Treatment of trans-[PtCl(2)(PPh(2 - n)(C(6)F(5))(n + 1))(2)](n = 0 or 1) with Pb(SC(6)HF(4)-4)(2) yields a mixture of monometallic cis/trans [Pt(SC(6)HF(4)-4)(2)(PPh(2 - n)(C(6)F(5))(n + 1))(2)], thiolate-bridged bimetallic cis/trans [Pt(2)(mu-SC(6)HF(4)-4)(2)(SC(6)HF(4)-4)(2)(PPh(2 - n)(C(6)F(5))(n + 1))(2)] and [Pt(SC(6)HF(4)-4)(2)(1,2-C(6)F(4)(SC(6)HF(4)-4)(PPh(2 - n)(C(6)F(5))(n))].
