Abstract

When trans,trans-(C6F5)(p-tol3P) 2Pt(C≡C)3Pt-(P-p-tol3)2(C 6F5) and Ar2P(CH2) mPAr2 (m l Ar = 8 / p-tol, 10 / Ph, 11 / Ph, 12 / Ph, 14 / p-tol) are reacted, p-tol3P is displaced to give products in which the diphosphines span the platinum end groups. One crystal structure (m = 14) shows a double-helical conformation in which the sp3 carbon chains twist around the sp chain, and others (m = 10, 11) show nonhelical conformations with lateral shielding of the sp chain.
