Abstract
series of square-planar platinum(II) complexes of the N,C,N-terdentate-coordinating monoanionic pincer ligand, [PtX(4-E-2,6-{CH2NRR}2-C6H2)] (X=Cl, Br, I, tolyl; R, R=Et, Me; E=H, OH, OSiMe2tBu) has been prepared. In the presence of sulfur dioxide, these complexes spontaneously adsorb this gas to form pentacoordinated adducts. Solid-state crystal-structure analyses of the SO2 adducts 8 c
