title: Bis(acridine-κN)dibromidoplatinum(II).
abstract: In the title complex, [PtBr(2)(C(13)H(9)N)(2)], the Pt(II) ion is four-coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar environment by two N atoms from two acridine ligands and two Br atoms. The Pt atom is located on an inversion centre, and thus the asymmetric unit contains one half of the complex and the PtN(2)Br(2) unit is exactly planar. The dihedral angle between the PtN(2)Br(2) unit and acridine ligand is 78.98 (9)°. In the crystal structure, the complex mol-ecules are arranged in two distinct chains along [110] and [10]. In the chains, inter-molecular π-π inter-actions between the pyridyl and benzene rings connect the complex mol-ecules, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.631 (4) Å.
