There are four inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Rb(1), one Rb(2), and one C(1) atom. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Rb(2) and one C(2) atom. In the third N site, N(3) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Rb(2) and one C(3) atom. In the fourth N site, N(4) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three equivalent Rb(1) and one C(4) atom. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Rb(1), one Rb(2), and one Pt(1) atom.
