Abstract

Abstract A comparative study of the coordination modes of a (thiophosphinoyl)(trimethylsilyl) methanide (1–· Li+) and bis (thiophosphinoyl) methanide (2–· Li+) ligand with Rh I was carried out. Several complexes were synthesized and characterized. For 1–· Li+, C~ S coordination is forced, whereas for 2–· Li+, S~ S and C~ S coordination can be achieved. In one case, a dynamic equilibrium between these two modes of coordination was observed. ...
