The exchange of the silyl ligands upon reaction of [(kappa(2)-P,P)-R2PCH2CH2PR2]Pt(SiMe2Ph)(2) (R = Ph, Me, cyclohexyl) with HSi(OMe)(3) or 1,2-bis(dimethylsilyl)benzene was investigated by NMR spectroscopy. The exchange rate is considerably lower than in the complexes cis-(R3P)(2)Pt(SiMe2Ph)(2), and decreases in the order R = Ph > Me > cyclohexyl. No exchange was observed in the analogous reactions of trans-(R3P)(2)Pt(SiMe2Ph)(2). The isomerization of cis-(PhMe2P)(2)Pt(SiMe2Ph)(2) into trans-(PhMe2P)(2)Pt(SiMe2Ph)(2) is catalyzed by di- and oligosilanes. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
