Dichloridobis[3-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-2-methyl-5-(piperidin-1-yl)-2,3-di-hydro-1,2,4-oxa-diazole-κN (4)]platinum(II).

In title compound, [PtCl2(C15H21N3O2)2], the Pt(II) cation, located on an inversion center, is coordinated by two Cl(-) anions and two 3-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-2-methyl-5-(piperidin-1-yl)-2,3-di-hydro-1,2,4-oxa-diazole ligands in a distorted Cl2N2 square-planar geometry. The di-hydro-oxa-diazole and piperidine rings display envelope (with the non-coordinating N atom as the flap atom) and chair conformations, respectively. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into supra-molecular chains running along the b axis. The piperidine ring is disordered over two positions with the occupancy ratio of 0.528 (4):0.472 (4).
