Abstract
Tetraazadiene ligands (Ar{2}N{4}, Ar = 4-MeC{6}H{4} or 3, 5-Me{2}C{6}H{3}) have been transferred under mild conditions from [Ni(Ar{2}N{4}){2}] to another nickel or platinum centre to yield [M(Ar{2}N{4})(t-BuNC){2}] complexes. No transfer was observed to a palladium centre, and neither was it observed to Ni or Pt in the presence of coligands other
