Abstract

Abstract Platinum(II) dihydrides containing bulky phosphine ligands, trans-PtH2L2 (L = PCy3, P-i-Pr3, P-n-Bu-t-Bu2, PMe-t-Bu2), have been prepared conveniently and in excellent yield from the reaction of the corresponding peroxycarbonato complexes with NaBH4. A similar reduction of the dioxygen platinum(II) complexes also affords the dihydrides but less readily. All these dihydrides react with highly activated acetylenes to form the trans-hydridovinyl complexes.
