Violet crystals of ([Cu(pn){sub 2}]{sub 2}[Pt(CN){sub 4}])[Pt(CN){sub 4}]·2H{sub 2}O (1, pn=1,2-diaminopropane) and blue crystals of [Cu(pn)Pt(CN){sub 4}]{sub n}·nH{sub 2}O (2) were prepared under hydrothermal conditions and characterized using elemental analysis, IR and UV–vis spectroscopy and by X-ray crystal structure analysis. Different number of ν(C≡N) absorption bands of these two compounds reflects their different structures. An X-ray crystal structure analysis has shown that complex 1 is of ionic character and is formed from trinuclear [Cu(pn){sub 2}–Pt(CN){sub 4}–Cu(pn){sub 2}]{sup 2+} complex cation and discrete [Pt(CN){sub 4}]{sup 2–} anion together with two molecules of crystal water. On the other hand, complex 2 is of polymeric character and is formed by 2D networks of [Cu(pn)Pt(CN){sub 4}]{sub n} composition and completed by n molecules of crystal water. Magnetic measurements show the presence of a weak antiferromagnetic exchange interaction in complex 1 (Θ=–0.2 K), while the magnetic susceptibility of complex 2 is well described by the model of uniform S=1/2 spin chain with exchange interaction J/k{sub B}=–1.64 K. - Graphical abstract: Two complexes of different structural types from the system Cu(II) – 1,2–diaminopropane – [Pt(CN){sub 4}]{sup 2–} have been isolated. These were characterized by IR and UV–VIS spectroscopy, X–ray crystal structure analysis together with the magnetic measurements. On one hand ([Cu(pn){sub 2}]{sub 2}[Pt(CN){sub 4}])[Pt(CN){sub 4}]∙2H{sub 2}O is of ionic character and is formed from trinuclear complex cation and discrete anion together with two molecules of crystal water. On the other hand, [Cu(pn)Pt(CN){sub 4}]{sub n}∙nH{sub 2}O is of polymeric character and is formed by 2D networks of [Cu(pn)Pt(CN){sub 4}]{sub n} composition and completed by n molecules of crystal water. - Highlights: • Two complexes of different compositions from one system have been isolated. • First complex is of ionic character and second one is of polymeric character. • Polymeric complex described as a spin chain in contrast to its bilayer structure.
