Formation of N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylformamidinium disulphide from the chemical and electrochemical oxidation of tetramethylthiourea : Vibrational spectra and crystal structure of the chloride dihydrate salt

The N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylformamidinium disulphide (TMFDS) was prepared from either the electro-oxidation of tetramethylthiourea (TMTU) on platinum electrodes in aqueous perchloric acid solution or the chemical oxidation of TMTU with hydrogen peroxide in hydrochloric acid-containing absolute ethanol....
