The N‐heterocyclic carbene NHC/thione ligand precursors 1‐[(3‐R‐2‐thioxo‐2 H ‐imidazol‐1‐yl)methyl]‐3‐R‐2 H ‐imidazol‐2‐ium hexafluorophosphate, [HCS R ]PF 6 (R = methyl, benzyl) have been prepared and used in the synthesis of the complexes [Rh(CS R )(cod)][PF 6 ] (R = methyl, benzyl; cod = 1,5‐cyclooctadiene). The coordination and structural features of the novel ditopic NHC/thione ligands have been explored.
