Compounds with platinum-metal bonds: A personal account

摘要

AbstractA review is given of the chemistry of compounds containing platinum-metal bonds, focussed on the research developed in the author's group. The synthetic methods, structures and bonding, and reactivity are treated, as well as the ability of some compounds to mimic the reactivity of platinum-containing bimetallic catalysts, which are widely used in petroleum reforming.Graphical abstractDisplay OmittedHighlights?Compounds with Pt-M bonds are described.?Synthesis by oxidative addition.?Compounds from PtM to Pt6M2stoichiometry.?Models for hete
