Abstract
Transition Metal Silyl Complexes, 44. — Preparation of the Binuclear Silyl Complexes (CO)3(R3Si)Fe(μ‐PR′R′′)Pt(PPh3)2 by Oxidative Addition of (CO)3(R′R′′HP)Fe(H)SiR3 to (C2H4)Pt(PPh3)2The complexes (CO)3(R′R′′HP)Fe(H)SiR3 (1) [PHR′R′′ = PHPh2, PH2Ph, PH2Cy; SiR3 = SiPh3, SiPh2Me, SiPhMe2, Si(OMe)3] react with Pt(C2H4)(PPh3)2 to give the dinuclear, silyl‐substituted complexes (CO)3(R3Si)Fe(μ‐PR′R′′)Pt(PPh3)2 (2) in high yields. Upon reaction of 2 (R = R′ R′′ = Ph) with CO, the PPh3 ligand at Pt being trans to the PPh2 bridge is exchanged, and (CO)3(Ph3Si)Fe(μ‐PPh2)Pt(PPh3)CO (3) is formed. Complex 3 is characterized by an X‐ray structure analysis. The rather short Fe — Si distance [233.9(2) pm] and the infrared spectrum of 3 indicate that the Fe — Pt bond is quite polar.
