Solvent-Dependent Reactivity and Photochemistry of Dinuclear and Mononuclear Platinum(IV) Azido Triazaolato Complexes.

ABSTRACT: Reaction between the platinum(IV) azido complex trans,trans,trans-[Pt(py)₂(N₃)₂(OH)₂] (1) and 1,4-diphenyl-2-butyne-1,4-dione 2 in MeCN produces the intermediate peroxide-bridged dimeric platinum(IV) azido triazolato species (5), which has been characterised by X-ray crystallography. However, if the reaction between 1 and 2 is conducted in MeOH it results in decomposition. Over time in MeCN, dimer (5) converts into mononuclear complexes trans,trans,trans-[Pt(py)₂(N₃)(triazole)(OH)₂] (3 a/3 b), which are in dynamic exchange. If resuspended in protic solvents (MeOH,H₂O), 3 a/3 b undergo a slow (22 d) irrevers
