PENTA-COORDINATE COMPLEXES OF PALLADIUM(II) CHLORIDE WITH SULPHUR (NAPHTHYL THIOUREA) AND NITROGEN (HETEROCYCLIC AMINES) CONTAINING LIGANDS M. MAHFOOZ KHAN Department of Chemistry, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, U.P., India
t Receired 20 S~7~temher 1972) Abstract On the interaction of naphthyl thiourea with palladium(lI) chloride in methanol a pentacoordinate complex, [Pd(Ntu)4CI]CI, was obtained. On further coordination of this species with 2,2'dipyridyl, o-phenanthroline, pyridine, :g/:¢ and y-picolines, 2-4 and 2-6 lutidines, quinoline, isoquinoline and acridine mixed ligand penta-coordinate complexes of the type [Pd(Ntu)~LCI 1C1 and [Pd(Ntul2 L',CI1CI (where L stands for 2,2'-dipyridyl and o-phenanthroline and L' for pyridine, :~ and 3,-picolines, 2-4 and 2-6 lutidines, quinoline, isoquinoline and acridine) were obtained. I.R. studies indicate that the coordination in mixed ligand complexes has taken place through the sulphur of naphthyl thiourea and nitrogen of the heterocyclic amines. The simple naphthyl thiourea complex, ~Pd(NtU),~C1]C1, shows the presence of sulphur metal bond. The electrical conductance of all the above complexes in methyl alcohol indicates uni-univalent clcctrolytcs.
INTRODUCTION
lutidine (2-4L), 2-6,1utidine (2-6L), quinoline IQ), isoquinoline (Isoq) and acridine (acrid) were all AnalaR, B.D.H. products and used as such, whereas picolines. lutidines and quinolines were further purified by redistillation. Preparation of naphdTyl thiourea palladium(II ) chhn'ide About 50 ml aqueous solution of 1 per cent palladium(lI) chloride containing a few drops of conc. HCI was added to 100 ml solution of 5 per cent naphthyl thiourea in methyl alcohol. The resulting solution was heated over a water bath for about five minutes and filtered. The filtrate was kept for crystallization and after about three days lemon coloured crystals of the complex appeared. The crystals were separated from the main liquor and recrystallized from acetone. Finally, they were dried in a vacuum desiccator over CaO.
THE ABILI'rYof nitrogen and sulphur containing ligands to form complexes with palladium{II) are well known [1-5]. However, palladium(II) ions are one of the heavier elements which have a pronounced tendency to form square planar complexes[6]. Besides tetra coordinate complexes, there are some penta-coordinate species with trigonal bipyramidal structures which act as 1 : 1 electrolytes in solution[7]. But hexa-coordinate complexes of palladium(lI) are rare and a large number of complexes which were previously considered to be octahedral have later been shown not to be soE8 101. Although there is some evidence for higher coordination by the action of excess halide ion on chelates such as [Pd phen2] 2+ and tetrahalogeno palladates(II)[11]. This paper describes the preparation and properties of penta coordinate complex of palladium(II) chloride with naphthyl thiourea. The complex, [Pd(Ntu)4CI]CI, is further subjected to substitution reaction with some heterocyclic amines resulting in the formation of penta-coordinate mixed ligand species. All the complexes are characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance values, and the bonding discussed on the basis of i.r. and far i.r. spectra studies.

the unreacted ligand was removed by washing the complex several times with small aliquots of acetone, in which the amines were highly soluble, the pure complex being poorly soluble. The purified complex was crystallized from methyl alcohol.

Solubility All the complexes are soluble in ethyl and methyl alcohols but insoluble in other common organic solvents such as benzene, toluene, chloroform and nitrobenzene. The analyses of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and chlorine were carried out by the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, India. I.R. spectra were recorded with a Perkin-Elmer infracord model 137 for the range 4000-700 crn -1 using KBr pellets whereas the spectra in the range 700-350 were recorded on a Beckman 11 in KBr. Molar conductance of the complexes was measured in methyl alcohol with a Philips conductivity bridge, model PR 9500 using a dip-type conductivity cell (cell constant 0.76).
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Like thiourea, naphthyl thiourea has coordinating capacity both through sulphur and nitrogen. The only difference between them is the attachment of the naphthyl group to one nitrogen of the thiourea. Previous studies on the coordination chemistry of thiourea and substituted thioureas with palladium(II) chloride have indicated the presence of metal to sulphur bond[I, 4]. Thus, it will be of interest to compare the manner in which thiourea and naphthyl thiourea coordinate with palladium(II) chloride, because naphthyl is an electron withdrawing group and, therefore, it should be expected to reduce the nucleophilicity of the naphthyl amino nitrogen and so the chances of coordination through this nitrogen become less than for the primary amino group and sulphur which are present in the molecule. Furthermore, it is also important to note that as the nucleophilic nature of such compound decreases the N - H

But in a weakly thiourea than thiourea[12, 13]. Therefore, the co- polar medium, acetone, further association of chlorine ordinating capacity of thiourea through sulphur must takes place which leads to the formation of nonbe greater than that of naphthyl thiourea.

However, the conductivity palladium(II) chloride and this has also been extended again increases as much as before, i.e. to a value to the mixed ligand complexes formed by subjecting appropriate to a 1:I electrolyte on the addition of naphthyl thiourea-palladium(II) chloride complex to excess naphthyl thiourea, according to the following equilibrium(l) further substitution with heterocyclic amines.
