Oxidation of Dimethylplatinum(II) Complexes with a Dioxirane: The Viability of Oxoplatinum(IV) Intermediates
收藏资源简介:
The complexes [PtMe2(NN)] (NN = 2,2′-bipyridine = bipy, 1a; NN = di-2-pyridylamine = dpa, 1b; NN = di-2-pyridyl ketone = dpk, 1c) react with dimethyldioxirane in moist acetone to give the hydroxoplatinum(IV) complexes [Pt(OH)2Me2(NN)] (NN = bipy, 2a; NN = dpa, 2b, or [Pt(OH)Me2(dpkOH)], 3). Complex 2a crystallizes as the hydrate 2a·7H2O, which has a complex supramolecular network structure formed through hydrogen bonding between PtOH groups and water molecules. Attempts to trap a potential oxoplatinum(IV) intermediate in these reactions were unsuccessful, and computational studies suggest that oxoplatinum(IV) intermediates are improbable. It is suggested that oxygen atom transfer from the dioxirane to platinum is coupled to proton addition to give the hydroxoplatinum group directly.
