Abstract
The preparation of two new bis(N-heterocyclic carbene) platinum(II) complexes, in which NHC rings are joined by a CH2 linker group, is described. While, the chelate complex [PtMe2(bis-NHC1)], 1, was formed with large tert-butyl wingtips, the iso-propylN-substituent analogue favors formation of the cluster complex [Pt2Me4(μ-SMe2)(μ-bis-NHC2)]2(μ-Ag2Br2), 2, in which two binuclear platinum(II) complexes are linked together by an Ag2Br2 unit. The chelating platinum complex 1 undergoes aerial CO2 fixation and forms platinum(II) carbonate complex [Pt(CO3)(bis-NHC1)], 3.Keywords
