Cyanoalkyl complexes of transition metals III. Reactions of organometallic complexes of palladium and platinum with sodium dicyanomethanide

Abstract

Reactions of MI(CH3)(PPh3)2 or MCl(CH2COR)(PPh3)2 (M = Pd, Pt) with sodium dicyanomethanide in methanol gave novel metal complexes. Spectroscopic data suggest that these complexes contain either an iminoether chelate ring or a carbon-carbon chelate ring which was derived from CH(CN)2-. © 1974.
