Activation of CS2 by a "masked" terminal nickel sulfide

The "masked" terminal nickel sulfide complexes [K(L)][(L(tBu))Ni(II)(S)] (L(tBu) = {(2,6-(i)Pr2C6H3)NC((t)Bu)}2CH, L = 18-crown-6, 2,2,2-cryptand) activate CS2 to give the trithiocarbonate products [(L(tBu))Ni(II)(S,S:κ2-CS3)](-) or [(S,S:κ2-CS3)Ni(II){S,S:κ2-CS2(L(tBu))}](-), further conf...

Description
Summary:The "masked" terminal nickel sulfide complexes [K(L)][(L(tBu))Ni(II)(S)] (L(tBu) = {(2,6-(i)Pr2C6H3)NC((t)Bu)}2CH, L = 18-crown-6, 2,2,2-cryptand) activate CS2 to give the trithiocarbonate products [(L(tBu))Ni(II)(S,S:κ2-CS3)](-) or [(S,S:κ2-CS3)Ni(II){S,S:κ2-CS2(L(tBu))}](-), further confirming the nucleophilicity of the sulfide (S(2-)) ligand in these complexes.
