Abstract
Complexes made by reacting the platinum group metals with alkyl or aryl phosphines are of considerable potential interest. Many of them are soluble in aromatic or polar aliphatic solvents and are already finding applications as homogenous catalysts. In this paper the methods available for producing the phosphine complexes are reviewed, and details are given of a range of phosphine stabilised hydrido and phosphine stabilised carbonyl hydrido complexes of the metals, all of which have been produced under controlled conditions and are now available in research quantities.
