Abstract

In this chapter, we review dithiocarboxylic acid salts. Methods of synthesizing these salts are reviewed, such as insertion of carbon disulfide into the metal-carbon bond, reaction of a dithiocarboxylic acid with a transition metal salt in the presence or absence of a base, ligand exchange of dithiocarboxylato metal or ammonium salts with another metal complex bearing a leaving group, and so on. The dithiocarboxylic acid complexes exhibit a variety of coordination styles that have been characterized by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Spectroscopic (IR, 13C, and UV-Vis) properties of the salts are summarized. The reactivities, structures, properties, characteristics and applications of each salt are discussed in detail for the salts of most elements (except for carbon).Dithiocarboxylate saltsDithiocarboxylato complexDithiocarboxylic acidThiocarbonyl groupCoordination
