Cycloaddition reaction of the azido-bridged cyclometallated complex [Pd(dmba)N-3](2) with CS2. Crystal and molecular structure of DI(mu, N,S-1,2,3,4-thiatriazole-5-thiolate) bis[(N,N-dimethylbenzyl-amine-C-2,N)palladium(II)]

Abstract

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of carbon disulfide to the coordinated azide in the cyclometallated compound [Pd(dmba)(N-3)](2) (1), dmba = N,N-dimethylbenzylamine, was investigated. The compound obtained di(mu, N,S-1,2,3,4-thiatriazole-5-thiolate)-bis[(N,N-dimethylbenzylamine-C-2,N)palladium(II)] (2), was characterized by IR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Complex (2) is dimeric with the two [Pd(N,N-dimethylbenzylamine)] moieties being connected by the two vicinal bridging N,S-1,2,3,4-thiatriazole-5-thiolate anions in a square-planar coordination for the palladium atoms.
