    Abstract:
    Photochemical reaction of a diplatinum μ-alkenylidene complex with PhC≡CPh occurs with C-C coupling of the alkenylidene and alkyne moieties to give an expanded, unsaturated μ-η1:η3-butadienediyl ligand. Structural and isotopic-labeling studies indicate that this reaction proceeds by an unusually complex mechanism. © 1991, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
