Preparation and Characterization of Group 14 Element bis(thiolate) Compounds and Evaluation of Their Potential as Molecular Precursors in the Low Temperature Syntheses of Binary Metal Sulfides

Abstract

Three isomeric lead bis(butylthiolate) and tin bis(butylthiolate) compounds have been prepared and characterized. Their solid state decomposition, and in the case of the lead bis(thiolate) compounds, their thermolyses in suspension in a high boiling hydrocarbon, have been studied. X-ray powder diffraction patterns and scanning electron micrographs of the obtained solid state material are discussed. Volatile co-products of the decomposition have been isolated and characterized. Group 14 thiolates, Lead sulfide, Tin sulfide.
