The reaction consists of the initial formation of cyclometallated platinum(IV) compounds followed by a three step process: reductive elimination, isomerisation of the resulting non-cyclometallated intermediate and a final cycloplatination process. Combined 1H NMR and UV-Vis kinetico-mechanistic studies indicated that the rate determining step of the process depends on the nature of the aryl-Pt ligand (phenyl, p-tolyl or p-fluorophenyl).25 p.application/pdfeng(c) respo Vicente, Margarita Ma. et al., 2015Cinètica químicaLligandsChemical kineticsLigandsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6547892020-06-08info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
