Abstract
Abstract This review covers over 20 monomeric platinum complexes of Pt{η2-P(X)nP}Cl2 (n = 9–15, 17, 19) type. The chelating P,P-donor ligands create wide varieties of the metallocyclic rings: 12-membered (PC9P, PC3NCNC3P), 13-membered (PC3NC2NC3P), 14-membered (PC11P, PO(SiO)5P, PC2OC2OC2OC2P), 15-membered (PC12P), 16-membered (PCOC9OCP), 17-membered (P(C2O)4C2P), 18-membered (PC2OC9OC2P, PC4NC2NC2NC4P), 20-membered (P(C2O)5C2P), and 21-membered (POC2NC10NC2OP). For these complexes the most common is a predominantly cis-arranged with 17 examples and only four examples with trans-configuration. The total mean values of Pt–L bond distances in the complexes with cis- versus trans-configuration are: 2.252 Å (P trans to Cl), 2.355 Å (Cl trans to P) vs 2.288 Å (P trans to P), and 2.304 Å (Cl trans to Cl). There are examples which exist in cis- and trans-isomeric forms and distortion isomers. A brief survey on the structural data of almost 180 examples of Pt{η2-P(X)nP}Cl2 (n = 1–8) type complexes is added and discussed.
