Thiocarbonyl complexes structure

Addition of alkylthiolates to porphyrin-iron-carbene complexes immediately gave new complexes characterized by their hyperporphyrin spectra [100]. Similar spectra were obtained with the analogous iron thiocarbonyl complexes [103], suggesting that these complexes have similar electronic structures. 

An example of thione coordination is demonstrated with the thiocarbonyl donor ligand 2,6-dimethyl-4H-pyran-4-thione, that gives a complex with zinc chloride of the form ZnL2Cl2-The crystal structure shows the zinc is tetrahedrally coordinated by two chloride and two sulfur donors and the compound was further studied by 3H NMR and IR spectroscopy.573 Both monomeric and dimeric heterocyclic thione complexes have been formed with zinc.5 4,575... 

Upon acylation of the copper complex with benzoyl chloride the corresponding 5-benzoylthio-1,2,3,4-thiatriazole is formed. The reaction product is (apparently) incorrectly assigned by the authors to 4-benzoyl-1,2,3,4-thiatriazole-5-thione based upon comparison with the product obtained from direct acylation of thiatriazol-5-thiol and citation of the older incorrect structure assignments. The thiothiatriazolato-copper(I) complexes are formulated as Cu-N(4) complexes. However, this assignment is based upon an IR band at 1200 cm attributed to a thiocarbonyl group, again upon comparison with the older literature. Further characterization therefore seems necessary. 

The intermediate cyclooctene complex appears to be more reactive with respect to CS coordination and more sensitive to oxidation when the arene ring bears electron-withdrawing groups (e.g., C02CH3). Dicarbonyl(methyl rj6-benzoate)-thiocarbonyl)chromium is air stable in the solid state and reasonably stable in solution.9 The infrared spectrum exhibits metal carbonyl absorptions at 1980 and 1935 cm"1 and a metal thiocarbonyl stretch at 1215 cm"1 (Nujol) (these occur at 1978, 1932, and 1912 cm"1 in CH2C12 solution).10 Irradiation of the compound in the presence of phosphite or phosphine leads to slow substitution of CO by these ligands, whereas the CS ligand remains inert to substitution. The crystal structure has been published."... 

Insertion of imsymmetrical heterocumulenes such as 0=C=X (X = S, NR), into an N-Si bond can produce two different constitutional isomers [8]. In the case of compound 1 and X = NR, R = alkyl or aryl, there is rapid insertion into both N-Si functions and the resulting situation is extremely complex with respect to the configurational (0,N-silylation) and conformational isomerism [5, 8, 10]. In contrast, 0=C=S inserts rapidly into only one N-Si bond of 1, there is no evidence for any second insertion even after several days. The formation of small amounts of pyrazine as oxidation product even under strictly anaerobic conditions suggests some electron transfer reactivity. Spectroscopic [10] and especially the structural evidence given below show that of the two conceivable constitutional isomers [11] of the insertion reaction only the 0-Si bonded species 2 with intact thiocarbonyl function is formed. 

The first example of a four-electron donor, side-on bridging thiocarbonyl, [HB(pz)jJ-(CO)2W(Tj -CS)Mo(CO) (indenyl), has been reported. Draw the structure of this complex. Why is the bridging CS group in this complex called side-on instead of semibridging (See Doyle, R. A. Daniels, L. M. . Angelici, R. J. Stone, F. G. A. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1989. Ill, 4995-4997.)...
