Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of a new ligand and the first complex with semicarbazide based ligand coordinated to platinum(IV) ion are reported. The new ligand, pyridoxal semicarbazone (H
2PxSC), and complex [Pt(HPxSC)Cl
3] are characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, infrared, electronic and

H
NMR spectroscopy. The novel complex of platinum(IV) ion contains monoanionic, tridentate ONO ligand, and three chlorine ions.
