Abstract

The high nucleophilicity of the sulfur atoms in [Pt₂(dppp)₂(μ-S)₂] triggers a C–F activation process in 1,3-difluoro-2-propanol that leads to the [Pt₂(dppp)₂(μ-S)(μ-SCH₂CH(OH)CH₂F]F product through a S_N2 mechanism, where the O–H⋯F hydrogen bond established from the alcohol group of the organic substrate is essential for assisting the departure of the fluoride anion.
