A Cationic Unsaturated Platinum(II) Complex that Promotes the Tautomeration of Acetylene to Vinylidene

A Cationic Unsaturated Platinum(II) Complex that Promotes the Tautomeration of Acetylene to Vinylidene

Complex [PtMe2 (PMe2 ArDipp2)] (1), which contains a tethered terphenyl phosphine (ArDipp2 =2,6-(2,6-(i) Pr2 C6 H3)2 C6 H3), reacts with [H(Et2 O)2 ]BArF (BArF(-) =B[3,5-(CF3 )2 C6 H3 ]4(-) ) to give the solvent (S) complex [PtMe(S)(PMe2 ArDipp2)](+) (2⋅S). Although...

Cationic Platinum(II) sigma-SiH Complexes in Carbon Dioxide Hydrosilation

The low electron count cationic platinum complex [Pt(ItBu’)(ItBu)][BArF], 1, interacts with primary and secondary silanes to form the corresponding σ-SiH complexes. According to DFT calculations the most stable coordination mode is the uncommon η1-SiH. The reaction of...
