Abstract

Four In(III) xanthate complexes, [In(S₂COR)₃] where R = Me, Et, iPr and sBu, respectively, were synthesized, characterized and subsequently used as single source molecular precursors via a solventless thermolysis route to obtain indium sulfide materials. By choice of precursor and reaction temperature crystalline powders of tetragonal In₂S₃, cubic In₂S₃ and cubic In_2.77S₄ were acquired. The phase identification and purity were conducted through examination of the experimental powder X-ray diffraction patterns relative to the simulated patterns for single X-ray crystal diffraction.
