Talk:Metal dithiolene complex

For those considering or planning a major revision on dithiolenes, I encourage or invite discussing thoughts in advance as some wikipedians are expert in this area.--Smokefoot 13:04, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dithiones are extremely rare

The current graphics are misleading, suggesting that dithiones are important. Examples? --Smokefoot 17:51, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've found eight dithione-metal complexes on the CSD. But these may just be the resonance structures chosen by the authors. Did you mean examples of uncomplexed dithiones?

I wrote that message a long time ago, but 1,2-dithiones are still unknown I am pretty sure. Conceivably things like (R₂NC⁶H⁴CS)² is known or could be made. On the other hand zillion dithiolene complexes are known, some of which are probably described as dithione complexes. Not a very fruitful area of reading, you'll find.--Smokefoot (talk) 22:16, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dithiolate?

We need a section (or another article?) that explains exactly what is a dithiolATE. This article seems to be the closest and it does use the term dithiolate, but it is not too clear exactly what structure is meant. Dirac66 (talk) 11:23, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
