The reaction of is(1,2-diphenyl-1,2-ethylenedithiolato)nickel(II), Ni(
S(2)C(2)Ph(2))(2), with diazomethane affords a 1:1 methylene adduct, N
i[CH2(S(2)C(2)Ph(2))(2)] (2), which is identified as a nickel(II) comp
lex of cis-(methylenethio)stilbenethiol (3). Ligand 3 cyclodimerizes,
on decomposition of 2 or by reaction of 2 with 2,2'-bipyridyl, to yiel
d -tetraphenyl-1,3,6,8-tetrathia-4,9-cyclodecadiene.
