The acid dissociation constant of the axial aqua ligand in the Head-to-Head (HH) dinuclear pivalamidato-bridged cis-di-) and the formation constants of the successive substitution reactions on the axial sites of the HH α-pyrrolidonato-bridged cis-diammineplatinum(III) dinuclear complex and the HH pivalamidato-bridged cis-diammineplatinum(III) dinuclear complex with halide ions X − (X − = Cl − and Br − ) to give monohalo and dihalo complexes were determined spectrophotometrically at 25°C and I = 2.0 M. A kinetic study was also performed for the monohalo and dihalo complex formations. The effect of the bridging ligand upon the axial site reactivity was compared and discussed. The ligand substitution behavior of the monohalo complex was af-
Reactions of a pivalamidato-bridged head-to-head (HH) platinum(III) binuclear complex with 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene (isoprene) and p-styrenesulfonate and of an α-pyrrolidonato-bridged HH platinum(III) binuclear complex with p-styrenesulfonate were studied kinetically using UV-vis spectrophotometry and (1)H NMR spectroscopy, and detailed reaction mechanisms are proposed. Pt(III) binuclear complexes react with p-styrenesulfonate in four successive steps with mechanisms similar to that for an HH α-pyridonato-bridged Pt(III) binuclear complex with p-styrenesulfonate. In the case of isoprene, four steps were observed on the basis of UV-vis spectrophotometry. However, the reaction kinetics for steps 1 and 2 correspond to those for the previous reaction system, and those for steps 3 and 4 do not correspond to those for the previous system or to those observed by using (1)H NMR spectroscopy for the present isoprene system. By using UV-vis spectrophotometry, it was shown that isoprene preferentially π-coordinates to the Pt(N(2)O(2)) atom via the double bond adjacent to the methyl group in step 1. In step 2, a second isoprene molecule π-coordinates to the Pt(N(4)) atom, which is the rate-determining step, followed by nucleophilic attack of a water molecule on the π-coordinated isoprene on the Pt(N(2)O(2)) atom to form two isomeric σ-complexes. In the same step, π-coordinated isoprene on the Pt(N(4)) atom of the σ-complexes is released. This is different from the reaction of the Pt(III) binuclear complexes with other olefins. In step 3, reductive elimination of the σ-complexes occurs to form two diols and the HH pivalamidato-bridged Pt(II) binuclear complex. Finally, acid decomposition of the Pt(II) binuclear complex occurs to form monomers in step 4. From (1)H NMR spectroscopic observations, fast isomerization between σ-complexes and reductive elimination of the σ-complexes occurs in step 3, and isomerization from a 1,4-diol to a 1,2-diol occurs in step 4.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
