has allowed us to predict the coordination behavior of dithiolene
[M(SC6H4S)2]2– (M
= Ni, Pd, Pt) entities, giving rise to the first organometallic polymers
{[K2(μ-H2O)2][Ni(SC6H4S)2]}n and {[K2(μ-H2O)2(thf)]2[K2(μ-H2O)2(thf)2][Pd3(SC6H4S)6]}n by one-pot reactions of the corresponding d10 metal
salts, 1,2-benzenedithiolene, and KOH. The polymers are based on σ,π
interactions between potassium atoms and [M(SC6H4S)2]2– (M = Ni, Pd) entities. In contrast,
only σ interactions are observed when the analogous platinum
derivative is used instead, yielding the coordination polymer {[K2(μ-thf)2][Pt(SC6H4S)2]}n.
