Abstract

Bis (diethylmonothiocarbamato) complexes of cadmium (1) and zinc (2) were prepared by the reaction of sodium monothiocarbamate with cadmium acetate or zinc chloride. Compound 1 crystallises as clear needles and a single crystal X-ray analysis showed it to be monoclinic (space group C2/c, no. 15), a= 22.143 (2), b= 9.239 (2), c= 7.553 (3) Å, β= 101.41 (2)° and Z= 4. The coordination at the cadmium centre is distorted trigonal prismatic with ...
