A. M. Z. Slawin, P. G. Waddell and J. D. Woollins

Abstract: Both the platininum complex and the solvent molecule of the title compound, [PtBr₂(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂]·CHCl₃, are located on a twofold rotation axis. The CH unit and the Cl atoms of the CHCl₃ molecule are disordered over two equally occupied positions. The complex shows a trans square-planar geometry about the Pt atom.
