title: Hydrogen bonding directs the H2O2 oxidation of platinum(II) to a cis-dihydroxo platinum(IV) complex.
abstract: The use of ligands with proximate hydrogen bonding substituents in the oxidation of platinum(II) dimethyl complexes with H2O2 leads to the exclusive formation of an unusual cis-dihydroxo platinum(IV) complex, which can dehydrate to form a trinuclear metalla-azacrown complex.
