10.186(2), b = 10.506(2), c = 12.219(2) Å, α = 91.847(16), β = 101.385(14), γ = 111.965(18)°, Z = 1) reveal, that the compounds crystallize isotypically with octahedral centrosymmetric complex anions. The bond lengths are Pt–Cl = 2.324, Pt–Br = 2.472, Pt–I = 2.619 and Pt–N = 2.052–2.122 Å. The approximate linear Azidoligands with N^α–N^β–N^γ‐angles = 172.1–176.8° are bonded with Pt–N^α–N^β‐angles = 116.2–121.9°. In the vibrational spectra the platinum halogen stretching vibrations of trans‐(n‐Bu₄N)₂Pt(N₃)₄X₂] are observed in the range of 327–337 (X = Cl), at 202 (Br) and in the range of 145–165 cm^–1 (I), respectively. The platinum azide stretching modes of the three complex salts are in the range of 401–421 cm^–1. Based on the molecular parameters of the X‐ray determinations the IR and Raman spectra are assigned by normal coordinate analysis. The valence force constants are f_d(PtCl) = 1.90, f_d(PtBr) = 1.64, f_d(PtI) = 1.22, f_d(PtN^α) = 2.20–2.27 and f_d(N^αN^β, N^βN^γ) = 12.44 mdyn/Å.
