Oxidative addition of a C–Se bond to a PtII centre: contrasting reactions of [MCl2(PhCN)2] (M = Pd, Pt) with cyclohepteno-1,4-diselenin

Abstract

The reaction of cyclohepteno-1,4-diselenin 1 with [PtCl 2 (PhCN) 2 ] proceeds via unprecedented oxidative addition of a C–Se bond to yield a platinum(IV) product, whose novel dimeric structure has been determined by X-ray crystallography; by contrast, 1 reacts with [PdCl 2 (PhCN) 2 ] to form trans-[PdCl 2 L 2 ] (L = 1).
