subject

description

A Cu(II) complex of 2-benzylmercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole was synthesized and characterized. The crystal structure of the copper complex and the free ligand were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at room temperature: {[Cu(C10H10N2S2) 2(Cl)2], P1 triclinic, a = 8.1450(2) Å, b = 8.1690(2) Å, c = 10.8180(3) Å, α = 97.4040(12)°, β = 101.6270(11)°, γ = 116.1431(14)°; C10H10N2S2 ligand, Pbca orthorhombic, a = 8.7938(7) Å, b = 9.6491(7) Å, c = 25.3552(18) Å}. The metal complex framework consists of discrete units that provide crystalline stability through a network of van der Waals contacts. The Cu(II) is coordinated by two chloride ions and two 2-benzylmercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4- thiadiazole monodentate ligands showing a distorted square planar configuration. Both thiadiazole ligands coordinate through the N atom bonded to the benzylthio substituted C atom. The FTIR spectroscopic data are consistent with this structural model. Analysis of the magnetic susceptibility from 5 K to room temperature indicates the presence of paramagnetic Cu(II), confirmed by the EPR spectrum. Fil: Camí, Gerardo E..
