Reaction between the diaqua form of cisplatin and 2-methylsulfanylphenylphosphonic acid yields a dinuclear phosphonato-bridged complex via NH3 elimination
C. Mauger et al., Reaction between the diaqua form of cisplatin and 2-methylsulfanylphenylphosphonic acid yields a dinuclear phosphonato-bridged complex via NH3 elimination, INORG CH C, 3(12), 2000, pp. 704-707
Reaction between cis-[Pt(NH3)(2)(H2O)(2)](2+) and (2-methylsulfanyl)phenyl
phosphonic acid (H(2)mspp) did not yield the expected cis-diammine [(2-meth
ylsulfanylphenyl)phosphonato]platinum(II) but the dimeric compound [(Pt(msp
p)(NH3)}(2)] . 6H(2)O in which the dianionic mspp(2-) ligand acts both as c
helator and bridging ligand. Thus, the high trans-effect of the sulfanyl gr
oup apparently leads to elimination of one NH3 ligand. An X-ray crystal str
ucture analysis of the dimeric complex is reported. (C) 2000 Elsevier Scien
