We have developed a robust synthetic method for the preparation of I-III binuclear complexes in excellent yields. The syntheses and characterization of binuclear I-III complexes composing the series (R3P)2ME(SEt)xCl4-x (R=Ph or Me; M=Cu or Ag; E=In, Ga or Al; 0 = x = 4) are described. Through thermal decomposition of these I-III binuclear complexes, high temperature phases of I-III-VI2 materials can be prepared.  The solid-state structures, spectroscopic features, and suitability of these compounds as molecular single source precursors for I-III-VI2 nanoparticles and related materials will be discussed.
