The reaction of trans-[PtCl2(NCMe)(2)] with a 5-fold excess of MeNH2 in CH2
Cl2 at -10 degrees C affords in high yield the bis-amidine complex trans-[P
tCl2{Z-N(H) = C(NHMe)Me}(2)] (1),where both the amidine ligands assume the
Z configuration corresponding to the trans addition of the amine along the
C = N triple band. Compound I has been fully characterized by spectroscopic
techniques and also by X-ray diffraction analysis. (C) 2000 Elsevier Scien
