Abstract

Control of the conformation of the fluorenylidene moiety is achieved through an intramolecular interaction between the fluorenylidene moiety and the axial ligand during the oxidative addition and successive substitution of [Pt^II (fm)] to give [Pt^IV (X)(X')(fm)] (fm=9-fluorenylidenemalonate; see scheme). The conformation of the fm moiety can be effectively induced by the fluorenylidene-philicity of the axial X/X' ligands, OOCCH₃ >OCH₃ >OH.
