Disulfides
Key points: The 4d- and 5d-series metals often form disulfides with alternating layers of metal ions and sulfide ions; binary disulfides of the early d metals often have a layered structure, whereas Fe2+ and many of the later d-metal disulfides contain discrete S2-2 ions. The disulfides of the d metals fall into two broad classes (Table 19.7). One class consists of layered compounds with either the CdI2 or the MoS2 structure; the other consists of compounds containing discrete S2-2 groups, the pyrites and marcasite structures. The layered disulfides are built from a sulfide layer, a metal layer, and then another sulfide layer (for example, Fig. 19.14). These sandwiches stack together in the crystal with sulfide layers in one slab adjacent to a sulfide layer in the next. Clearly, this crystal

structure is not consistent with a simple ionic model and its formation is a sign of covalence in the bonds between the soft sulfide ion and d-metal cations. The metal ion in these layered structures is surrounded by six S atoms. Its coordination environment is octahedral in some cases (such as PtS2 , which adopts the CdI2 structure shown in Fig. 19.14) and trigonal prismatic in others (MoS2). The layered MoS2 structure is favoured by S-S bonding as indicated by short S-S distances within each of the MoS2 slabs. The common occurrence of the trigonal-prismatic structure in many of these compounds is in striking contrast to the isolated metal complexes, where the octahedral arrangement of ligands is by far the most common. Some of the layered metal sulfides readily undergo intercalation reactions in which ions or molecules penetrate between adjacent sulfide layers (Section 24.10). Compounds containing discrete S2 2 ions adopt the pyrite or marcasite structure (Fig. 19.15). The stability of the formal S2-2 ion in metal sulfides is much greater than that of the O2-2 ion in peroxides, and there are many more metal sulfides in which the anion is S2-2 than there are peroxides.
