Abstract
Abstract Reaction of dichloro- and diiodo-(1,5-cyclooctadiene)platinum(II) with excess diazomethane affords the corresponding air-stable bis(halomethyl) complexes Pt(CH 2 X) 2 (COD) (X = Cl or I) in excellent yield. Displacement of COD from Pt(CH 2 Cl) 2 (COD) with 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane or two molar equivalents of PPh 3 gives the analogous phosphine complexes.
