Abstract Novel chiral copper(I) and silver(I) metal complexes were synthesized from the reaction of chiral 1,3‐thiazolidine‐2‐thione ligand with CuCl and AgOAc in dichloromethane in the presence of Et 3 N and DMAP at room temperature. Their unique crystal structures were determined by X‐ray analysis. Four Cu(I) atoms and four 1,3‐thiazolidine‐2‐thione ligands form a butterfly‐type metal cluster. Six Ag(I) atoms and six 1,3‐thiazolidine‐2‐thione ligands form another butterfly‐type cluster. Chirality 15:605–608, 2003. © 2003 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
