η2-(C,C) ketene complexes Pt(CH2=C=O)L2 (L = PPh3 and Cl) and PtCl2(CH2=C=O) (PMe2Ph)2, which were isolated from the reaction of PtL4 with CH2Br2 and carbon monoxide in the presence of Zn or direct ligation of PtL4 with ketene, thermally decomposed to afford a variety of hydrocarbons by a novel pathway involving C-C bond cleavage of the bound ketenes and underwent reduction with H2 to yield acetaldehyde, ethanol, and hydrocarbons.
