Pt(II) and Pd(II) Pyrrolidine-Dithiocarbamates Investigated by XPS

In the present contribution, a series of four metal dithiocarbamates, namely 1-pyrrolidinecarbodithioate methyl ester (PyDTM) of Pd(II) and Pt(II), PtCl2(PyDTM), PtBr2(PyDTM), PdBr2(PyDTM), PdCl2(PyDTM), were analysed by x-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). Besides the wide scan spectra, detailed spectra for the C 1s, O 1s, N 1s, S 2s, S 2p, Pt 4f (for Pt-based compounds), Pd 3d (for Pd-based compounds), Cl 2p (for Cl containing compounds), Br 3p (for Br containing compounds) regions were acquired and the related data are presented and discussed.
