“…5 These complexes have been prepared from the reaction of metal carbonylates with N,N-dimethylthiocarbamoyl chloride, Me 2 NC(=S)Cl, via nucleophilic displacement of chloride, 6 nucleophilic attack by an amine on the electrophilic thiocarbonyl complex, 7 electrophilic attack at a coordinated isothiocyanate, 8 reaction of hydrosulfide with haloaminocarbene 9 or isonitrile 10 ligands, cleavage of the dithiocarbamate ligand, 11 or C-H activation of thioformamides. 12 Oxidative addition 13 of both chloride and N,Ndimethylthiocarbamoyl ligands to the metal complex are most generally used and relevant to the work described herein.…”
