Abstract

The reactions of [Pt2Me4 (μ-SMe2) 2](1) with chlorinated ligands Me2NCH2CH2N CHAr (Ar= C6Cl5 (2a); 2, 3, 6-C6H2Cl3 (2b); 2, 3, 5-C6H2Cl3 (2c); 2, 4-C6H3Cl2 (2d); 3, 5- C6H3Cl2 (2e) and 3-C6H4Cl (2f)) yield either cyclometallated [C, N, N′] platinum (IV) complexes [PtMe2Cl (Me2NCH2CH2N CHR–C, N, N′)], arising from C–Cl bond activation, or cyclometallated [C, N, N′] platinum (II) complexes [PtMe (Me2NCH2CH2N ...
