Two cycloplatinated complexes of the form [Pt(NC)CH sub(3)(P)] super( +) incorporating a rare, bidentate NC-chelating pyridylpyridylidene ligand are reported. The phosphorus-based ligand P is either 2,4,6-triphenylphosphinine or triphenylphosphine. These mononuclear complexes have been fully charact...
