The ethyl group in [Pt(Et)(Cl)(PEt3)2] is
prone to β - hydride
elimination.
β-hydride elimination is a reaction in which an alkyl group bonded
to a metal centre is converted into the corresponding metal-bonded
hydride and an alkene.The alkyl must have hydrogens on the
β-carbon.
for example:
In [Pt(Me)(Cl)(PEt3)2] , the methyl
(Me : -CH3) group doesn't has a β-carbon,
while
In [Pt(Et)(Cl)(PEt3)2], the ethyl (Et
: -C2H5) group there is a β-carbon
present with a hydrogen attached to it, hence β - hydride
elimination readily takes place.

i can't solve this question of coordination chemistry, could someone hlep me please Exercise 1: 1. What kind(s) of interaction between the ligand and the metal ion is(are) considered in the crystal field approach? 2. Give and justify the degeneracy lifting for a tetrahedral complex. Would it be the same for an octahedral complex? 3. Let us consider hexaaquacopper(II) ion. Justify the elongation of two opposite Cu-O bonds (along z for example) compared to the other four Cu-O bonds using...
