%X The complexes Pt[N(p-HC6F4)CH2CH2NMe2]X(L) (L = py , X = Cl or Br; L = 2- methylpyridine or 4-methylpyridine, X = Cl ) have been prepared by decarboxylation reactions between PtX2( dmen ) ( dmen = N,N- dimethylethane - 1,2-diamine) and thallous  pentafluorobenzoate in the appropriate hot pyridine. Other organoamidoplatinum (II) complexes, Pt[N(R)CH2CH2NMe2] X( py ) (R = p-HC6F4, X = I; R = C6F5, X = Cl , Br or I; R = p-MeC6F4, X = Cl ; R = p-ClC6F4 or p-BrC6F4, X = I) and Pt[N(R)CH2CH2NMe2] Cl ( dmpy ) (R = p-HC6F4; dmpy = 2,5-dimethylpyridine), have been prepared by analogous decarboxylations between PtX2( dmen ), thallous 2,3,5,6- tetrafluorobenzoate, and the corresponding polyfluorobenzene, RF. The mixed halogen complex Pt[N(C6F5)CH2CH2NMe2]I0.63Cl0.37( py ) has been prepared similarly and the crystal structure determined. This shows square-planar stereochemistry with the halogen and pyridine trans to NC6F5 and NMe2 respectively. Comparison of spectroscopic data suggests the other complexes have similar stereochemistry.
