Bis(μ-diisopropylphosphanido-κ2P:P)bis[hydrido(triisopropylphosphane-κP)platinum(II)]

In the centrosymmetric molecular structure of the title compound [Pt2(C6H14P)2H2(C9H21P)2], each PtII atom is bound on one side to a phosphane ligand (PiPr3) and a hydrido ligand. On the other side, it is bound to two phosphanide ligands (μ-PiPr2), which engage a bridging position betwe...

Description
Summary:In the centrosymmetric molecular structure of the title compound [Pt2(C6H14P)2H2(C9H21P)2], each PtII atom is bound on one side to a phosphane ligand (PiPr3) and a hydrido ligand. On the other side, it is bound to two phosphanide ligands (μ-PiPr2), which engage a bridging position between the two PtII atoms, forming a distorted square-planar structure motif. The Pt...Pt distance is 3.6755 (2) Å. A comparable molecular structure was observed for bis(μ-di-tert-butylphosphanido)bis[hydrido(triethylphosphane)platinum(II)] [Itazaki et al. (2004). Organometallics, 23, 1610–1621].
