“Syntheses, X-ray Crystal Structures and Spectroscopic Properties of New Nickel Dithiolenes and Related Compounds”

The direct addition of nickel powder to the reaction mixtures of 1,3-dialkyl-4,5-dioxoimidazolidine-2-thione (1) with the thionation Lawesson reagent produces [NiII(R2timdt-)2] (R2timdt = 1,3-dialkylmidazolidine-2,4,5-trithione). These complexes belong to a new class of nickel−dithiolenes, showing remarkably high absorption (e ≈ 80 000 dm3 mol-1 cm-1, λ ≈ 1000 nm) in the near-infrared region (near-IR), accompanied by high photochemical stability that makes these complexes promising near-IR dyes. In the absence of nickel the reaction yields generally the compounds 4,5,6,7-tetrathiocino[1,2-b:3,4-b‘]diimidazolyl-1,3,8,10-tetraalkane-2,9-dithione (2) instead of the expected 1,3-dialkylimidazolidine-2,4,5-trithione. However, with bulky substituents on the nitrogen atoms, well-characterized reaction products have not been obtained until now. Only in the R = Pri case, the new tetrathiocino isomer (4,5,9,10-tetrathiocino[1,2-b:5,6-b‘]diimidazolyl-1,3,6,8-tetraisopropane-2,7-dithione (3) in trace amounts and the ...
