A series of palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes [M(PR3)2(solvent)2](Y)2 (M = Pd, Pt; PR3 = 1/2 Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2, PMePh2, PPh3; solvent = py, dmso, Me2CO; Y - ClO4, PF6) have been isolated and characterized. The dmso ligands are all oxygen-bonded. Acetone is a very weak ligand readily displaced by moisture, olefins, and even perchlorate ions. The catalytic activity of the acetone complexes in the isomerization and hydrogenation of oct-1-ene is described and compared with that of the chloride-bridged dimeric complexes [M2(μ-Cl)2(PR3)4] (ClO4)2 (M = Pd, Pt; PR3 = 1/2 Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2, PMePh2) in acetone solution.
