Description

Recommended products
Potassium hexachloroplatinate

Application
The precipitation of this compound from solutions of hexachloroplatinic acid was formerly used for the determination of potassium by gravimetric analysis. It is also useful as an intermediate in the recovery of platinum from wastes.

Purpose
For R&D use onlynot for drug household or other uses.

General Description
Potassium hexachloroplatinate is the inorganic compound with the formula K2PtCl6. It is a yellow solid that is an example of a comparatively insoluble potassium salt. The salt features the hexachloroplatinate(IV) dianion which has octahedral coordination geometry.Potassium hexachloroplatinate may be reduced by hydrazine dihydrochloride to give the corresponding tetrachloroplatinate salt.
