Bis[diamminesilver(I)] dioxalatoplatinate(II)

G.-Q. Wu and W.-Z. Chen

Abstract: In the title compound, [Ag(NH₃)₂]₂[Pt(C₂O₄)₂], the Ag atom is coordinated in an almost linear configuration by two N atoms from two ammine ligands. The Pt atom, located on an inversion centre, is tetracoordinated by four O atoms from two oxalate ions. The silver cations and platinum-centred anions are each stacked separately in a columnar fashion along the a axis. In the crystal structure, the cations and anions are further linked together through N-HO hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional structure.
