Stable trans isomer as the kinetic and theromodynamic product for the oxidative addition of MeI to cycloplatinated(II) complexes comprising isocyanide ligands

The present investigation introduces a new series of cycloplatinated(II) complexes, with the general formula Pt(O-bpy)(Me)(CN-R)] (R = benzyl, 2-naphtyl and tert-butyl), which are able to generate the stable trans-Pt(IV) product in the solution after the reaction with iodomethane. In fact, the trans product is both the kinetic and thermodynamic product of the reaction; this observation was supported by DFT calculations. These Pt(II) complexes are supported by 2,2'-bipyridine N-oxide (O-bpy) and one of several isocyanides as the cyclometalated and ancillary ligands, respectively. These new Pt(II) complexes undergo oxidative addition with MeI to give the corresponding trans-Pt(IV) complexes. All the complexes were identified employing the multi-nuclear NMR spectroscopy and single crystal Xray crystallography. The kinetic investigations were also performed for the oxidative addition reactions in order to measure the reaction rates; the reaction was followed by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The rates obtained follow the trend CN-Bu > CN-Bz > CN-2Np for the CN-R Page 1 of 26 John Wiley & Sons Applied Organometallic Chemistry 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60
