Abstract

Series of mononuclear complexes of arene Ru and Cp*Rh/Cp*Ir complexes containing (3-picolyl)thiourea derivative ligands, of general formulae [(η6-arene)Ru(L)Cl]Cl and [Cp*M(L)Cl]Cl {L = benzoyl(3-picoylyl)thiourea, arene = benzene (1); p-cymene (2) and M = Rh (3); Ir (4); L = 1,3-bis(3-picolyl)thiourea, arene = benzene (5); p-cymene (6) and M = Rh (7); Ir (8)}, have been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic methods. X-ray crystallographic studies of complexes (2)–(5), (7), and (8) reveal a typical piano-stool geometry around the metal center with a six-membered metallacycle, in which L acts as an N,S-chelating ligand. Intramolecular N–H···S, S···O, and N–H···N interactions are found to play a significant role in the molecular structures.
