Abstract

The synthesis, properties and reactivity of group 11 organotin sulfide clusters [(R(1)Sn)4(SnCl)2(MPPh3)2S8] (M = Cu, Ag), [(R(3)Sn)10Ag10S20], and [(R(1,3)Sn)2(AuPPh3)2S4] with covalently bound, carbonyl or hydrazine-terminated ligands R(1) = CMe2CH2C(Me)O or R(3) = CMe2CH2C(Me)NNH2 are reported.
