A novel type of Pt-C interaction and a model for the final stage in reductive elimination processes involving C-C coupling at Pt; synthesis and molecular geometry of [1,N,N′-η-2,6-bis{(dimethylamino)methyl}- toluene]iodoplatinum(II) tetrafluoroborate
article
Square-planar complexes of the type R[graphic omitted]MX (M = Pt or Pd), containing the terdentate ligand 2,6-(Me2NCH2) 2C6H3, undergo with MeI (M = Pt, X = BF 4) oxidative addition and consecutive reductive elimination resulting in the formation of the complex BF4- [IPt[graphic omitted]R-Me]+ in which the C-aryl centre, at which C-C coupling has occurred, is bonded to the cationic Pt-centre by a novel Pt-to-C-interaction.
