The crystal structure described by Pt(NCl)2 is Cubane-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two cis-diaminedichloroplatinum molecules. Pt(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one N(1), one N(2), one Cl(1), and one Cl(2) atom. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Pt(1) atom. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Pt(1) atom. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Pt(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Pt(1) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
