✦ Synopsis

Carbon disulphide inserts into the Pt-H bond oj trans-{PtH,[P(C~,1)3]2} to give trans-{PtH(S,CH) [P(CJ113J2}. The X-ray structure shows that the -S2CH group is bonded to the metal through a sulfur atom as a monodentate thioformate anion. The kinetics of the carbon disulfide insertion have been investigated. The results account for a mechanism involving CS, addition to trans-{PtH,[P(C~,~)~]~} to give a fivecoordinate intermediate, which collapses to trans-{PtH
