Abstract

NHC(Me)SiCl4 (NHC(Me) = 1,3-dimethylimidazolidin-2-ylidene) was used to synthesise novel NHC(Me)-Pt(ii) complexes. An atypical trans-cis isomerisation process was also achieved for [(NHC(Me))2PtCl2], while the synthesis of the unique double-complex salt [(NHC(Me))Pt(cod)Cl] [(NHC(Me))PtCl3] (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) revealed the first-ever N-heterocyclic carbene analogue of the Cossa's salt anion.
