Abstract
PtMes2(dppz).toluene (Mes = mesityl) is monoclinic, space group P21/c, Z = 4, a 14.3551(14), b 15.8319(14), c 15.369(2) \AA, b 96.748(6)°, dc = 1.547, R = 0.0596, Fw = 0.1469 for 3755 reflections. The (dppz)PtC1Mes2 part of the mol. is planar, the mesityl substituents adopting dihedral angles of 70.3 and 85.5° with that plane. The photoemissive and reversibly reducible and oxidizable complex mols. form pairs in the crystal with the planar phenazine p tails overlapping in graphite-like fashion at 3.427 \AA distance. The results are discussed in comparison with a recently reported structure of PtCl2(dppz). on SciFinder(R)
