Abstract
Silver(I) cyanide complexes of various thiones (imidazolidine-2-thione, diazinane-2-thione and their derivatives) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, i.r. and n.m.r. (1H, 13C, 15N and 107Ag) spectroscopy. It appears from the i.r. data that six out of the ten complexes are nonionic [>C=S—Ag—CN] while the remaining four exist as ionic species [Ag(>C=S)2]+[Ag(CN)2]− in the solid state. An upfield shift in the 13C-n.m.r. and downfield shifts in the 1H-, 15N- and 107Ag-n.m.r. spectra are consistent with the sulfur coordination to silver(I). The n.m.r. data shows that the [>C=S—AgCN] complexes are stable in solution and do not undergo redistribution.
