OtherAnions =Platinum(II) chloride Platinum bromide is the
chemical compound with the formula PtBr2. This dark green powder is a common precursor to otherplatinum -bromide compounds. Likepalladium chloride andpalladium bromide , it is a polymer that dissolves only in coordinating solvents or in the presence of donorligand s.Illustrative use
Transition metal carbene complex of platinum can be prepared by heating platinum bromide with the imidazolium salt NHC precursors, andsodium acetate indimethyl sulfoxide .
