Abstract: | Electroreduction of cis and trans dihalogeobis(isocyanide)platinum(II) complexes PtL2X2 (X = Cl, Br, I; L = cyclohexyl isocyanide or tert-butyl isocyanide) on gold and platinum electrodes has been studied in propylene carbonate and acetonitrile containing tetraethylammonium perchlorate as supporting electrolyte. The first, monoelectronic, reduction step is irreversible, the half-wave potential being critically dependent on the chemical nature of X in PtL2X2. Potentiostatic reductive coulometry of PtX2L2 in the cavity of an ESR spectrometer produces a signal attributed to a monomeric paramagnetic PtI complex. It is also shown that one halide anion is liberated per PtX2L2 in this first reduction step. A second monoelectronic reduction step is observed, which results in the decomposition of the complex to form a solid deposit containing platinum on the electrode. A reduction scheme is proposed for PtX2L2, on the basis of these results. |
