title: Dithiocarbamyl-substituted diphosphanylmethanide complexes of manganese(I): a new type of ambivalent metalloligands.
abstract: The diphosphanylmethanide complex [Mn(CO)4[(PPh2)2C-H]] promotes S-S bond breaking in tetramethylthiuram disulfide affording [Mn(CO)4[(PPh2)2C-S-C(S)NMe2)]] (2), which proved to be a valuable host for binding cations through the methanide carbon atom and the thiocarbonyl group, allowing the controlled synthesis of heterometallic compounds.
