Examples of hexafluoroplatinates edit

Dioxygenyl hexafluoroplatinate (O₂PtF₆), containing the rare dioxygenyl oxycation.
Xenon hexafluoroplatinate ("XePtF₆"), the first noble gas compound ever synthesised. (The Xe⁺ ion in XePtF₆ is unstable, being a radical; as a result, XePtF₆ itself is unstable and quickly disproportionates into XeFPtF₅, XeFPt₂F₁₁, and Xe₂F₃PtF₆.)^[1]
