Abstract

The title compound, [Pt(C6H6O4)(C12H8N2)]·2H2O, which crystallizes as two independent formula units, has the metal atom in a square-planar geometry defined by two O atoms of the chelating cyclo-butane-1,1-di-carboxyl-ate dianion and two N atoms of the chelating 1,10-phenanthroline mol-ecule (r.m.s. deviations of the PtO2N2 units = 0.026 and 0.026 Å). Adjacent complex and water mol-ecules are connected through inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C-H⋯O, C⋯O [shortest C⋯O distance = 3.140 (5) Å], π-π [shortest C⋯C distances = 3.234 (6) and 3.347 (6) Å] and Pt⋯π [shortest Pt⋯C distance = 3.358 (4) Å] inter-actions into a three-dimensional network.
