Transplatin
Chemical compound / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
trans-Dichlorodiammineplatinum(II) is the trans isomer of the coordination complex with the formula trans-PtCl2(NH3)2, sometimes called transplatin.[1] It is a yellow solid with low solubility in water but good solubility in DMF. The existence of two isomers of PtCl2(NH3)2 led Alfred Werner to propose square planar molecular geometry.[2] It belongs to the molecular symmetry point group D2h.
