%X An improved synthesis of the ligand ethane-1,2-diamine-N,N&#8242;-bis(methylenephosphonic) acid (H4edbmp) is described along with its crystal structure. H4edbmp crystallizes in the monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a 7.705(2), b 10.284(2), c 7.999(2) &#197;, &#946; 110.42(2)&#x02DA;, and its crystal structure was refined to an R value of 0.039 (on 980F). The bis(ligand) platinum(II) complex, &#91;Pt(H3edbmp)2&#93;&#183;2H2O, was prepared and its crystal structure determined. &#91;Pt(H3edbmp)2&#93;&#183;2H2O crystallizes in the triclinic, space group P1&#8211;, with a 8.4499(3), b 8.7886(3), c 9.6736(4) &#197;, &#945; 89.885(1), &#946; 65.243(1), &#947; 61.866(1)&#x02DA;, and the structure was refined to an R value of 0.018 (on 2569F).
