Chlorido{5-chloro-2-[2-(methyl­sulfanyl)phenyl­diazen­yl]phenyl}­platinum(II)

The title compound, [Pt(C(13)H(10)ClN(2)S)Cl], contains a Pt atom tetra­coordinated by a benzene C, a diazene N, a Cl and an S atom in an approximately square-planar geometry. The mol­ecules dimerize through a nonbonded S⋯S inter­action [S⋯S = 3.523 (18) Å]. There are no hydrogen bonds and the crystal packing is stabilized by four inter­molecular π–π inter­actions; the centroid–centroid distances are 3.804 (3), 3.638 (3), 3.804 (3) and 3.638 (3) Å, and the corresponding perpendicular distances are 3.369, 3.448, 3.406 and 3.466 Å.
