Abstract
Complexes of the type trans-[MCl(CO)L2] and [MCl3(CO)L2], M = Rh or Ir, L = PMe2Ph or PEt2Ph, have been shown to react with each other, presumably by a double chloro-bridged intermediate, and undergo rapid oxidative addition–reductive elimination; phosphine exchange is much slower. Similar results were obtained when trans-[PtCl4(PEt3)2] was treated with trans-[MCl(CO)(PEt3)2], M = Rh or Ir, for which rapid and complete conversion into trans-[PtCl2(PEt3)2] and [MCl3(CO)(PEt3)2] occurred. Phosphorus-31 n.m.r. data are given.
