Abstract
Reaction of PtCl2 with Hmp (Hmp = 4-hydroxy-2-mercaptopteridine) afforded t he unique platinum-pteridine complex Pt2Cl4(Hmp)(2), in which the Hmp ligan d bridges the metal centers through the pyrazine ring nitrogen atom and the sulfur atom in a neutral form. This bonding mode is in marked contrast to the usual O4,N5-chelation mode of the pteridine units found in all the othe r reported complexes. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
