Novel synthesis of platinum(II) alkenyl compounds via organoboration of platinum(II) acetylides
Abstract
High-yield syntheses of two new types of platinum (II) alkenyl compounds are described: (i) organoboration of trans-[Pt(CC–H)2(PEt3)2] with R13B (R1= Me, Et, or Pri) leads to (E,E)-trans-[Pt(CH
CR1BR12)2-(PEt3)2] and (ii) organoboration of trans-[Pt(C
C–Me)2(PEt3)2] with R13B (R1= Me or Et) leads to (E)-trans-[Pt(C
C–Me)(CMe
CR1BR12)(PEt3)2].
