Abstract
A series of cycloplatinated carbosilane dendrimers appended with the monoanionic C, N-bidentate ligand [C{6}H{4}{CH{2}NMe{2}}-2]}-{ (CN) was prepared via a multiple C@?H activation reaction. Ligand exchange in the parent model species [PtCl(C{6}H{3}{CH{2}NMe{2}}-2-SiMe{3}-5)(DMSO)] (1) in the presence of PPh{3} gave the phosphine complex [PtCl(C{6}H{3}{CH{2}NMe{2}}-2-SiMe{3}-5)(PPh{3})] (2). The crystal structure of 2 was also
