Both complexes crystallize in the monoclinic system. The central Zn(II) ion has a distorted tetrahedral coordination in both compounds. In 1 the dithiocarbimato ligand coordinates via two S atoms while in 2 the trithiocarbimato ligand coordinates via S and N atoms. Both complexes were also characterized by IR, 1 H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopies. Compound 2 is the first example of a zinc(II)-trithiocarbimato complex.pdfengElsevier Ltd.DithiocarbimateTrithiocarbimateZinc complexesCrystal structureArtigo
