Abstract

In order to explore possible ways for modulating the unusually rich chemistry shown by complexes of formula [L2Pt (μ-S) 2PtL2] we have studied the influence of the nature of the terminal ligand L on the chemical properties of the {Pt2 (μ-S) 2} core. The systematic study we now report allows comparison of the behaviour of [Pt2 (dpae) 2 (μ-S) 2](dpae= Ph2As (CH2) 2AsPh2)(1) with the already reported analogue [Pt2 (dppe) 2 (μ-S) 2](dppe= Ph2P ( ...
