A Lewis basic platinum(0)–CO complex supported by a diphosphine ligand and B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 act cooperatively, in a manner reminiscent of a frustrated Lewis pair, to activate small molecules such as hydrogen, CO 2 , and ethene. This cooperative Lewis pair facilitates the coupling of CO and ethene in a new way.
