Dithiocarbamates, R<sub>2</sub>NC(S)S-, are a well established class of ligands which form stable complexes with most transition metals. Modification of the ligands can lead to significant changes in structure and behavior of the complexes. Synthesis of novel amines with secondary functionalization (halides, carbonyls) provide complexes with different chemical and biological properties as well as the possibility of further structural modifications. Condensation of primary amines with aldehydes gives secondary amines. Reaction of these secondary amines with carbon disulfide provides the dithiocarbamate. This research focuses on the synthesis of unsymmetrical novel aryl and benzyl dithiocarbamates. Compounds are characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy.
