Abstract

Alkyl and arylplatinum complexes with 1,5-cyclooctadiene ligand, [PtR2(cod)] (R = Me, Ph, C6H4-p-CF3, C6F5), react with secondary phosphines, PHR′2 (R′ = i-Bu, t-Bu, Ph), to afford the mononuclear platinum complexes, cis-[PtR2(PHR′2)2] (1a: R = Me, R′ = i-Bu; 1b: R = Me, R′ = t-Bu; 1c: R = Me, R′ = Ph; 2a: R = Ph, R′ = i-Bu; 2b: R = Ph, R′ = t-Bu; 2c: R = R′ = Ph; 3a: R = C6H4-p-CF3, R′ = i-Bu; 3b: R = C6H4-p-CF3, R′ = t-Bu; 3c: R = C6H4-p-CF3, R′ = Ph; 4a: R = C6F5, R′ = i-Bu; 4c: R = C6F5, R′ = Ph) in 81–98% yields. Molecular structures of the complexes except for 1a, 1c and 2a were determined by X-ray crystallography. Complex 1b has a square-planar structure with Pt–C(methyl) bonds of 2.083(8) and 2.109(8) Å, while the Pt–C(aryl) bonds of 2b–c, 3a–c, 4a and 4c (2.055(1)–2.073(8) Å) are shorter than them. Thermal decomposition of 1b, 2a–c, and 3a–c releases methane, biphenyl or 4,4′-bis(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl as the organic products, which are characterized by NMR spectroscopy. The solid product of the thermal reactions of 2b and 2c were characterized as the metallopolymers formulated as [Pt(PR′2)2]n (5b: R′ = tBu; 5c: R′ = Ph), based on the solid-state NMR and elemental analyses.
