The reaction of Cp*MgCl{center dot}THF (Cp* = C{sub 5}Me{sub 5}) with 1 equiv of PtMe{sub 3}I and PtMe{sub 2}Br{sub 2} produces Cp*PtMe{sub 3} (1) and Cp*PtMe{sub 2}Br (2), respectively. Reaction of 2 with Br{sub 2} produces Cp*PtMeBr{sub 2} (3) in good yield. The structures of 2 and 3 have been determined by x-ray crystallography, and the crystal structure data are reported. Complex 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group, P2{sub 1}/m, and complex 3 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group, P2{sub 1}/m. The molecules reside on mirror planes and are monomeric pseudotetrahedral Pt(IV) complexes with piano stool type geometries and {eta}{sup 5}-Cp* groups. Both molecules have Br atoms on the mirror. This leads to a disorder of the Me and the second Br positions in complex 3. The average Pt-C(Cp*) bond length is 2.25 (7) {angstrom} in 2 and 2.22 (4) {angstrom} in 3. The Pt-C(Me) and Pt-Br bond lengths in 2 are 2.07 (2) and 2.498 (2) {angstrom}, respectively. The ordered Pt-Br bond length in 3 is 2.496 (2) {angstrom}. Treatment of 1 with halogens results in the cleavage of the Pt-Cp* bond. The reaction of PtMe{sub 3}I with KTp* (Tp* = (HB(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl){sub 3}){sup {minus}}) in thf gives Tp*PtMe{sub 3} (4) in almost quantitative yield. The reaction of 4 with Br{sub 2} brominates the 4-position of the pyrazolyl ring only. 28 refs., 2 figs., 5 tabs.
