    Abstract

    Reactions of the lithiocarbyne [W]CLi ([W] = W(CO)2(Tp∗); Tp∗ = tris(dimethylpyrazolyl)borate) with divalent platinum complexes [PtCl(terpy)]PF6, [PtCl2(η-C4R4)] (R = Me, Et), and [PtCl2(phen)] afford access to μ-carbido, μ-methylidyne and carbyne-based metallo-ligand complexes [Pt(C[W])(terpy)]PF6, [Pt(μ-HC[W])2] and [Pt(C[W])Cl(phen-C[W]-2)], respectively, the last of which provides a rare example of intermolecular organometallic nucleophilic attack at coordinated phenanthroline.
