title: Chlorido(dimethyl sulfoxide-κS)[2-(2-pyrid-yl)phenyl-κN,C]platinum(II).
abstract: In the title compound, [Pt(C(11)H(8)N)Cl(C(2)H(6)OS)], the S atom of dimethyl sulfoxide is trans to the pyridyl N atom [Pt-S = 2.2181 (11) Å] and the chlorido ligand is trans to the carbon donor of 2-(2-pyrid-yl)phenyl [Pt-Cl = 2.4202 (10) Å]. The [2-(2-pyrid-yl)phen-yl]platinum(II) unit forms a one-dimensional stack along the c axis with two independent inter-planar separations of 3.44 (9) and 3.50 (2) Å.
