The pincer-type complexes [(PCN)PtR] {R = H, 2; Me, 4; PCN = C6H4[CH2P(tBu)2](CH2)2N(CH3)2} proceed with MeLi or Et3BHNa, to announce anionic cis-Pt(Me)H complexes [(PCN*)Pt(H)(Me)]-Li+ (Me trans to P; PCN* denotes the PCN ligand in which the amine arm is not coordinated) and [(PCN*)Pt(Me)(H)]-Na+ (H trans to P). Not the isomer in which the entering nucleophile is situated trans to the phosphane ligand is formed. These elementary d8 anionic alkyl hydride complexes were fully characterized spectroscopically. The hemilabile PCN ligand allows for reversible de-coordination of the amine arm, thereby providing a fine deliberate of stability vs. reactivity. Supposititious calculations on copy systems disclose a concerted mechanism in which the nucleophilic condemn and the amine dissociation take place concurrently. The (unobserved) methane reductive elimination from the enduring anionic methyl hydride complex [(PCN*)Pt(Me)(H)]-Li+ (3) is thermodynamically and kinetically unfavorable, as indicated by DFT. This complex reacts with electrophiles, such as tap water and methyl iodide, to yield exclusively methane and the corresponding organometallic product (either 2 or 4). This reactivity was also accessory examined by DFT <<>>
