Abstract: | Unusual Structures of Platinum(II)-ate Complexes X-ray investigations at PtII-ate complexes of the type “Li2Pt(CH3)4](Solv.)2” revealed a new structure type of organometallic compounds of platinum(II). The synthesis of the highly reactive compounds Li2{Pt(CH3)4}(Solv.)2]n (Solv. = Et2O, THF, n = 2; TMEDA, PMDTA; n = 1) as well as studies by NMR and DTA will be described. |
