“…The spectroscopic instrumentation employed has been previously reported. [20a] PPh 2 CCR (R Ph, [47] tBu, [47] Tol [48] ), cis-[Pt(C 6 F 5 ) 2 (tht) 2 ], [49] (NBu 4 ) 2 [Pd(m-Br)(C 6 F 5 ) 2 ] 2 , [49] and cis-[Pt(C 6 F 5 ) 2 (thf) 2 ] 1 [50] were prepared according to literature methods. The synthesis of complexes 2 a, 2 b, 3 a, 3 b, 6 a, and 7 a as well as 10 a ± 12 a, 13 a, and 14 a was reported as supporting information, [12] and is therefore not included in this work.…”
