description

Abstract The novel complexes RHg(s2UraH−1) (R = Me, Ph) where s2UraH−1 is the monoanion of 2-thiouracil, have been synthesized. Comparison of the infrared spectra of the solid complexes and of 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of the complexes in dimethyl-d6 sulfoxide with spectra of s2 Ura and Na[s2UraH−1] allows the recognition of the existence of isomers in the solid, with bonding to exocyclic sulfur and to pyrimidine nitrogens. In solution, a simpler pattern is observed, with 2J(1H199Hg) indicating bonding to sulfur only.
