Eight N-thiophosphorylated bis-thioureas of the common formula Z[NHC(S)NHP(S)(OiPr)₂]₂ [Z = ∅ (1), 1,2-C₆H₄ (2), 1,3-C₆H₄ (3), 1,4-C₆H₄ (4), CH₂(1,4-C₆H₄)₂ (5), O(1,4-C₆H₄)₂ (6), S(1,4-C₆H₄)₂ (7), CH₂(1,4-C₆H₁₀)₂ (8)] have been synthesized and characterized. Molecular structures of 3, 4, 5[middle dot]0.5C₆H₁₄, 6[middle dot]CH₂Cl₂ and 8 were elucidated by X-ray diffraction. Competitive transport properties of 1-8 towards metal ions were studied.
