K2PtC4(NS)4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. K(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Pt(1), one N(2), two equivalent N(1), one S(2), and two equivalent S(1) atoms. Pt(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent K(1) and two equivalent N(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent C sites. In the first C site, C(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one N(1) and one S(1) atom. In the second C site, C(2) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one N(2) and one S(2) atom. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K(1) and one C(1) atom. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one K(1), one Pt(1), and one C(2) atom. There are two inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K(1) and one C(1) atom. In the second S site, S(2) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one K(1) and one C(2) atom.
