Abstract: The crystal structure of the title complex, [PtCl(C₃₆H₃₇P₃)]ClO₄, at 145  K contains the trimethylene-bridged triphosphine chelate ligand Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh(CH₂)₃PPh₂ coordinated in a tridentate manner to the Pt^II atom. The coordination geometry about Pt is distorted from square planar as a consequence of the geometrical constraints of the chelating ligand.
