Abstract

Copper diaryl-dithiocarbamate (DTC) complexes have been prepared including Cu(ii) species, [Cu(S₂CNAr₂)₂], and Cu(i) species [Cu{S₂CN(p-tolyl)₂}]_n and [Cu{S₂CN(p-tolyl)₂}(PPh₃)₂] with some examples being characterised by single crystal diffraction. CV measurements show that, like the dialkyl-analogues, [Cu(S₂CNAr₂)₂] can be both oxidised and reduced, but while oxidation is reversible, reduction is irreversible and results from loss of a DTC ligand. Both Cu(ii) and Cu(i) complexes [Cu{S₂CN(p-MeC₆H₄)₂}₂] and [Cu{S₂CN(p-MeC₆H₄)₂}]_n have been used as single source precursors to prepare covellite (CuS) or digenite (Cu_1.8S) nanoparticles in oleylamine.
