The title compound, trans-[PtCl(CH3){As(C6H4CH3)3}2], is one of the few bis tertiary arsine complexes of platinum(II). The complex exhibits square-planar geometry with the two arsine ligands in a non-linear trans orientation with an As1-Pt-As2 bond angle of 175.66 (4)°. The large trans influence of the methyl substituent is manifested in the long Pt-Cl bond distance of 2.397 (3) angstroms.
