A series of simple [Pt(SCN)] salts with a variety of cations was synthesized and characterized using X-ray crystallography to determine factors that could induce platinophilic interactions between [Pt(SCN)] anions, including cation size and shape, charge, and ability to participate in hydrogen bonding. The salts [N(PPh)][Pt(SCN)], [AsPh][Pt(SCN)], and [Co(1,10-phenanthroline)][Pt(SCN)] feature bulky, noncoordinating cations where the [Pt(SCN)] anions are completely separated from each other, with no Pt-Pt interactions present. Salts containing the hydrogen-bonding cations [Co(NH)][Pt(SCN)] and [Co(en)][Pt(SCN)] (en = 1,2-ethylenediamine) display close Pt-Pt distances, with both compounds exhibiting platinophilic interactions with distances of 3.373(2) and 3.539(8) Å, respectively, the first reported platinophilic interactions with the [Pt(SCN)] unit. [Co(en)][Pt(SCN)] also presents intermolecular chalcogen S···S and Pt···S interactions, resulting in increased dimensionality while also assisting in assembling the platinophilic interaction. The compounds are emissive at 77 K in the solid state, exhibiting a d-d metal-centered transition regardless of whether or not any platinophilic interactions are present. Overall, hydrogen-bonding cations are most likely to promote close proximity of the Pt(II) metal centers and induce the formation of platinophilic interactions in [Pt(SCN)].

Designing and synthesizing one-dimensional porous Pt nanocrystals with unique optical, electrocatalytic, and theranostic properties are gaining lots of attention, especially to overcome the challenges of tumor recurrence and resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy. Herein, we represented an interesting report of a one-step and facile strategy for synthesizing multifunctional one-dimensional (1D) porous Pt nanoribbons (PtNRBs) with highly efficient therapeutic effects on cancer cells based on inherent electrocatalytic activity. The critical point in the formation of luminescent porous PtNRBs was the use of human hemoglobin (Hb) as a shape-regulating, stabilizing, and reducing agent with facet-specific domains on which fluorescent platinum nanoclusters at first are aggregated by aggregation-induced emission phenomena (AIE) and then crystallized into contact and penetration twins, as intermediate products, followed by shaping of the final luminescent porous ribbon nanomaterials, owing to oriented attachment association the Ostwald ripening mechanism.

Metallophilic interactions are increasingly recognized as playing an important role in molecular assembly, catalysis, and bio-imaging. However, present knowledge of these interactions is largely derived from solid-state structures and gas-phase computational studies rather than quantitative experimental measurements. Here, we have experimentally quantified the role of aurophilic (Au ⋅⋅⋅Au ), platinophilic (Pt ⋅⋅⋅Pt ), palladophilic (Pd ⋅⋅⋅Pd ), and nickelophilic (Ni ⋅⋅⋅Ni ) interactions in self-association and ligand-exchange processes.

Engineering hollow and porous platinum nanostructures using biomolecular templates is currently a significant focus for the enhancement of their facet-dependent optical, electronic, and electrocatalytic properties. However, remains a formidable challenge due to lack of appropriate biomolecules to have a structure-function relationship with nanocrystal facet development. Herein, human hemoglobin found to have facet-binding abilities that can control the morphology and optical properties of the platinum nanoclusters (Pt NCs) by regulation of the growth kinetics in alkaline media.

The tetracyanoplatinate ligand was employed in synthesizing the first neptunyl cyanoplatinate complexes. Results indicate in situ oxidation of Pt(II) by Np(V/VI) to form mixed-valent Pt-Pt stacked columnar chains linked by cation-cation interaction induced chains of Np(V) polyhedra into a two-dimensional sheet structure. The Pt-Pt stacking distances of 3.
