Abstract

The reaction of a dichloromethane solution of a mixture of cis,trans-[PtCl2(SMe2)2] with a tetrahydrofuran solution of SnBr2 resulted in oxidation of platinum(II) with halogen exchange producing cis,trans-[PtBr4(SMe2)2]. Reaction of a mixture of cis,trans-[PtCl2(SEt2)2], potassium tetrachloroplatinate(II) or potassium hexachloroplatinate(IV) with SnBr2 in hydrochloric acid solution resulted in formation of predominantly anionic five-coordinate trichlorostannyl platinum(II) complexes. Reaction of potassium tetrabromoplatinate(II) with SnCl2 in hydrobromic acid in the presence of tetraphenylphosphonium bromide affords cis-[PPh4]2[PtBr2(SnBr3)2]. The insertion of SnCl2 into Pt-Cl bond of platinum(II) complexes cis-[PtCl2(L2)] {L2 = (PPh3)2; (PMe3)2; {P(OMe)3}2; dppm (bis(diphenylphosphino)methane); dppa (bis(diphenylphosphino)amine); and dppe (1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane)} is described.
