ChemInform Abstract: Interactions of Isocyanides with Transition Metal Complexes. Part 32. Reactions of Cyclobutenedione and Cyclopentenetrione with Zero‐Valent Nickel Triad Complexes of Isocyanide. X‐Ray Crystal Structures of (3‐4‐η‐3,4‐Diphenylcyclobut‐3‐ene‐1,2‐dione)‐ and (4‐5‐η‐4,5‐Diphenylcyclopent‐4‐ene‐1,2,3‐trione)‐tris(t‐butyl isocyanide)nickel.

Abstract

Treatment of the Pt isocyanide complexes (II) and (III) with the diphenylcyclobutenedione (I) leads to the platinacyclopentenedione compounds (IV).
