Reactions of the ruthenium azide complex 1 with alkyl isothiocyanates give novel ruthenium thiotetraazapentalenedithione complexes 3a − c containing a hypervalent sulfur atom. The ligand, bound through one sulfur atom, is derived from three isothiocyanate molecules and one nitrogen atom from an azide ion. The synthesis and structural determination of 3a − c , as well as a possible mechanism for their formation is described. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2004)
