Electrochemical reduction of trimetallic [M(M′S4)2]2–ions (M = NiII, PdII, or PtII; M′= Mo or W)

Abstract
Trimetallic [M(M′S4)2]2– ions (M = NiII, PdII, or PtII; M′= Mo or W) exhibit reversible electrochemical reduction in nonaqueous solvents; the existence of formal monovalent (M = Ni or Pd) and zerovalent (M = Ni, Pd, or Pt) complexes is indicated.
