1. Synthetic Procedures.
A. General considerations: 1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane (o-carborane) and 1,7-dicarba-
closo-dodecaborane (m-carborane) were purchased from Katchem (Czech Republic, price per
gram if ordered on a scale > 100g is approximately 22$) and used as received. Selenium
monochloride (Se2Cl2) was purchased from Strem Chemicals and was used as received. All other
solvents and chemicals were obtained from Aldrich Chemical Co. (Milwaukee, USA).
Deuterated solvents were purchased from Cambridge Isotope Laboratories and used as received.
Carborane thiols were prepared according to procedures established by Plesek et al.1 and
Zakharkin et al.2 For I, II, III, and V full characterization is provided below (pp. 5-6). Carborane
selenols were prepared according to modified procedures established by Zakharkin et al.3-4
Syntheses of ligands 1g-1i,5 and their Pt(II) complexes 2h, 2i, 3h were reported previously.6
Large scale preparation of 1-Chloro-2-diphenylphosphinoethane was used according to a
previously reported procedure.7 P, S ligands 1a-1d were found to be stable towards oxidation of
the phosphine both when stored as solids and in solution under ambient conditions over normal
reaction periods (at least 3 weeks via 31P{1H} NMR). For Pt(II) complexes with carbon-based
ligands (1e-1i) NMR data was obtained in situ from reactions conducted in CD2Cl2. Unless
otherwise noted, all yields for Pt(II) complexes are 100%, as observed from 31P NMR. For all
air-sensitive manipulations outlined below either Vacuum Atmospheres Nexus N2-filled glove
box or proper Schlenk techniques were employed. Analytical thin layer chromatography (TLC)
was performed using glass plates pre-coated with silica gel (0.25 mm, 60 Å pore size) with a
fluorescent indicator (254 nm). Visualization was accomplished with UV light and/or palladium
chloride (PdCl2) in ca. 6 M hydrochloric acid as a stain. All NMR spectra were recorded Bruker
Avance 400MHz equipped with a broadband probe. 1H and 13C{1H} NMR were referenced to

residual proton and carbon resonances in deuterated solvents. 11B/11B{1H} NMR was referenced
to a neat BF3-Et2O standard at 0.0 ppm. 77Se/77Se{1H} NMR was referenced to neat Me2Se at 0.0
ppm. 31P/31P{1H} NMR was referenced to the aqueous solution of 85% H3PO4 at 0.0 ppm. 195Pt
NMR was referenced to the aqueous solution of Na2PtCl6; short pulse sequence and relaxation
delays (~ 0.1 – 0.2 sec) were generally used. Electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectra were
recorded on an Agilent 6210 LC/MS-TOF mass spectrometer with ESI source. Elemental
analyses (C, H, N) were performed by Quantitative Technologies (Intertek), Whitehouse, NJ.

B. General procedure for synthesis of ligands 1a, 1c, 1d, 1e and 1f:
To a stirring solution of thiol (5 mmol) in 30 mL of dry acetonitrile under nitrogen was slowly
added potassium tert-butoxide (KtBuO) (0.57 g, 5.1 mmol). The reaction mixture was left
stirring for 5 minutes, after which 1-Chloro-2-diphenylphosphinoethane (1.25 g, 5 mmol) was
added and the reaction was left stirring for 12 hours at room temperature. All further
manipulations were performed in the air. The solution was filtered through a fine fritted funnel
filled with a layer of Celite™ and the solvent was removed under vacuum. The residue was
chromatographed on silica column with dichloromethane/hexanes mixtures followed by
recrystallization from cold pentane (-20 ˚C) to afford analytically pure ligands as crystalline
white solids.

D. General procedure for addition of 1 equivalent of P, S ligand to Pt(cod)Cl2.
A solution of ligand (0.125 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (5 mL) was added slowly dropwise to a solution of
[Pt(cod)Cl2] (47 mg, 0.125 mmol, 1 eq.) in CH2Cl2 (5 mL) at room temperature. The solution

E. General procedure for preparation of bisligated complexes.
A solution of P,S ligand (0.125 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (3 mL) was added slowly dropwise to a
solution of mono addition products (section 1D) at room temperature. The solution was allowed
to stir for 5 min, and a specific complexation motif of the P,S ligand was confirmed via in situ
31P/31P{1H} and other NMR techniques. 3a, 2b, 3c and 3d were purified as follows: solvent was
evaporated in vacuo and the resulting oily residues were triturated three times with hexanes (ca.
5 mL each time). The resulting oily substances were dried in vacuo to afford solid products,
which were subjected to analytical characterization. For complexes characterized by NMR in situ
CD2Cl2 was used instead of CH2Cl2.

I. Selenol Syntheses.
9-selenol-m-carborane (5a): To a solution of m-carborane (4.32 grams, 30 mmoles) in 75 mL of
dry dichloromethane under nitrogen AlCl3 (~ 4g) was added followed by the slow addition of
Se2Cl2 (3.45 grams, 15 mmoles). The reaction mixture was left stirring for 12 hours,
subsequently quenched with water and extracted with additional amounts of dichloromethane
and brine. The combined organic fractions were dried with Na2SO4, solvent was evaporated in
vacuo and the product was resuspended into anhydrous ethanol (100 mL). Portions of NaBH4 (~
2.4 grams total) were then slowly added to a vigorously stirring mixture for ~ 20 minutes
(Caution: it is recommended to perform this step in a large 500 mL Schlenk flask open to the air
under a positive stream of inert gas, to avoid any pressure build-ups from evolving H2 gas). The
reaction was subsequently slowly diluted with 100 mL of water, filtered through a layer of
Celite™ and acidified with a solution of 6M HCl (100 mL). The resulting solid was filtered out
of the solution on a glass frit and dried in vacuo. Crude selenol product was then passed through
a layer of silica with dichloromethane to afford the analytically pure selenol in 51% yield as a
yellowish solid. (Note: all purification and manipulations with 9-selenol-m-carborane were done
under ambient conditions, while long-term storage is recommended under inert atmosphere.)

1-selenol-m-carborane (5b): A Schlenk flask filled with a solution of m-carborane (5.76 grams,
40 mmoles) in 100 mL of dry diethyl ether and purged under nitrogen was cooled on ice bath.
To this mixture n-BuLi (18 mL, 2.5M, 45 mmoles) was added slowly dropwise and the reaction
mixture was stirred for 30 minutes at 0 oC; then brought to room temperature and stirred for an
additional 1 hour. To this mixture elemental selenium (3.16 grams, 40 mmoles) was added and
left stirring at room temperature for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was subsequently quenched
with methanol and evaporated the solvent was evaporated in vacuo. The resulting solid was
suspended in a mixture of methanol (150 mL) and concentrated HCl (~ 5 mL) and stirred under a
stream of air for 12 hours. This suspension was dried in vacuo, redissolved in EtOH (100 mL)
and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo and the resulting solid products were purified
via vacuum sublimation (to remove unreacted m-carborane, approx. 50 oC/1 mTorr). The
resulting yellow solid (diselenide) was reduced with NaBH4 by the same procedure to the one
used in the case of 9-selenol-m-carborane. This afforded analytically pure 1-selenol-m-carborane
in 38% yield. (Note: all purification and manipulations with 9-selenol-m-carborane were done
under ambient conditions, while long-term storage is recommended under inert atmosphere.)

4. Computational details.
Mulliken charges for ligands 1a-1i and NMR shielding tensors for 5a-b were obtained from DFT calculations based on the geometry-optimized structures with the ADF 2009.01 GUI. 1a, 1c and 1d were optimized from the crystallographically determined structures. Structures of 1b, 1e-1i and 5a-b were constructed in the ADF 2009.01 GUI before optimization. The optimization used basis sets containing triple-ζ functions with four polarization function (QZ4P), the local density approximation of Becke12 and Lee-Yang-Parr13 (B3LYP) with the associated default exchange and correlation corrections, and the density functional methods available in the Amsterdam Density Functional (ADF2009.01) suite on a 16-core Parallel Quantum Solutions (PQS) computational cluster (http://www.pqs-chem.com). Relativistic corrections used ZORA (zero-order relativistic approximation), and core electrons were unrestricted. Chemical shielding tensors for the 77Se nuclei were calculated from the geometry-optimized structures of 5a and 5b by the GIAO method using the ADF package (Me2Se was used as a computational reference). Becke and Lee-Yang-Parr (BLYP) generalized gradient approximation (CGA) was used for the exchange-correlation functional.
