Abstract
In the title salt, di--oxido-bis{2,6-bis[(dimethylamino)methyl]phenyl-C1 }- tellurium(IV) s[trichlorido(dimethyl sulfoxide-S)platinate(II)], (C24H38N4O2Te2)[PdCl3(C2H6OS)]2, which crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1, each Te atom is in a distorted five-coordinated TeO2N2C squarepyramidal geometry ( values of 0.026 and 0.001) with the C atoms of the phenyl rings occupying the apical positions. The phenyl rings in the [C24H38N4O2Te2] 2+ cation are in a cis arrangement to enable this species to participate in TeCl cation–anion interactions. There are also C—HO interactions involving the
dimethyl sulfoxide ligands and numerous cation–anion and anion–anion C— HCl interactions, which link the ions into a complex three-dimensional array
