Résumé

Ab initio calculations (Hartree-Fock, generalized valence bond, and configuration interaction), utilizing relativistic core potentials, have been used to follow the oxidative addition of H2 to Pt(PH3)2. We find an activation barrier of 2.3 kcal/mol and an exothermicity of 15.9 kcal/mol. From examination of the geometries and wave functions, we find that up to the transition state the H-H bond is still intact. The role of the Pt s1d9 and d10 states in oxidative addition is described, and the effects of including electronic correlation are discussed. The implications for reductive elimination of the dimethyl and hydridomethyl complexes are also discussed.
