Abstract
Compounds cis-[Pt(PPh3)2(3-X-C6H4)2] [X = F, Cl, CF3, CH3O, (CH3)2N] and cis- [Pt(PPh3)2(3-X-C6H4)(Y-C6H4)] [X = F / Y = H, 4-F, 4-CF3, 4-CH3O; X = Cl/Y = 4-F; X = CF3 /Y = 4-F; X = CH3O/Y = 4-F] have been synthesized and studied thermally with respect to the reductive elimination of disubstituted biphenyls. Activation parameters ⊿H≠ and ⊿S≠ are reported and discussed.
