Abstract
The molecular structure of the title compound shows the cyclopentadien yl ring to be near planar, eta1-bonded, and trans to the tertiary phos phine. Compounds of this geometry react with Ag+ to produce [Pt(eta5-C 5H5)(CO)(PR3)]+; these in turn regenerate the same isomers of the eta1 -C5H5 complexes on subsequent halide treatment. Reasons for the failur e to observe other geometries for compounds [PtCl(eta1-C5H5)(CO)(PR3)] are discussed.
