Reactivity of bis(thiophosphinoyl)methane CH2(PPh2=S)2 towards sulphur and ZnMe2 : synthesis and characterization of a bis(thiophosphinoyl)(thiolate)methanide Dianionic Ligand [(S)C(PPh2=S)2]2-.

The zinc derivative of the novel bis(thiophosphinoyl)(thiolate)methanide dianionic ligand [(S)C(PPh2=S)2]2- (3) has been synthesized and structurally characterized. Treatment of [CH2(PPh2=S)2] (1) with dimethyl zinc in refluxing toluene gave air-sensitive [{HC(PPh2=S)2}2Zn] (5) via elimination of me...
