The Preparation and Structures of New Nido-Platinaheteroboranes

Abstract
Treatment of 4-XB8H12 (X=CH2, NH and S) hetero-boranes1–3 with Pt(PPh3)4 produced new ten-vertex platinaheteroboranes, 9,9-(PPh3)2-6,9-XPtB8H10 which are isoelectronic with nido-6-CB9H13. Their molecular structures were determined by single crystal X-ray studies. ESCA spectra were measured to estimate the influence of heteroborane ligands on central Pt atoms.
