Abstract

Metal–Organic Chalcogenolates (MOCs) based on d 10 coinage metals constitute a versatile class of coordination polymers combining anisotropic structures with diverse functional properties. In this review, we examine a series of 23 Cu(I), Ag(I), and Au(I)-based MOCs obtained from eight functionalized thiophenolate ligands. The systematic comparison of these compounds highlights how the metal identity, ligand functionalization, steric hindrance, and secondary interactions govern the coordination modes and, most importantly, the dimensionality of the resulting networks. The 1D and 2D MOCs provide a particularly relevant platform to establish relationships between network dimensionality and physical properties. Their photoluminescence and electrical properties reveal distinct trends across the Cu, Ag, and Au series, with dimensionality playing a key role in both light emission and charge transport. The review further discusses the dynamic behavior of these materials, including ligand-exchange processes and reversible transformations between different structural and physical states. Their ability to form fibers, thin films, glasses, and composite materials further illustrates the versatility of MOCs beyond their crystalline structures. Selected examples of optical thermometry, optoelectronics, phase-change materials, sensing, and catalysis demonstrate their emerging functional potential. Overall, this review emphasizes dimensionality as a central structural parameter for understanding structure–property relationships and guiding the design of functional MOCs.
