Further studies on the chemistry of tetramethylthiourea-platinum complexes: Evolution of cis-[PtCl{S=C(NMe2)(2)}(PPh3)(2)](+) to the dinuclear monothiocarbamato-sulfido complex [Pt-2(mu-S){mu-SC(O)NMe2}(PPh3)(4)](+)

Reaction of cis-[PtCl2(PPh3)(2)] with tetramethylthiourea (tmtu) in methanol under various conditions has been re-investigated. In the absence of base, the simple ligand substitution product [PtCl(tmtu)(PPh3)(2)]PF6 can be isolated by addition of excess NH4PF6. The complex was characterised by posit...
