Synthesis and Reactivity of a Platinum(II) Complex with Hydrosulfido Ligands Induced by a Chelated N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligand
A bis(hydrosulfido)platinum(II) complex with a bidentate chelate N-heterocyclic carbene ligand was oxidized by O-2 to give a linear tetrasulfide complex in the presence of excess hydrogen sulfide and a thiosulfato-bridged dinuclear complex without hydrogen sulfide.
