In the title compound, [Pt(C17H19N4)Cl], the PtII cation is C,C′,C′′-chelated by the 1,1′-(5-methyl-1,3-phenylene)bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-imidazolylidene) anion and coordinated by a Cl− anion in a distorted square-planar coordination geometry. π–π stacking is observed between nearly parallel imidazole and benzene rings of adjacent molecules, the centroid–centroid distance being 3.802 (4) Å.

A mixture of 1,1'-[5-methyl-1,3-phenylene]bis[3,5-dimethyl-1H-imidazolium] diiodide (1 mmol) and 0.5 mmol silver oxide was stirred in a solution of 100 mL acetonitrile for 5 h at room temperature before 1equiv. Platinum chloride and 1eq. potassium carbonate were added. The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for an additional 24 h. Then the mixture was cooled to room temperature before 100 mL water was added. The resulting yellow precipitate was filtered off and washed with excessive methanol, water, and ether and dried under vacuum. The light yellowish product (in 20% yield) was obtained after thermal evaporation under high vacuum.1H NMR (500 MHz, δ in p.p.m., DMSO): 6.84 (s, 2H), 6.02 (s, 2H), 2.77 (s, 6H), 2.71(s, 6H), 2.35 (s, 3H).
Methyl H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.96 Å and torsion refined to fit the electron density with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C). Other H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.93 Å and refined in riding mode, Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Square planar Pt(II) complexes have attracted much attention due to their potential application in organic light-emitting diodes (Yang et al., 2008). Pt(N—C—N)X (where N—C—N,di(2-pyridinyl)benzene-based tridentate ligands, X=monoanionic ligands), are reported to have much higher quantum yield than Pt(C—N)(LX) (where C—N,2-pyridylphenylbased bidentate ligands, LX, monoanionic ancillary ligands) with similar structures (Wang et al., 2010), so designing and studying tridentate Pt complexes for application in blue and white phosphorescent OLEDs is a worthwhile undertaking (Fleetham et al., 2012). Replacing pyridinyl group with methyl-imidazolyl group could potentially weaken the intermolecular interaction, resultingin a blue-shifted excimer emission (Bakken et al.,2012). Here we report a new Pt(C—C—C)X type of Pt complex using methyl-imidazolyl as ligands, structure shown in Figure 1.
In the title molecule the Pt(1)-C(1)-C(9) plane is almost coplanar with the benzene ring and with the plane of C(9)-N(1)-N(2) ring, the dihedral angles being 1.57° and 2.00°, respectively. The other Pt1 ring (Pt(1)-C(1)-C(10)) is, however, is slightly different, makes dihedral angles of 1.28° and 2.00° with the benzene ring and the plane of C(10)-N(3)-N(4), respectively. The Pt(II) centre forms a distorted square planar and makes an angle of 1.95° between the Pt(1)-C(1)-C(10) ring and Pt(1)-C(1)-C(9) ring; the bond lengths of Pt(1)—C(9) and Pt(1)—C(10) are almost the same, being 2.040 (4) and 2.045 (4), respectively. The angles of C(1)-Pt(1)-C(9) and C(1)-Pt(1)-C(10) being 79.38 (19)° and 79.62 (19)°, are also very near.
