Abstract
Oxidative addition of epoxides to [PtCl4]2– in aqueous acids affords the platinum(iv) derivatives [PtCl5(CH2CR(OH)CH2Cl)]2– (R = H (1) and Me (2)). Complex 1 was isolated as a cesium salt and characterized by IR spectroscopy. The complex is stable in acidic media; under basic conditions, the original epoxide and platinum(ii) are recovered. The formation of complex 2 was detected by 1H NMR spectroscopy.
