New partially oxidized 1-D platinum chain complexes consisting of carboxylate-bridged cis-diammineplatinum dimer cations.
The first/second examples of partially oxidized 1-D platinum chain compounds consisting of cationic dimer units have been obtained from electro-oxidation of an aqueous solution containing cis-[Pt(NH3)2(OH2)2]2+ and acetate/propionate. The analytical and crystallographic studies reveal the mixed-valency of Pt(2.2+)infinity. The XPS confirms the presence of both Pt(II) and Pt(III). The solid-state physical measurements reveal that they are diamagnetic semiconductors and display a fairly broad, low-energy absorption band in the range of 500-3200 nm.
