Abstract
The new chiral arylplatinum(II) compounds [2, 6-bis(1-(dimethylamino)ethyl)phenyl]chloroplatinum(II) (4) and (-)-[(1R,1'R)-bis(1-(dimethylamino)propyl)phenyl]chloroplatinum(II) (5) have been synthesized. The transmetallation of the corresponding aryllithium compounds does not affect either stereogenic centres of the organic ligand while the rate of the transmetallation is shown to be influenced by the size of the benzylic substituents. The
