Abstract: The title Pt^IV complex, [PtCl₄(C₁₆H₂₈N₄O₆)] or trans-[PtCl₄{NH=C(Et)ON=C(Me)C(=O)OEt}₂], possesses a crystallographically imposed centre of symmetry. The coordination environment of the metal centre is a slightly distorted octahedron. An intramolecular N-HN hydrogen bond between the imine H atom and the oxime N atom stabilizes the E configuration of the imine groups.
