	Bis(triphenylphosphine)platinum chloride is a metal phosphine complex with the formula PtCl[P(CH)]. Cis- and trans isomers are known. The cis isomer is a white crystalline powder, while the trans isomer is yellow. Both isomers are square planar about the central platinum atom. The cis isomer is used primarily as a reagent for the synthesis of other platinum compounds.
