In the title complex, [Pt(NCS)(2)(C(8)H(6)N(4))], the Pt(II) ion is four-coordinated in a distorted square-planar environment defined by two pyrimidine N atoms derived from a chelating 2,2'-bipyrimidine (bpym) ligand and two mutually cis N atoms from two SCN(-) anions. The thio-cyanate ligands are almost linear, displaying N-C-S bond angles of 178.6 (11) and 173.7 (11)°, and the N atoms are slightly bent coordinated to the Pt atom with Pt-N-C bond angles of 172.7 (9) and 160.4 (10)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are held together by C-H⋯S hydrogen bonds. Intra-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds are also observed.
