Abstract

The treatment of phenylmercury(II) acetate with several pyrimidine-2-thiones (RpymSH) results in the formation of the corresponding pyrimidine-2-thionato complexes [PhHg(RpymS)]. The crystal structure of [PhHg(4,6-Me2pymS)] shows a nearly lineal coordination environment for the mercury atom, with the ligand using the exocyclic sulfur atom to bind the metal; a weak interaction between mercury and one of the heterocyclic nitrogens is also observed. Vibrational and 1H, 13C and 199Hg NMR spectroscopic data of the complexes are discussed and related to the structure.

Graphical abstractA series of pyrimidine-2-thionato complexes of phenyl mercury with general structure [PhHg(RpymS)] has been synthetized and characterized by Vibrational and 1H, 13C and 199Hg NMR spectroscopies. The crystal structure of [PhHg(4,6-Me2pymS). shows the ligand exhibiting a monodentate behaviour through the exocyclic sulfur atom but a weak Hg–N interaction is also proposed.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
