[Pt(C 2 N 2 Se 2 )(PR 3 ) 2 ] (PR 3 = PMe 2 Ph, PPh 3 ) and [Pt(C 2 N 2 Se 2 )(PP)] (PP = dppe, dppm, dppf) were obtained by the reaction of the appropriate metal halide containing complex with potassium cyanodiselenoimidocarbonate. The dimeric cyanodiselenoimidocarbonate complexes [M{(C 2 N 2 Se 2 )(η 5 ‐C 5 Me 5 )} 2 ] (M = Rh Ir)] were synthesised from the appropriate transition metal dimer starting material. The cyanodiselenoimidocarbonate ligand is Se , Se ‐bidentate in the monomeric complexes − the terminal CN group is approximately coplanar with the CSe 2 group, and the nitrogen atom is trigonal therefore reducing the planar symmetry of the ligands.
