3-bromido-tetrakis[trimethylplatinum(IV)]Abstract: The title complex, [Pt4Br4(CH3)12], the tetramer of trimethylplatinum(IV) bromide, reveals a distorted cubane-like structure and is disposed about a crystallographic mirror plane passing through two Pt atoms, two Br atoms and two methyl groups parallel to the ac plane. The tetrameric complex displays pseudo-cubic molecular symmetry, 
3m. The coordination geometry around each Pt centre is distorted octahedral. The tetrameric units in the crystal structure are packed by hydrophobic interactions or van der Waals contacts.
