Heterocyclic thiols and thiolates are specific structural motives that combine soft and hard ends while also possessing rich coordination chemistry according to their diverse modes of action. Metal complexes bearing heterocyclic thiols or their corresponding anions have expanded the research field and drawn more attention with a wide range of applications. We have designed various organoplatinum complexes with different oxidation states, containing several heterocyclic thiolate ligands. These Pt complexes were characterized by means of spectroscopic and analytical methods. The optical properties were measured at different conditions, and, for the rationalization of the results, density functional theory (DFT) studies were carried out. Some of reported organoplatinum complexes could be used for the construction of valuable organic bonds such as C–C.
