“…[7] In transition metal complexes, the dithiocarbamate group is usually coordinated to a late transition metal in a kS,kS'-chelating mode, forming stable square-planar (Ni, Pd, Pt, Cu(II), Au(III)), octahedral (Co-Ir), or polynuclear (Cu(I), Ag(I), Au(I)) complexes. [8] The carboxylate groups are attached to an oxophilic transition or main group metal ion, [4][5][6]9] protonated, [4,[10][11][12] or esterified. [1,2] Additionally, main group metal DTCCs are known, e. g. derivatives of β-, γ-, and δ-amino acids with tetravalent tin, in which both the O and S donor groups are metalcoordinated.…”
