The title complex, [Pt(2)(CH(3))(4)(C(19)H(15)N(2)Si)(2)I][B(C(6)F(5))(4)]·0.66CH(2)Cl(2), resulted from an attempt to synthesize a stable five-coordinate platinum species via ligand abstraction of a six-coordinate platinum precursor. However, dimerization occurred after ligand abstraction, thereby yielding the compound described in this study. The cation is a dinuclear Pt(IV) organometallic complex, in which the metal centers are bridged by an I(-) anion. Both metal centers display a coordinati ...[more]
