Conditions were identified for isolating isomerically pure trans-[PtII(4-Xpy)2Cl2] complexes bearing 4-substituted pyridines (4-Xpy) with diverse donor abilities even when the 4-Xpy is not volatile. Unusual 1H NMR observations in initial phases of the study were investigated and explained. For example, the very downfield H2/6 signals and high solubility in CDCl3 of [PtII(4-Xpy)4]Cl2 side products are attributed to strong {[PtII(4-Xpy)4]2+,2Cl−} ion pairs stabilized by multiple CH···Cl H-bonds, a feature found in solid-state structures.
