The Pt(ii) -diimine complexes [PtCl2{N-2-(HCNR)(2)}] (R = C6H11, 1; 4-C6H10OH, 2; 4-C6H4CH3, 3; 4-C6H4OH, 4) and [PtCl2{N-2-(CH3CNOH)(2)}] (5) were prepared in 60-81% yields from the 1:1 molar reactions of cis-[PtCl2(DMSO)(2)] with the appropriate -diimine ...
Determination of Pt in digested animal plasma and tissues using High Resolution Inductively Coupled Plasma HR-ICP-MS. Samples were measured in Low Resolution LR mode considering Pt(194), Pt(195), Pt(196), and Pt(198). In order to minimize the matrix effect ...
Cisplatin and other platinum compounds have had a huge impact in the treatment of cancers and are applied in the majority of anticancer chemotherapeutic regimens. The success of these compounds has biased the approaches used to discover new metal-based ant ...
Metallica: A large contraction of the PtPt bond in the triplet excited state of the photoreactive [Pt2(P2O5H2)4]4- ion is determined by time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy (see picture). The strengthening of the PtPt interaction is accompanied by a ...
This thesis is devoted to the study of the catalytic activity of small supported metal clusters. The TiO2(110)-(1×1) supported platinum cluster activity towards CO oxidation, its correlation with the cluster morphology, support properties, and the cluster ...
The ruthenium(II)-triphos acetato complex [RuCl(OAc)(k3-triphos)] (triphos = (PPh2CH2)3CMe) has been found to be an active catalyst precursor for the hydrogenation of 1-alkenes under relatively mild conditions (5-50 bar H2, 50 °C). In contrast to related t ...
We wish to report the discovery of a new and unexpected polymorph of dicesium tetracyanoplatinate. Short, linear chains of five platinum atoms (platinum “needles”) appear in a zigzag arrangement, interspersed by isolated tetracyanoplatinate ions. ...
Homo- and heterobimetallic complexes of the late transitions metals have been synthesized by metathesis reactions of the corresponding chloro-bridged dimers. These reactions have the advantage of being fast and giving rise to structurally defined products ...
The unexpected but facile prepn. of the Ag salt of the least coordinating [(RO)3Al-F-Al(OR)3]- anion (R = C(CF3)3) by reaction of Ag[Al(OR)4] with one equiv. of PCl3 is described. The mechanism of the formation of Ag[(RO)3Al-F-Al(OR)3] is explained based o ...
