The reaction of [Pt2Me4(μ-SMe2)2] with 3-substituted iminic thiophenes and 2-phenylpyridine givesplatinum (II) [C,N] cyclometallated complexes which contain a labile li gand (SMe2 or CH3CN). Several platinum (II) complexes have been synthesized by substitution reactions with phosphine or sulfoxide ligands to introduce, in most cases, a second chiral center. Thenew complexes' reactions with methyl iodide were subsequently studied a nd showed results that are dependent on the steric and electronic effects of both the cyclometallated ligand and the ancillary phosphine or sulfoxide ligand. The structure of [PtMe((R)-C10H7CHMeNCHC4H2S)(CH3CN)], a synthetic precursor, is also reported.
