a b s t r a c t The reaction of AMTT (AMTT = 4-amino-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-thione, HL1) with palladium(II) chloride and triphenylphosphane as a co-ligand in acetonitrile afforded the mononuclear PdII-complex [(PPh3)Pd(HL1)Cl]Cl2CH3CN (1). The complex [(PPh3)Pd(HL1)I]Cl1/2H2O (2) was prepared via halogen exchange between 1 and sodium iodide in methanol/acetonitrile. The first binuclear palladium(II) complex containing singly deprotonated HL1, [(PPh3)2ClPd(L1)Pd(PPh3)Cl]Cl1/3H2OCH3OH (3), was prepared by the reaction of HL1 with palladium(II) chloride and triphenylphosphane in the presence of sodium acetate in methanol. All the complexes have been characterized by a combination of FT-IR-, 31P NMR-spectroscopy, elemental analyses and mass spectrometry. The molecular structures of the complexes were determined by X-ray diffraction studies. The unit cell of 2 exhibits two crystallographically independent complexes, while the unit cell of 3 contains three crystallographically independent molecules. While the triazole moiety in 1 and 2 acts as a bidentate chelating ligand, the deprotonated triazole compound in 3 acts as a bridging agent between two metal centers. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that the packing mode of the heterocycle by the phenyl rings of the PPh3 moiety is responsible for the interesting observed ‘‘sandwich” effect. The X-ray structure of the complex [Pd(py)4]Cl21/2H2O (4) is also reported. Ó 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

1. Introduction The chemistry of 1,2,4-triazole and its derivatives has received considerable attention because of their effective biological importance and applications. They are known to possess significant antitumor, antibacterial, fungicidal, hypotensive, hypothermic and antiinflammatory activities [1–8]. In addition to these applications, the coordination chemistry of 1,2,4-triazoles as a ligand is widely studied [9] and reviewed [10,11]. Up to 200 single crystal X-ray determinations of metal complexes with 1,2,4-triazoles as ligands well demonstrate the growing interest in the chemistry of this class of ligands. Metal complexes of 1,2,4-triazole and its derivatives often exhibit enhanced biological activities compared to the uncomplexed ligands [12–17]. Among the 1,2,4-triazole derivatives, the mercapto- and thionesubstituted 1,2,4-triazole ring systems have also been studied and reviewed [18–25]. 4-Amino-5-methyl-2H-1,2,4-triazole-3(4H)thione (AMTT, HL1) shows, as a weak monoprotic acid, thione–

thiol tautomerism in solution (forms I and II), as illustrated in Scheme 1. Therefore, such ligands exhibit various coordination modes as thioxo groups and triazoline nitrogen atoms are present on each heterocyclic ring [26–28]. Some of the observed coordination modes of the 1,2,4-triazole ring system to metal centers are presented in Scheme 2. We have previously reported the synthesis and molecular structure of CuI- and AgI-complexes containing AMTT and its Schiffbases, in which the ligand acts either as S-monodentate (form A, Scheme 2) or bidentate N,S-chelating (form B, Scheme 2), and have found that such heterocycles can be used as good stabilization agents for soft metal ions in low oxidation states [29–31]. We have recently reported the synthesis and characterization of the silver(I) complex [{[Ag(AETT)]NO3}2]n (AETT = 4-amino-5-ethyl-2H-1,2, 4-triazole-3(4H)-thione) with new coordination modes between silver(I) ions and the sulfur atoms of the 1,2,4-triazole-3-thione moieties, as shown in Scheme 3. These coordination modes lead to the formation of a 10-membered Ag–S ‘‘mosaic” pattern and cause a two dimensional endless framework [32]. The present work concerns the synthesis and characterization of mono- and binuclear palladium(II) complexes of sulfurated triazole AMTT with triphenylphosphane as a co-ligand.

The structures were solved by direct methods (SIR-92 for 1, 2 and 4 and SHELXS-97 for 3) and refined against F2 by full-matrix least-squares using the program SHELXL97. The position of carbon bonded hydrogen atoms were calculated for ideal positions and all hydrogen atoms except H1–H3 (free refinement) in 2 were refined with a common displacement parameter. Programs used were SIR-92 [36], SHELXS-97 [37], SHELXL97 [38], SHELXTL-PLUS [39] and PLATON [40].

complexes 1, 2 and 3 being obtained. In IR spectra of the complexes, the absorptions at 1479 and 1433 cm1 (1), 1460 and 1430 cm1 (2), and 1471 and 1431 cm1 (3) can be assigned to C@Nring stretching vibrations. The absorptions around 3188– 3350 cm1 can be assigned to NH2 vibrations in 1–3. The P–C vibrations of the PPh3 moiety are found in the range 744– 691 cm1 [41]. The mass spectra of 1, 2 and 3 show only the main peak of the corresponding ligand and co-ligand triphenylphosphane (m/z = 130 (HL1) for 1 and 2, 129 (L1) for 3 and m/z = 262 (PPh3) for all complexes). The 31P NMR spectra of 1 and 2 in CDCl3 showed a sharp single peak at d 29.89 ppm (1) and d 35.74 ppm (2). Consistent with the structure of 3, the solution 31P NMR spectrum in CDCl3 showed two 31P resonances at d 30.43 ppm for the mono phosphane coordinated palladium atom and at d 23.53 ppm for the two-fold phosphane coordinated metal center. The 1H NMR spectrum of complex 3 shows pronounced changes with respect to the free ligand (HL1), which means that the signal assigned to the triazole proton disappears as a consequence of deprotonation.

3.2. Crystal structures of 1, 2 and 3 Complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c,  Complexes while 2 and 3 crystallize in the triclinic space group P 1. 1 and 2 consists of [(PPh3)Pd(HL1)X]+ cations (X = Cl (1) and X = I (2)) and chloride anions. Cations of both complexes contain the [(PPh3)Pd(HL1)] core, in which the heterocycle HL1 acts as a bidentate chelating ligand and coordinates to the metal center via its hydrazine nitrogen atom and its thione sulfur atom, like form B as shown in Scheme 2 (Figs. 1 and 2). To complete the square planar arrangement around the palladium ion in these complexes, the fourth coordination places in 1 and 2 are occupied by one chlorine atom and one iodine atom. Complex 2 consists of two crystallographically independent molecules, as depicted in Fig. 2. Complex 3 consists of three crystallographically independent molecules (Fig. 3) and can be described as complex 1 with an additional coordination to a [(PPh3)2ClPd]-moiety through its deprotonated endocyclic NH-group. Therefore, the ligands act as a uni- as well as a bidentate chelating ligand and coordinate to the metal centers using one of their endocyclic nitrogen atoms (l1-Ncoordination to Pd2, Pd4 and Pd6) and their thiol sulfur atom and hydrazine nitrogen atom (l2-N,S-coordination to Pd1, Pd3 and Pd5). The other coordination positions around Pd1, Pd3 and Pd5 are occupied by one chlorine atom and one triphenylphosphane molecule, while the positions around Pd2, Pd4 and Pd6 are occupied by one chlorine atom and two triphenylphosphane moieties. In the cations of 3, [(PPh3)2ClPd(L1)Pd(PPh3)Cl]+, the singly deprotonated 1,2,4-triazole heterocycles (L1) act as a bridging agent between two palladium atoms and show Hückel aromaticity as shown in Scheme 5. The Pd–P bond length of 225.2(1) pm in 1, and mean Pd–P bond lengths of 224.3 pm in 2, 225.23 pm by one triphenylphosphane coordinated a metal center and 234.9 pm by the two-fold triphenylphosphane coordinated the palladium atoms in 3 are shorter than the sum of the single bond radii for palladium and phosphorus, i.e.

241 pm [42], and fall in the lower range (221–246 pm) of PdII–PPh3 bond reference values (230.2 pm) encountered in 248 entries [43]. The Pd–S bond distances of 230.1(1) pm (1), mean 231.55 pm (2) and mean 229.06 pm (3) are comparable with those reported for strong Pd–S coordination as observed in the complexes [(AMTTO)Pd(PPh)3Br]Br.MeOH (Pd–S: 227.5(2) pm) [44] and [Pd2(l-H3L)2]2DMSO (H3L = two-fold deprotonated 3,5-diacyl1,2,4-triazole-bis(4-methylthiosemicarbazone; Pd–S: 226.3(3) pm) [45]. The Pd–Cl bond distances of 229.9(1) pm in 1 and mean 231.39 pm by Pd1, Pd3 and Pd5 and mean 230 pm by Pd2, Pd4 and Pd6 in 3 are in good agreement with the observed distances in a series of triphenylphosphane-chlorine-palladium complexes, such as [(AMTTO)Pd(PPh3)Cl]ClCH3OH (Pd–Cl: 231.14(6) pm) [46]. The mean Pd–I bond distance of 260.12 pm in 2 is similar to those observed in [(AMTTO)Pd(PPh3)I]2CH3OH (Pd–I: 261.58(9) pm) [44]. Each cation in 1 acts as a bridging agent between its own chloride anion through its NH-group and the anions of two adjacent molecules through the hydrogen atoms of their NH2-moieties via hydrogen bonding (N2–H1  Cl2b: 326.2(4) pm, N2–H2  Cl2a: 333.0(4) pm and N4–H3  Cl2: 308.9(4) pm, Fig. 4). This coordina-

3043

tion arrangement is responsible for the formation of chains along the [0 0 1] direction (Fig. 5). The chloride anions in 2 act as a bridging agent between the cations (Fig. 6). The Cl1 atoms coordinate to three N–H-moieties (one intramolecular hydrogen bonding to one NH2-group and two intermolecular hydrogen bondings to the NH2- and NH-groups of the adjacent cation, N1–H1  Cl1: 315.6(6) pm, N6–H4  Cl1: 314.5(6) pm and N8–H6  Cl1: 311.3(8) pm). The Cl2 anions are responsible for the connections via hydrogen bonding between two layers (by coordination to the NH2- and NH-groups of the molecules of other layers, N4–H3  Cl2a: 311.4(7) pm, N6–H5  Cl2b: 315.6(6) pm). Each Cl2 anion coordinates to the NH2-moiety of the adjacent molecule via hydrogen bonding, simultaneously (N1–H2  Cl2: 313.4(6) pm). These coordination modes lead to a 2D-layers parallel to (0 0 1) as shown in Fig. 7. It is noteworthy to mention, that in all the complexes, the five-membered heterocycles are planar. A similar interesting chloride–hydrogen bonding composition can be observed in the palladium(II) complex [Pd(Py)4]Cl21/2H2O (4). Complex 4 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group Cc with a Flack-parameter of 0.00(3) and consists of [Pd(Py)4]+-cations

and chloride anions (Fig. 8). Although the molecules are nearly centrosymmetric, the structure could not be transformed into space group C2/c, which was confirmed by the Flack parameter. This was checked by standard procedures with the program PLATON [40]. In addition, the unit cell of 4 shows that Cc is the correct space group. The palladium center in the square planar cation is surrounded by four pyridine molecules. The chloride anions and the solvent molecules in 4 are responsible for the formation of a network of hydrogen bridges parallel to (0 0 1) as illustrated in Fig. 9 and Fig. 10 (O1–H1  Cl2a: 320.3(5) pm, O1–H2  Cl2a: 320.3(5) pm, O2–H3  Cl1a: 315.9(5) pm, O2–H4  .Cl2b: 311.1(5) pm, O3– H5  Cl2c: 314.5(5) pm, O3–H6  Cl1b: 317.1(5) pm). The dihedral angles between the ‘‘best” planes through the PdN4-plane (A: Pd1 N1 N2 N3 N4) and the planes through pyridine molecules (B: N1 C1 C2 C3 C4 C5, C: N2 C6 C7 C8 C9 C10, D: N3 C11 C12 C13 C14 C15, E: N4 C16 C17 C18 C19 C20) are (A, B) 97, (A, C): 63, (A, D): 94 and (A, E) 74°. Complex 3 contains one water molecule and six methanol molecules per three complex molecules. In each complex, the hydrazine amine moiety of the five-membered heterocycles acts as a bridging agent between two chloride anions using its two hydrogen atoms (Fig. 11). They link the chloride anion of the same complex to the anion of the adjacent one via hydrogen bonding (N2–H1  Cl7a: 324.3(3) pm, N2–H1–Cl7a: 163°; N2–H2  Cl7: 323.8(4) pm, N2–H2–Cl7: 164°; N6–H3  Cl9b: 332.6(5) pm, N6– H3–Cl9b: 159°; N6–H4-Cl8: 313.1(4) pm, N6–H4–Cl8: 175°; N10–H5  Cl8b: 329.6(3) pm, N10–H5–Cl8b: 159°; N10–H6   Cl9: 320.9(4) pm, N10–H6–Cl9: 169°). The chloride ion Cl9 acts as a bridging agent between one methanol molecule and the water molecule via hydrogen bonding (O1–H7  Cl9: 323.5(5) pm, O1– H7–Cl9: 126° and O5–H12  Cl9: 310(2) pm, O5–H12–Cl9: 130°). Fig. 12 represents the unit cell of complex 3. The dihedral angle between the ‘‘best” planes in the non-planar complexes of 3 (A: Pd1 P1 Cl1 N2 S1; B: Pd2 Cl2 P2 P3 N4; C: Pd3 P4 Cl3 N6 S2; D: Pd4 P5 P6 Cl4 N8; E: Pd5 Cl5 P7 S3 N10 and F: Pd6 P8 P9 Cl6 N12) are 101 (A, B), 110 (C, D) and 119° (E, F).

hindrance induced by the bulky phenyl rings of the three coordinated triphenylphosphane groups in 3 is responsible for the deviation from the planar geometry observed in 1 and 2, since no significant differences are found between the bond distances and bond angles in the corresponding ligands in the complexes. In each cation of 3, the triphenylphosphane ligands of the second palladium ion are trans-positioned. According to this coordination arrangement, the five-membered heterocycle is packed by two phenyl rings of the triphenylphosphane molecule like a sandwich with a p-stacking effect. The shortest distances between the central lying atoms of the heterocycles in the sandwiches from the phenyl rings are N3  C59: 326.0(5) pm, N7  C94: 318.3(5) pm and N11  C144: 313.0(5) pm. 4. Conclusion In conclusion, we have synthesized and characterized two mononuclear and the first binuclear palladium complex containing the well known 4-amino-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-thione moiety. According to the determined crystal structures, we found that the 1,2,4-triazole moiety acts as a bidentate chelating ligand through its sulfur and nitrogen atoms, while the singly deprotonated triazole moiety acts as a bridging agent between two metal centers. It can simultaneously act as a bidentate chelating agent through its thiole sulfur atom and hydrazine nitrogen atom to one metal center and as a uni-dentate agent via its endocyclic nitrogen atom to the other metal center. Consequently, this new

coordination mode can be described as form H as depicted in Scheme 6. In addition, the binuclear complex [(PPh3)2ClPd(L1)Pd(PPh3)Cl]Cl1/3H2OCH3OH shows the formation of an interesting ‘‘sandwich” effect due to the arrangement of the phenyl rings. 5.
