While the protonated dithiadiazolyl compound, PhCNSSN
H
1 is unknown, oxidation of [Pd(dppe)2] with
[PhC
NSSN
]2 yields the monometallic complex
[Pd{SNC(Ph)NS-S,S′}(dppe)] 2 which can be
oxidized with [NO][BF4] in the presence of moisture to yield
the dimetallic complex
[Pd2{µ-SNC(Ph)N(H)S-S,S′}(dppe)
2][BF4]2 3 which contains coordinated 1;
the X-ray crystal structure of 3 is reported as its solvate
3·3CDCl3.
