Commercial reagent grade chemicals and solvents (Sigma-Aldrich, Milan, Italy) were used as received without further purification. One-dimensional (1D)
1H-NMR, 1D
13C-NMR, and [
1H-
13C] HSQC 2D NMR spectra were recorded on Bruker
Avance III 700 MHz and Bruker Avance DPX 300 MHz instruments (Bruker Italia S.r.L., Milano, Italy).
1H and
13C chemical shifts were referenced using the internal residual peak of the solvent (DMSO-d
6: 2.50 ppm for
1H and 39.51 ppm for
13C; D
2O: 4.80 ppm for
1H, Acetone-d
6: 2.05 ppm for
1H and 29.92 for
13C, CD
3OD: 3.31 ppm for
1H and 49.15 ppm for
13C). Electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) was performed with an electrospray interface and an ion trap mass spectrometer (
1100 Series LC/MSD Trap system Agilent, Palo Alto, CA).
Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission analyses were performed with an ICP-AES ThermoScientific
iCap 6000 Series spectrometer (ICAP 6300 with dual view, empowered by iTeva software; Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA).
[Pt(OXA)(DACHEX)] and PhICl
2 [10 (
