We describe the synthesis, characterization, and catalytic hydrosilylation activity of platinum(II) di-ω-alkenyl compounds of stoichiometry PtR2, where R = CH2SiMe2(vinyl) (1) or CH2SiMe2(allyl) (2), and their adducts with 1,5-cyclooctadiene (COD), dibenzo[a,e]cyclooctatetraene (DBCOT), and norbornadiene (NBD), which can be considered as slow-release sources of the reactive compounds 1 and 2. At loadings of 0.5 × 10-6-5 × 10-6 mol %, 1-COD is an active hydrosilylation catalyst that exhibits heat-triggered latency: no hydrosilylation activity occurs toward many olefin substrates even after several hours at 20 °C, but turnover numbers as high as 200000 are seen after 4 h at 50 °C, with excellent selectivity for formation of the anti-Markovnikov product. Activation of the PtII precatalyst occurs via three steps: slow dissociation of COD from 1-COD to form 1, rapid reaction of 1 with silane, and elimination of both ω-alkenyl ligands to form Pt0 species. The latent catalytic behavior, the high turnover number, and the high anti-Markovnikov selectivity are a result of the slow release of 1 from 1-COD at room temperature, so that the concentration of Pt0 during the initial stages of the catalysis is negligible. As a result, formation of colloidal Pt, which is known to cause side reactions, is minimized, and the amounts of side products are very small and comparable to those seen for platinum(0) carbene catalysts. The latent reaction kinetics and high turnover numbers seen for 1-COD after thermal triggering make this compound a potentially useful precatalyst for injection molding or solvent-free hydrosilylation applications.

We describe the synthesis and characterization of three platinum(II) ω-alkenyl complexes of stoichiometry Pt[CH2CMe2(CH2)xCH═CH2]2 where x is 0, 1, or 2, as well as some related platinum(II) compounds formed as byproducts during their synthesis. The ω-alkenyl ligands in all three complexes, cis-bis(η1,η2-2,2-dimethylbut-3-en-1-yl)platinum (2), cis-bis(η1,η2-2,2-dimethylpent-4-en-1-yl)platinum (3), and cis-bis(η1,η2-2,2-dimethylhex-5-en-1-yl)platinum (4), bind to Pt by means of a Pt-alkyl sigma bond at one end of the ligand chain and a Pt-olefin pi interaction at the other; the olefins reversibly decomplex from the Pt centers in solution. The good volatility of 3 (10 mTorr at 20 °C), its ability to be stored for long periods without decomposition, and its stability toward air and moisture make it an attractive platinum chemical vapor deposition (CVD) precursor. CVD of thin films from 3 shows no nucleation delay on several different substrates (SiO2/Si, Al2O3, and VN) and gives films that are unusually smooth. At 330 °C in the absence of a reactive gas, the precursor deposits platinum containing 50% carbon, but in the presence of a remote oxygen plasma, the amount of carbon is reduced to below the Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS) detection limit without affecting the film smoothness. Under hot wall CVD conditions at 250 °C in the absence of a co-reactant, 72% of the carbon atoms in 3 are released as hydrogenated products (largely 4,4-dimethylpentenes), 22% are released as dehydrogenated products (all of which are the result of skeletal rearrangements), and 6% remain in the film. Some conclusions about the CVD mechanism are drawn from this product distribution.

While most Rh-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes currently investigated in anticancer research contain a Rh(III) metal center, an increasing amount of research is focusing on the cytotoxic activity and mode of action of square-planar [RhCl(COD)(NHC)] (where COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) which contains a Rh(I) center. The enzyme thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) and the protein albumin have been proposed as potential targets, but the molecular processes taking place upon protein interaction remain elusive. Herein, we report the preparation of peptide-conjugated and its nonconjugated parent [RhCl(COD)(NHC)] complexes, an in-depth investigation of both their stability in solution, and a crystallographic study of protein interaction. The organorhodium compounds showed a rapid loss of the COD ligand and slow loss of the NHC ligand in aqueous solution. These ligand exchange reactions were reflected in studies on the interaction with hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) as a model protein in single-crystal X-ray crystallographic investigations. Upon treatment of HEWL with an amino acid functionalized [RhCl(COD)(NHC)] complex, two distinct rhodium adducts were found initially after 7 d of incubation at His15 and after 4 weeks also at Lys33. In both cases, the COD and chlorido ligands had been substituted with aqua and/or hydroxido ligands. While the histidine (His) adduct also indicated a loss of the NHC ligand, the lysine (Lys) adduct retained the NHC core derived from the amino acid l-histidine. In either case, an octahedral coordination environment of the metal center indicates oxidation to Rh(III). This investigation gives the first insight on the interaction of Rh(I)(NHC) complexes and proteins at the molecular level.
