Abstract:Dithiolate tin(iv) complexes [SnMe(2)(SS)] (SS = 4,5-dimercapto-1,3-dithiol-2-thione, dmit; 1,2-benzene dithiolate, bdt; and 3,4-toluene dithiolate, tdt) are used as transmetallating agents in the reaction with nickel derivatives [NiBrR'(PR(3))(2)] (R' = mesitylene (Mes) and 2,4,6-trisisopropylphenyl (Trip), and PR(3) = PPh(3) and PPh(2)Me). The reaction results in the isolation of different complexes with a great variety of stoichiometries, including mono-, di- and trinuclear nickel complexes with the general… Show more
“…The µ 3 -coordination of the dithiolene ligand, in which the ligand largely retains its planarity, has been observed previously in mixed-metal clusters by Nishihara 82,83. Moreover two structurally very similar benzenedithiolate clusters, [Ni 3 (µ-bdt) 3 (PPh 3 ) 2 ] and [Ni 3 (µ-bdt) 3 (PPh 2 Me) 2 ], both of which also feature relatively short Ni-Ni distances, have been reported in the literature 84,85. page 18…”
The dithiolene transfer reaction between the nickel bis(dithiolene) complex [Ni(S 2 C 2 Ph 2) 2 ] and iron carbonyls has been reinvestigated and the conditions for the production of the dinuclear product [Fe 2 (µ-S 2 C 2 Ph 2)(CO) 6 ] have been optimised. Interception of a purple intermediate, thought to be [Fe(CO) 3 (S 2 C 2 Ph 2)], in the reaction of [Fe(CO) 5 ] with [Ni(S 2 C 2 Ph 2) 2 ] by the addition of PPh 3 affords the new dark blue mononuclear complex [Fe(CO) 2 (PPh 3)(S 2 C 2 Ph 2)] in good yield. The fate of the nickel dithiolene fragments in these reactions has also been established by crystallographic characterisation of the hexamer [{Ni(S 2 C 2 Ph 2)} 6 ] and the trinuclear cluster [Ni 3 (µ-S 2 C 2 Ph 2) 3 (PPh 3) 2 ]. The substitution reactions of [Fe 2 (µ-S 2 C 2 Ph 2)(CO) 6 ] with PPh 3 in the presence of Me 3 NO to give monosubstituted [Fe 2 (µ-S 2 C 2 Ph 2)(CO) 5 (PPh 3)] and disubstituted [Fe 2 (µ-S 2 C 2 Ph 2)(CO) 4 (PPh 3) 2 ] are also reported.

The unusual synthesis of the dimeric dithiolene complex [(PPh 3 )Pd(ethylene-1,2dithiolate)] 2 (1), containing the simplest dithiolene ligand, has been achieved through the reaction between tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 . The complex shows a folded structure in the solid state, according to single crystal X-ray analysis performed on crystals grown from two different system solvents and conditions, with a central [Pd 2 S 2 ] ring folded about the SÁÁÁS hinge by 67.98. The optimized geometry at the DFT level is in excellent agreement with the experimental structure. Moreover, TD-DFT calculations allowed the assignment of the low energy band arising at 576 nm to the HOMO!LUMO transition, between frontier orbitals having mixed metal and dithiolene character.
“…Of the latter, 31 hits are for C-S bicyclic compounds and four hits are for monocyclic C-S crystal structures. Monocyclic structures related to the title compound are bis(5-(mesitylthio)-1,3-dithiole-2thione)-4,4 0 -disulfide dihydrate (LOBXEF; Cerrada et al, 1999) Cerrada et al, 2009) and 4,5-bis(2,4-dinitrophenylthio)-1,3-dithiole-2-thione (YISBOR; Qi et al, 1994 and YISBOR10;Qu et al, 1995). The dihedral angles in YISBOR/YISBOR10 and LOBXEF are similar to those exhibited by the title compound, unlike in NUMXOJ, which is completely different.…”
The reaction between [TBA]2[Zn(dmit)2] and 3-chloro-2,4-pentanedione yielded single crystals of the title compound, (3E,3′E)-3,3′-[(2-sulfanylidene-1,3-dithiole-4,5-diyl)bis(sulfanediyl)]bis(4-hydroxypent-3-en-2-one), C13H14O4S5, after solvent evaporation. The title compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group P\overline{1} with two molecules related by an inversion center present in the unit cell. The central thione ring moiety contains a carbon–carbon double bond covalently linked to two sulfoxide substituents located outside of the plane of the ring. The S—C—C—S torsion angles are −176.18 (8) and −0.54 (18)°. Intramolecular hydrogen bonds occur within the two dione substituents (1.67–1.69 Å). Adjacent asymmetric units are linked by C—H...S (2.89–2.90 Å), S...S [3.569 (1) Å] and O...H [2.56–2.66 Å between non-stacked thione rings] short contacts.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
