Potassium tetrachloroplatinate(II) is the chemical compound with the formula K2PtCl4. This reddish pink-colored salt is an important reagent for the preparation of other coordination complexes of platinum. It consists of potassium cations and the square planar dianion PtCl42-. Related salts are also known including K2PtCl4, which is brown-colored and soluble in alcohols, and quaternary ammonium salts, which are soluble in a broader range of organic solvents.

Preparation

Potassium tetrachloroplatinate is prepared by reduction of the corresponding hexachloroplatinate salt with hydrazine.cite journal | author = Keller, R. N.; Moeller, T. | title = Potassium Tetrachloroplatinate(II) | journal = Inorg. Synth. | year = 1963 | volume = 7 | pages = 247-250 | doi = 10.1002/9780470132333.ch79] K2PtCl6 is one of the salts that is most easily obtained from platinum ores. The complex is appreciably soluble only in water. Treatment with alcohols, especially in the presence of base, causes reduction to platinum metal. Conversion to organic salts, such as [PPN] 2PtCl4 are soluble in chlorocarbons. [cite journal | author = Elding, L. I.; Oskarsson, A.; Kukushkin, V.

Reactions

The chloride ligands on [PtCl4] 2- are displaced by many other ligands to afford derivatives::PtCl42− + 2 PPh3 → "cis"-PtCl2(PPh3)2 + 2 Cl−The anti-cancer drug Cisplatin can similarly be prepared::PtCl42− + 2 NH3 → "cis"-PtCl2(NH3)2 + 2 Cl−Dithiolates displace all four chloride ligands to give bis(dithiolene) complexes.
