In the title compound, [PtI2(C26H24P2)]·2CH2Cl2, the PtI2(dppe) [dppe = 1,2-bis-(diphenyl-phosphino)ethane] mol-ecules possess twofold rotation symmetry. The Pt coordination displays a square-planar arrangement, with the sum of the angles around the Pt atom being 360.01 (2)°. The Pt - I distance is 2.6484 (5) Å. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular C - H⋯I contacts link the PtI2(dppe) mol-ecules into rows along the c axis, with a C⋯I distance of 3.873 (5) Å. © International Union of Crystallography 2007.
