The synthesis and crystal structure of a new partially oxidized tetracyanoplatinate complex containing the triatomic bifluoride ion (FHF)/sup -/ is reported. This complex has the shortest Pt--Pt distance yet observed for any POTCP complex. X-ray data and thermal gravimetric analysis of the Rb salt and its Cs analog showed no evidence for the presence of water; therefore the complexes are believed to be the first anhydrous POTCP complexes.
