Abstract

The C–H activation in Shilov's system on cis- and trans-PtCl2(H2O)(CH4) was investigated by ab initio molecular dynamics in water. Simulations revealed an easy C–H bond cleavage forming a transient 5-coordinated species Pt(H)Cl2(H2O)(CH3) that spontaneously releases a proton to the bulk solution.
