title: Novel platinum(II) ammine hydroxamate and hydroximate complexes and the platinum-assisted hydrolysis of hydroxamic acids.
abstract: The 2-pyridinecarboxylate (2-pyca) platinum(IV) complex [2-pycaH2][PtCl4(2-pyca)].H2O, 1, has been synthesised from K2[PtCl4] following the hydrolysis of 2-pyridinehydroxamic acid (2-pyhaH) in the presence of H2O2, and directly from K2[PtCl6] and picolinic acid. Structural characterisation of 1 reveals octahedral geometry about platinum(IV) consisting of a (N,O)-bidentate pyridinecarboxylate ligand and four chloride ligands. A mechanism for the hydrolysis of 2-pyridinehydroxamic acid to 2-pyridinecarboxylic acid is proposed. Two novel coordination modes of hydroxamic acids to platinum(II) are also reported. The dinuclear platinum ammine hydroximato complex, [{cis-Pt(NH3)2}2(mu-2-pyhaH(-1))](ClO4)2.H2O, 3, has been synthesised where the two platinum(II) centres are bridged via(O,O) and (N,N) coordination. The latter coordination mode is via the hydroximate nitrogen and the pyridine nitrogen. The corresponding mononuclear platinum(II) pyridinehydroxamate complex, [cis-Pt(NH3)2(2-pyha)]ClO4, 4, has been synthesised. Spectroscopic studies indicate that the coordination mode is through the pyridine nitrogen and hydroxamate oxygen atoms (N,O).
