Abstract

Abstract The yellow complex trans-[PtCl 2 L 2](L= PPh 2 CH (SiMe 3) 2) has been characterised. An attempt to make a similar complex with the more sterically hindered phosphine PPh 2 C (SiMe 3) 3 resulted in the loss of a trimethylsilyl group from one phosphine ligand and activation of a C H bond in another to give the white complex Full- size image (< 1 K)
