Cd(II)-NCS/NCO complexes of 1-alkyl-2-(arylazo)imidazole: Single crystal X-ray structure of [Cd(HaaiMe)(2)(SCN)(2)]

摘要

The reaction of Cd(OAc)(2) (.) 4H(2)O and 1-alkyl-2-(arylazo)imidazole [RaaiR' where R = H (a), Me (b); R' = Me (1/3/5), Et (2/4/6)] and NH4NCS/NaNCO in methanol in 1:2:2 mole ratio has afforded [Cd(RaaiR')(2)(NCS)(2)](3,4) and [Cd(RaaiR')(2)(NCO)(2)](5,6) complexes. The complexes are characterized by different physicochemical methods and in one case, the structure was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction study for title compounds. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V.
