Silver thiolate complexes

Figure 4 Comparison of copper and silver thiolate complexes of the same thiolate ligand and with the same formula unit. Perspective view of (a) [Cu(SC6H4-o-SiMe3)]i2 and (b) [ Ag(SC5H4-o-SiMe3) 4]2, highlighting the CU12S12 core and the fusing of two Ag4S4 units via Ag S secondary interactions (3.05...

Silver(I) trifluoromethanethiolate (AgSCF3) has been used to prepare trifluoromethyl aryl sulfides by reaction with iodide.996 A mixed silver-zinc thiolate complex [Ag4Zn2(SC6H2-Pr -2,4,6)6(OTf)2] has been prepared by reaction of AgOTf with Zn[N(TMS)2]2 in the presence of the thiol.99 Solid-state 109Ag NMR can be a sensitive environment probe for silver thiolates,998 overall for biological thiolates ligands as cysteine,999 or proteins such as metallothionein.1000,1001...

The possibility of synthesizing silver sulfide nanoclusters, as demonstrated with the formation of 18, was followed immediately by the report of the isolation and characterization of the mixed silver sulfide-thiolate complex [Ag7oSi6(SPh)34 (PhC02)4(triphos)4] (triphos = l,l,l-tris (disphenylphosphino)methyl ethane) [64]. This cluster is accessed using a combination of PhSSiMes, S(SiMe3)2 and... 

It has long been known that thiolate ligands (RS ), which are formally derived from thiols (RSH) by deprotonation, are well suited to form metal complexes (1). Specific reviews of this area have covered the structural chemistry of metal thiolates (la), the coordination chemistry of metal thiolates from a bioinorganic perspective (lb), transition metal thiolates (lc), and, most recently, early transition metal thiolates (Id). Because of potential thione-thiol tautomerism, a review dealing with complexes of heterocylic thione donors (le) is also relevant. This chapter concentrates on thiolate complexes of copper , lithium, and magnesium, but we also mention, for comparison or contrast, many related species of silver and gold and of some complexes that contain selenolate and tellurolate ligands. However, it should be emphasized that we have not attempted a comprehensive literature search outside the primary field of interest.

Ford and Vogler reported the photophysical properties of a hexanuclear copper(I) thiolate cluster [Cu (mtc) ] (13) and the related silver(I) complexes [86]. The copper complex shows an intense emission band at 706 nm (Xo = 0.99 ps) and 767 nm (Xq = 14.0 ps) in the solid state at 294 and 77 K, respectively. The emissive state has been suggested to derive from an admixture of LMCT [thiolate Cu ] and metal-centered d-s character. 

Other Applications. TBST is widely used as a thiolate ligand for the s)mthesis of various metal thiolates as exemplified by the formation of Zn(II) thiolate 31 (eq 13) and silver(II) complex 32 (eq 14). ...
