Abstract

The P,N,P-tridentate ligand 2,6-bis(diphenylphosphino)pyridine, L, was employed to generate a twelve-membered metallomacrocyclic host species cis-Pt(2)Me(4)(mu-L)(2) that encapsulates Tl(I) and Cu(I) guest ions. The ligand was also used to synthesize another two linear heterotrinuclear complexes, [Me(2)Pt(mu-L)(2)Ag(2)(MeCN)(2)](BF(4))(2).MeCN and [(CO)(3)Fe(mu-L)(2)Ag(2)(Et(2)O)](ClO(4))(2), both containing a metal-metal dative bond (Pt-->Ag and Fe-->Ag, respectively) and stabilized by the d(10)-d(10) argentophilic interaction.
