Complexes (1) and (2) react with two equivalents of PPh3 in hot pyridine to form [PtMe(tpzm-H)(PPh3)2](3), which has PPh3 both cis and trans to the methyl group. On heating slowly to 185 C complex (3)forms [Pt(tpzm-H){PPh2(C6H4)}](4), which has PPh3 ortho-metallated to give two cyclometallated ligands bound to Pt(II), NNCNCPtCCP, one forming a six-membered ring and one forming a four-membered ring. Crystal structures of complex (2) and an impurity crystal of [PtMe(tpzm-H)(py)(PPh3)].2py (5), obtained from a sample of (3), are reported. The latter complex has a cis-PtC2NP moiety, with PPh3 trans to the methyl group and pyridine trans to tpzm-H, which is bound via C(5) of a pyrazole ring only.
