Metal-bound thiolates show S-based reactivity including alkylation, oxygenation, and metalation. We have studied the donating ability of a series of square planar,NiN2S2 complexes by reporter units such as tungsten carbonyls and dinitrosyl iron complexes. In this way nickel cis-dithiolates may be described as metallo ligands, comparable to diphenylphosphinoethane or bipyridine. Herein we describe the products of reaction of [NiN2S2 ]n (n = 0 or 2-) complexes with Ph3PAuCl, with expectation of a thiolate S-donor to...
