Stable complexes with the general formula [Cl2ML]2 (M=Pt, Pd; L=vinyl ethers, propenyl ethers, 1,2-dimethoxyethylene) have been prepared. The IR spectra of [Cl2Pt(trans-CH3CH=CHOCH3)]2 showed a change which was attributed to the trans—cis isomerization of the coordinated olefin. A similar cis—trans isomerization was also suggested for the other propenyl ether and 1,2-dimethoxyethylene complexes. The palladium complex of vinyl t-butyl ether was found to react with aqueous NaOH in a way similar to the Wacker process.
