Linear triplatinum complexes with 48e(-), [Pt3(μ-tdpmp)2(RNC)2](PF6)2 (R = 2,6-xylyl (3), (t)Bu (4)), were synthesized by using a branched tetraphosphine, tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)phosphine (tdpmp), and characterized by crystallographic and spectroscopic analyses to show their novel dynamic behaviour in the solution state, in which the linear Pt3 unit was stabilized by two spinning tetraphosphine ligands.
