Kinetics and Mechanism of Decomposition of the -Chlorovinyl and -Iodovinyl Complexes of Platinum(IV) in Aqueous Iodide Solutions
摘要:
It was found that the beta-iodovinyl and beta-chlorovinyl complexes of platinum(IV) undergo decomposition in acidic aqueous solutions in the presence of NaI (2.5 M) with the simultaneous formation of acetylene and a corresponding vinyl halide RX (X = Cl, I). The kinetics and the composition of products are consistent with a mechanism that includes an equilibrium step of the reduction of the beta-halovinyl complexes of Pt(IV) by iodide ions to form corresponding Pt(II) derivatives; the degradation of the above organoplatinum compounds by halogen beta-elimination to form acetylene; and a step of the protodemetallation of the sigma-vinyl derivatives of Pt(II), which leads to RX The rate constants of individual steps and the equilibrium constant were estimated.
