Carbon disulfide is cleaved by n ‐propyldiphenylphosphine and nickel(II) bromide in a one‐step process, to form two unprecedented complexes: orange, [Ni(S 2 C 2 (P n PrPh 2 ) 2 )Br(P n PrPh 2 )]Br⋅CS 2 ( 1 ) and purple [Ni{η 2 ‐SC(P n PrPh 2 ) 2 }Br(P n PrPh 2 )]Br⋅0.5CS 2 ( 2 ). Orange ( 1 ) contains a dithiolene‐related ligand that results from carbon–carbon bond formation, while purple ( 2 ) contains a remarkable ligand in which two n ‐propyldiphenylphosphine molecules have added to a carbon atom of a CS unit that is coordinated to nickel.
