A low-coordinate platinum(0)-germylene for E-H bond activation and catalytic hydrodehalogenation.

ABSTRACT: Pairing transition metals and heavier tetrylenes (Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) holds great potential for cooperative bond activation and catalysis. In this work, we investigate the reactivity of a low-coordinate Pt(0)/Ge(II) system that emerges from the reaction between the monoligated platinum(0) precursor [(PMe₂Ar^Dipp2)Pt(olefin)] with germylene dimer [Ar^Dipp2GeCl]₂ (where Ar^Dipp2 = C₆H₃-2,6-(C₆H₃-2,6-ⁱPr₂)₂). The resulting complex reveals ability for cooperative bond activation. Stoichiometric reactions with dihydrogen, water, methanol, ammonia and alkynes unveil the formation of Pt(II)-germyl compounds, characterized by distinct isomeric forms, whose flexibility derive
