The title compound, [Pt(NO3)2(C2H6S)2], crystallizes in the P21/n space group (Z′ = 2), with pseudo-square-planar coordination geometry. The complex forms dimers with pseudosymmetry Ci arranged in columns along the b-axis direction, with Pt
Pt distances of 6.3056 (3) and 4.2382 (2) Å (at 150 K). Each column is surrounded by six other columns in a honeycomb rod-like packing. The coordination mode of the nitrate ligands is monodentate, with Pt—O—N angles ranging from ∼117 to ∼118° and a tilt between the nitrate ligands and the coordination planes in the range ∼63–70° (at 150 K). The coordination mode of the nitrate ligands is compared with that observed in reported Pt(NO3)2L2 complexes (where L is a ligand with a donor atom from group 15 or 16), all of which are monodentate, with an average Pt—O—N angle of 118 (2)° and a tilt in the range 90 ± 30° (with two exceptions, in which the nitrates are approximately in the coordination plane).
