<i>cis</i>-Dichloridobis(<i>N</i>,<i>N</i>,<i>N</i>′,<i>N</i>′-tetramethylethane-1,2-diamine)platinum(II)

In the title complex, [PtCl2(C6H16N2)], the Pt(II) atom adopts a distorted cis-PtN2Cl2 square-planar coordination geometry. The five-membered chelate ring adopts a twisted conformation. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into (001) sheets.
