Attempts to prepare the complexes cis-L2Pt(SH)2, where L = PPh3, PMePh2, and PMePh by treatment of the appropriate dichloro complexes with NaSH in the presence of CH2Cl2 have resulted in the isolation of the complexes L2Pt(S2CH2). The X-ray structure determination of the compound for which L = PMe2Ph confirms the presence of the CH2S22−ligand.
