Synthesis and characterization of amidate bridged dimeric and oligomeric platinum complexes having short platinum-platinum interactions.
A number of pivalamidate bridged dinuclear [PtII2(RNH2)4(NHCOtBu)2]2+, [PtIII2LL (RNH2)4(NHCOtBu)2]n+ (2RNH2 = 2NH3, 1,2-ethylenediamine, 1,2-diaminocyclohexane; L, L' = NO3-, H2O, or ketonate), trinuclear [{PtII(dap)(NHCOtBu)2}2PdIII]3+ (dap = 1,2-diaminopropane), tetranuclear [{PtII2(NH3)2(DACH)(NHCOtBu)2}2]4+ (DACH = 1,2-diaminocyclohexane), pentanuclear [{Pt2(C5H7O)(NH3)2Cl2(NHCOtBu)2}2PtCl4], and hexanuclear [Pt2(NH3)2(en)(NHCOtBu)2Pt(NO2)4]2 platinum complexes containing Pt(II)-Pt(II), Pt(II)-Pt(III), Pt(II)-Pd(III), and Pt(III)-Pt(III) interactions have been prepared and structurally characterized. The Pt-Pt interactions are characteristic of covalent, dative, or orbital symmetric Pt-Pt bonds. The dimeric Pt(III) complexes are able to activate C-H bonds of ketones to afford ketonate platinum(III) complexes. The Pt-Pt bonds are either doubly amidate-bridged or ligand unsupported. Their distances are 2.99-3.22 A for Pt(II)-Pt(II), 2.59-2.72 A for Pt(III)-Pt(III), 2.98 A for Pt(II)-Pt(III), and 2.66 A for Pt(II)-Pd(III) bonds depending on the oxidation states of the two metals and the ancillary ligands.
