Abstract

The dimeric complex [Mn₂(μ-PyS)₂(CO)₆] (<b>1</b>) reacts with 2 molar equivalents of diethylenetriamine (dien) to give the monomeric complex [Mn(η¹-pyS)( dien)(CO)₃] (<b>2</b>) in which the pyridine-2-thiolato group coordinates to manganese through the S-atom as a two-electron donor ligand. The complex has been characterized by elemental analysis and IR, PMR and mass spectroscopy.
