Symmetrical and unsymmetrical nickel(II) complexes of N-(dialkylcarbamothioyl)-nitro substituted benzamide as single-source precursors for deposition of nickel sulfide nanostructured thin films by AACVD

The nickel(II) complexes of various N-(dialkylcarbamothioyl)-nitro substituted benzamides have been synthesized and their single-crystal X-ray structures were determined. Hexagonal and rhombohedral systems of the millerite NiS and Ni17S18 phase were deposited by Aerosol Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition (AA-CVD) at 450 °C.
