Abstract

Reaction of Pt(PnBu3)2Cl2 (1) or Pt(AsnBu32Cl2 (2) with stoichiometric amounts of 1,3,5‐triethynylbenzene, [1,3,5‐(HCC)3C6H3] (3)yields monomeric, [1,3,5‐Cl(PnBu3)2(PtC C)3C6H3] (4), [1,3,5‐(C1)(AsnBu3)2PtC C3C6H3] (5) or polymeric, {1,3,5‐[(PnBu3)2PtCC]3C6H3)n (6), {1,3,5‐[(AsnBu3)2PtC C]3C6H3}n (7) complexes. Treatment of (1) with (3) and 2,5‐diethynyl‐p‐xylene,HC CC6H2(CH3)2C CH (8) in varying molar ratios yields a series of high molecular weight cross linked platinum metal containing polyyne copolymers.
