Abstract
The reaction of COS gas with a suspension of [M(OMe) 2] η (M = Mg and Ca) in methanol yields the insertion compounds, [M(OCSOMe) 2(MeOH) x ] η (M = Mg 1, x = 2; M CA, 2, x = 3 ) in high yield; the magnesium compound is polymeric, whilst X-ray crystallography reveals that the calcium complex 2 is a centrosymmetric dimer with eight coordinated calcium(II) ions and two distinct methylthiocarbonato (MTC) ligand coordinations modes, the structural framework being stabilised by an extensive network of hydrogen bonding.
