Isolation, structure and spectroscopic characterization of silver complexes of the zwitterionic thiolate Tab: [Ag(Tab)2](PF6), {[Ag3(Tab)4](PF6)3·2DMF}n, and [Ag14(μ6-S)(Tab)12(PPh3)8](PF6)12(Tab=4-(trimethylammonio)benzenethiolate)

Assembly of a New Family of Mercury(II) Zwitterionic Thiolate Complexes from a Preformed Compound [Hg(Tab)2](PF6)2 [Tab = 4-(Trimethylammonio)benzenethiolate]

“…Treatment of a methanol solution of Hg(OAc) 2 with an acetonitrile solution of 2 equiv of TabHPF 6 resulted in a colorless solution, which was heated to 70 °C and stirred for 0.5 h. A standard workup afforded colorless plates of 1 in an almost quantitative yield (Scheme ). During the reaction, a strong smell of acetic acid was evolved out of the solution because TabHPF 6 has stronger acidity than acetic acid, and thus the liberation of acetic acid may be the driving force for this reaction 1 …”

“…On the other hand, we are interested in the preparation of metal thiolate complexes from an unique zwitterionic thiolate TabHPF 6 [TabH = 4-(trimethylammonio)benzenethiol] we carried out the reactions of Hg(OAc) 2 with TabHPF 6 and isolated a mononuclear mercury thiolate complex [Hg(Tab) 2 ](PF 6 ) 2 ( 1 ).…”

Octakis(μ3-tert-butylthiolato)bis(tert-butylthiolato)hexakis(1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one)-μ6-sulfido-hexabarium(II)

“…There have been numerous examples of high nuclearity transition metal clusters encapsulating S (Allen, 2002). Such SM 6 clusters have been reported for Fe (Zhang et al, 2002(Zhang et al, , 2003(Zhang et al, , 2004Zuo et al, 2003;Osterloh et al, 1999;Ohki et al, 2003), Cu (Wu, et al, 1988;Marsh, 1997;Hu, 2001;Lin et al, 2000a;Chen et al, 2003;Tang et al, 1993), Co (Shu et al, 1991), Zr (Fenske et al, 1991) and Ag (Chen et al, 2004;Lin et al, 1997;Matsumoto et al, 2000;Lin et al, 2000b;Jin et al, 1996), while SM 8 clusters have been reported for Rh (Vidal et al, 1978) and Cu (Lin et al, 1999;Huang et al, 1991;Dehnen & Fenske, 1996, Liu et al, 1995Fenske et al, 2004). With the exception of one report of an SLi 8 cluster (Banister et al, 1988), there has been no report of an SM x cluster involving a non-transition metal.…”

Formation and Structural Diversity of Organo‐Functionalized Tin–Silver Selenide Clusters

“…The [Ag 14 E 13 ] motif is well known for clusters with E=S, Se, and Te . However, in all of these reported compounds, the μ 3 ‐E atoms corresponding to the Se B sites are coordinated by terminal organic groups, whereas all of the Ag B atoms are coordinated by terminal phosphane ligands.…”
