The title compound, [AuCl(C25H22NPS)], crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit in which the thiophene fragments are disordered over two sets of sites with 0.537 (10):0.463 (10) and 0.701 (9):0.299 (9) occupancy ratios. In both cases, the thiophene ring is rotated by approximately 180° for the second component. Important geometrical parameters include Au—P = 2.235 (2) and 2.237 (2) Å, Au—Cl = 2.286 (2) and 2.292 (2) Å, and P—Au—Cl = 177.39 (8) and 172.63 (7)°. Weak intermolecular C—HCl interactions are observed in the crystal structure.

The crystal structure of the title compound, [PtCl2(C25H22NPS)]·0.5CH2Cl2, was determined to establish the coordination properties of the (phosphanyl)benzylidene–methanamine ligand to platinum. In the unit cell two molecules of cis-[PtCl2(C25H22NPS)] are accompanied by a dichloromethane solvent molecule. The square-planar Pt2+ coordination sphere is slightly distorted with the bidentate ligand coordinated via the P and the amine N atoms, and the Cl atoms located cis at the two remaining coordination sites. Parts of the thiophene ring and the solvate molecule were modeled as disordered with occupancy ratios of 0.55 (2):0.45 (2) and 0.302 (10):0.198 (10), respectively. Weak C—HCl interactions stabilize the crystal packing.

The title compound, [PdCl2(C21H33P)2], forms a monomeric complex with a trans-square-planar coordination geometry about the PdII atom which lies on an inversion centre. The Pd—P bond lengths are 2.3760 (13) Å, while the Pd—Cl bond lengths are 2.3172 (14) Å. The observed structure was found to be closely related to that of trans-dichloridobis[dicyclohexyl(phenyl)phosphane-κP]palladium(II), [PdCl2{P(C6H11)2(C6H5)}2] [Burgoyne et al. (2012). Acta Cryst. E68, m404].

The title compound C18H16N2S2, crystallizes with two independent half-molecules in the asymmetric unit, in one of which the thiophene rings are disordered in a 0.67:0.33 ratio. Each independent molecule lies across a crystallographic centre of symmetry. The dihedral angle between central (half) benzene ring and the thiophene ring is 11.82°.
