PtC8(SF3)4 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two PtC8(SF3)4 clusters. Pt(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to two equivalent S(1) and two equivalent S(2) atoms. There are four inequivalent C sites. In the first C site, C(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one C(2), one C(3), and one S(1) atom. In the second C site, C(2) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one C(1), one C(4), and one S(2) atom. In the third C site, C(3) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one C(1), one F(1), one F(2), and one F(3) atom. In the fourth C site, C(4) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one C(2), one F(4), one F(5), and one F(6) atom. There are two inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(1) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Pt(1) and one C(1) atom. In the second S site, S(2) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Pt(1) and one C(2) atom. There are six inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(3) atom. In the second F site, F(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(4) atom. In the third F site, F(5) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(4) atom. In the fourth F site, F(6) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(4) atom. In the fifth F site, F(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(3) atom. In the sixth F site, F(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(3) atom.
