title: cis-Dichloridobis(N,N,N',N'-tetra-methyl-ethane-1,2-diamine)-platinum(II).
abstract: In the title complex, [PtCl2(C6H16N2)], the Pt(II) atom adopts a distorted cis-PtN2Cl2 square-planar coordination geometry. The five-membered chelate ring adopts a twisted conformation. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into (001) sheets.
