The formation and structural aspects of some metal complexes of thiosalicylic acid (TSA) were studied. The μ‐bridging tetra‐coordinated Ru complex, [Ru(C 6 H 4 (CO 2 )(μ‐S)(H 2 O)] 2 ( 1 ) was formed by hydrothermal reaction of TSA with RuCl 3 . The complexes [ M (dtdb)(phen)(H 2 O)] n ( 2 – 4 ) ( M = Zn II , Co II , Ni II , dtdb = 2,2′‐dithiodibenzoate anion, phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline) were obtained by the slow diffusion technique and the in situ S–S bond formation was confirmed by elemental, spectral and X‐ray analysis. Reaction of TSA with CuCl 2 and 2,2′‐bipyridine (bipy) under the slow diffusion technique yielded the dimer [Cu(tdb)(bipy)] ( 5 ) (tdb = thiodibenzoic acid), where the in situ generation of 2,2′‐thiodibenzoic acid was observed.
