The trans effect may be used for synthetic purposes; thus, the reaction of the tetrachloroplatinate(2−) ion with ammonia yields cis-diamminedichloroplatinum, whereas the reaction of the tetraammineplatinum(2+) ion with the chloride ion gives the trans isomer, trans-diamminedichloroplatinum. The reactions are shown below.
