Description
Summary:The title compound, [Pt(C6H6O4)(C12H8N2)]·2H2O, which crystallizes as two independent formula units, has the metal atom in a square-planar geometry defined by two O atoms of the chelating cyclobutane-1,1-dicarboxylate dianion and two N atoms of the chelating 1,10-phenanthroline molecule (r.m.s. deviations of the PtO2N2 units = 0.026 and 0.026 Å). Adjacent complex and water molecules are connected through intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds and C—H...O, C...O [shortest C...O distance = 3.140 (5) Å], π–π [shortest C...C distances = 3.234 (6) and 3.347 (6) Å] and Pt...π [shortest Pt...C distance = 3.358 (4) Å] interactions into a three-dimensional network.
