Tetrachlor-platinites, M2PtCl4
Salts of tetrachlor-platinous acid are known as tetrachlor-platinites, and have the general formula M2PtCl4.
They are both stable and well known. They may be prepared in a variety of ways, chief amongst which are:
The clear solution containing the soluble chlor-platinite is decanted or filtered free from the insoluble barium sulphate, and concentrated. The chlor-platinites are mostly soluble salts yielding red solutions readily distinguished from solutions of the chlor-platinates, which are yellow. The silver, lead, mercury, and thallium salts are almost insoluble in water. Chlor-platinites are oxidised by chlorine and by hypochlorites to chlor-platinates, whilst nascent hydrogen reduces them in aqueous solution with separation of metallic platinum. When their solutions are warmed and a current of hydrogen sulphide is passed through, platinous sulphide is obtained as a black precipitate; whilst sulphur dioxide under like conditions effects their decolorisation, platinosulphites being produced. With ammonia, ammino derivatives are obtained. |
