Thiophosgene is one of the principal C=S building blocks in synthetic chemistry. At room temperature, thiophosgene is a red liquid. While its properties in the liquid and gaseous states are well known, a comprehensive characterization of thiophosgene in its solid state is presented here.

Reactivity studies of corresponding organosilicon sulfide clusters towards copper and silver complexes indicate a replacement of exactly one of the organosilicon groups with a metal complex fragment to form [(EtPAg)(PhSi)S] (1) and [Na(thf)][(MePCu)(PhSi)S] (2)-in striking contrast to reactions of organotin chalcogenide clusters, which are more significantly and less systematically re-organized. The silicon compounds are thus more suited for controlled modifications of their geometric and electronic structures.
