The reduction of (Ph3P)AuCl with NaBH4in the presence of HSC(SiMe3)3, leads to one of the largest metalloid gold clusters: Au108S24(PPh3)16(1). Within 1 an octahedral Au44core of gold atoms arranged as in Au metal is surrounded by 48 oxidized Au atoms of an Au48S24shell, a novel building block in gold chemistry. The protecting Au48S24shell is completed by additional 16 Au(PPh3) units, leading to a complete protection of the gold core. Within 1 the Au–Au distances get more molecular on going from the center to the ligand shell. Cluster 1 represents novel structural motives in the field of metalloid gold clusters which also are partly typical for metal atoms in metalloid clusters: MnRm(n>m).

Bistrisulfane (1) is obtained from tris(trimethylsilyl)methyllithium and sulfur with subsequent oxidation by oxygen or from tris(trimethylsilyl)methanethiol with sulfur dichloride.The solid trisulfane contains a transoid (helical) C-S-S-S-C backbone without severe distortion from steric strain.Desulfuration of the byproduct bistetrasulfane (2) with mercury provides 1, but further desulfuration of 1 to bisdisulfane (3) has not been achieved. 3 was isolated after oxidation of lithium tris(trimethylsilyl)methanethiolate with bromine. 3 contains a trans-C-S-S-C moiety with an unusually long S-S bond (210-211 pm).The less crowded bis(triphenylmethyl)disulfane (4) contains a "normal" C-S-S-C moiety with anticlinal conformation (torsion angle -110 deg).

SERENDIPITOUS SYNTHESIS OF ALKYL TRIMETHYLSILYLDITHIOFORMATES BY TRAPPING OF BIS(TRIMETHYLSILYL)THIONE WITH ALKANESULFENIC ACIDS. SYNTHESIS OF BIS- AND TRIS(TRIMETHYLSILYL)METHANETHIOLS.

Tris(trimethylsilyl)methanethiol, prepared from tris(trimethylsilyl)methane, can be easily converted into bis(trimethylsilyl)methanethiol and this to bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl alkanethiosulfinate esters; the latter upon heating afford alkyl trimethylsilyldithioformates via bis(trimethylsilyl)thione, which can be trapped with dienes.
