Alkenes Hartree-Fock calculations

Complexes of bulky substituted phenanthrolines [Pt(N-N)LX2] (L, X both monodentate N-N, e.g. 2,9-dimethyl- 1,10-phenanthroline) can be 5-coordinate tbp when a good 7r-acceptor (e.g. C2H4) is present or 4-coordinate with monodentate phenanthrolines. Hartree-Fock calculations indicate that the 7r-acceptors reduce the electron density at platinum so that the metal can accept charge from another donor. Species of this kind may be involved in alkene hydrogenation [138].
