Reaction of [Pt(C2H4)(PPh3)2] with propenoate or 2-methylpropenoate esters gave the complexes [Pt(propenoate)(PPh3)2] in good yield. These have been characterised by 1H, 13C, 31P and 195Pt NMR spectroscopy. The complex of benzyl propenoate has been characterised in a diffraction study. Reaction of the complexes produced with tricyclohexylphosphine, PCy3, gave [Pt(propenoate)(PCy3)(PPh3)]. The propenoate complexes were shown to be more stable than those of the 2-methylpropenoates.
