A variety of Pt complexes with bulky imidazolyl phosphine ligands 1 were synthesized in order to explore the combined effects of metal and heterocycle on small molecule reactivity. When R2=CH3, linear Pt(0) complexes Pt(1)2 were obtained. In contrast, when R2=H, N-H activation occurred to give complex 2. The reactivites of Pt(1)2 and hydrido Pt(II) complex 2 with acids, alcohols, alkenes and other small molecules will be reported.
