Antimony and bismuth dithiocarboxylates: Synthesis, characterization, crystal structures of [Sb(S2Ctol)3] and [Bi(S2CPh)3] and their transformation to polycrystalline M2S3 (M=Sb, Bi)

Formation of Group 11 Bismuth Sulfide Nanoparticles Using Bismuth Dithioates under Mild Conditions

“…We have since discovered that crude bismite (Bi 2 O 3 ) can be substituted for bismuthinite through this process, thereby reducing the reaction time from 4 hours to 1 hour. Crystalline Bi 2 S 3 nanorods can then be easily generated from Bi(S 2 CAr) 3 upon mild solution decomposition …”

Synthesis, Structures, and Multinuclear NMR Spectra of Tin(II) and Lead(II) Complexes of Tellurium-Containing Imidodiphosphinate Ligands: Preparation of Two Morphologies of Phase-Pure PbTe from a Single-Source Precursor

“…Metal chalcogenides incorporating main-group metals such as PbS and CuInSe 2 are used as detection elements in infrared sensors and as photovoltaic materials in solar cells, respectively. The groups of O’Brien and Jain have developed various SSPs to these types of materials and utilized them for the deposition of thin films of the heavy p-block chalcogenides PbE, In 2 E 3 , , and Bi 2 E 3 (E = S, Se). Due to these advances, coupled with the increasing interest in tellurium-containing materials, coordination complexes of analogous Te-centered ligands are currently being investigated as SSPs to metal telluride solid-state materials .…”

Nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony and bismuth

“…95 A number of antimony and bismuth thiocarboxylates have been reported, pyrolysis of these species has been shown to result in the formation of sulphides M 2 S 3 (M = Sb, Bi). 96 The preparation of bismuth complexes of the cyclen ligand 90 have been reported. 97 In the solid state, a cationic BiCl 2 unit has been shown to be coordinated to the four nitrogen atoms of the cyclen ring and two of the pyridine groups, via nitrogen.…”
