Abstract: | The syntheses and structures of two mixed‐ligand complexes of platinum(II) with deprotonated oxopurine bases and triphenylphosphine are reported, namely the theophyllinate complex cis‐bis(1,2,3,6‐tetrahydro‐1,3‐dimethylpurine‐2,6‐dionato‐κN7)bis(triphenylphosphine‐κP)platinum(II), Pt(C7H7N4O2)2(C18H15P)2], (I), and the theobrominate complex cis‐chloro(1,2,3,6‐tetrahydro‐3,7‐dimethylpurine‐2,6‐dionato‐κN1)bis(triphenylphosphine‐κP)platinum(II) ethanol hemisolvate, PtCl(C7H7N4O2)(C18H15P)2]·0.5C2H5OH, (II). In (I), the coordination geometry of Pt is square planar, formed by the two coordinating N atoms of the theophyllinate anions in a cis arrangement and two P atoms from the triphenylphosphine groups. In (II), there are two crystallographically independent molecules. They both exhibit a square‐planar coordination geometry around Pt involving one Cl atom, the coordinating N atom of the theobrominate anion and two P atoms from the triphenylphosphine groups. The two triphenylphosphine groups are arranged in a cis configuration in both structures. The heterocyclic rings are rotated with respect to the coordination plane of the metal by 82.99 (8) and 88.09 (8)° in complex (I), and by 85.91 (16) and 88.14 (18)° in complex (II). Both structures are stabilized by intramolecular stacking interactions involving the purine rings and the phenyl rings of adjacent triphenylphosphine moieties. |
