Notes:
Molecules containing dimetallated hydrocarbyl groupings are of great chemical interest[1-3]. These groupings often represent intermediates in important catalytic processes[4]. Recently, we have shown that substituted dimetallated olefins can be formed by alkyne insertion into the metal-metal bonds of certain dinuclear complexes[2,5]. Complexes having dimetallated hydrocarbyl groups combined with heteroatoms are quite rare[6]. Herein is described the formation of a dimetallathioimidate grouping by the insertion of an organic isothiocyanates into an unsupported metal-metal bond. Organic isothiocyanates are useful reagents in organic synthesis[7], but the organometallic chemistry of these molecules is not yet well developed[8].
