Formation of C−X Bonds Through Stable Low-Electron Count Cationic Pt(IV) Alkyl Complexes Stabilized by N-Heterocyclic Carbenes. Organometallics, 33 (21), 5944-5947.0276-7333 (impreso)1520-6041 (electrónico)https://hdl.handle.net/11441/78704Cationic five-coordinate Pt(IV) alkyl complexes stabilized by bulky N-heterocyclic carbenes have been isolated and fully characterized. Related species have been postulated as key intermediates in carbon–heteroatom coupling reactions and most particularly in Shilov-type chemistry. The alkyl groups exhibit a pronounced electrophilic character and can undergo nucleophilic addition of pyridine, bromide, or iodide to form new carbon–heteroatom bonds. Nevertheless, direct reductive coupling to form C–X bonds can be operative in the absence of an external nucleophile source.application/pdfengAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess10.1021/om500881k
