%X The crystal structure of OsPt2(&#956;-CO)3(CO)2(PPh3)3 has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Crystals are triclinic, space group P&#299; with unit cell dimensions a 13.593(4), b 15.839(4), c 12.633(8) &#506;, &#945; 102.97(3), &#946; 108.18(2), &#947; 84.86(3)&#176; with Z2. The structure was refined by a full-matrix least-squares procedure on 5896 reflections [I &#8805; 2.5&#963;(I)] to final R 0.028 and Rw 0.034. A triphenylphosphine ligand binds each of the metal atoms disposed at the corners of a triangle. Each metal-metal bond is spanned by a bridging carbonyl group. The coordination about the osmium atom is completed by two terminal carbonyl groups.
