Scission precision : The combination of Lewis acidic and Lewis basic building blocks in copper( I ) thiolate clusters enables control of the thermal decomposition pathway in the design of new molecular precursors for Cu 2 S formation. After CS bond scission, large clusters with cuprous sulfide cores are isolated as intermediates and are structurally characterized (see scheme; hfa=hexafluoroacetylacetonate).
