To write the IUPAC name of the coordination complex \([Pt(Py)_4][PtCl_4]\), we will follow these steps:
### Step 1: Identify the Components
The complex consists of two parts: a cation and an anion. The cation is \([Pt(Py)_4]^{2+}\) and the anion is \([PtCl_4]^{2-}\).
### Step 2: Name the Cation
1. Identify the ligands in the cation. Here, we have four pyridine (Py) ligands.
2. The prefix "tetra-" is used for four ligands. Therefore, we name it "tetrapyridine".
