Sc Pt Cl Cl
ScPtCl2 is alpha Po structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two ScPtCl2 clusters. Sc(1) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Cl(1) atoms. Both Sc(1)-Cl(1) bond lengths are 0.63 Å. Pt(1) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Cl(1) atoms. Both Pt(1)-Cl(1) bond lengths are 0.63 Å. Cl(1) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Sc(1) and one Pt(1) atom.
