title: trans-Dibromidobis(triphenyl-phosphane)platinum(II) chloro-form monosolvate.
abstract: Both the platininum complex and the solvent mol-ecule of the title compound, [PtBr(2)(C(18)H(15)P)(2)]·CHCl(3), are located on a twofold rotation axis. The CH unit and the Cl atoms of the CHCl(3) mol-ecule are disordered over two equally occupied positions. The complex shows a trans square-planar geometry about the Pt atom.
