Some studies in inorganic complexes. XVII. 2-Thioamidopyridine complexes of copper(I) and copper(II)

Abstract

The following copper complexes of the chelating ligand 2-thioamidopyridine (thiopic) have been prepared and studied: [Cuthiopic₂][CuX₂], where X = Cl, Rr, I, and SCN (two isomers); [Cuthiopic₂]I; [Cuthiopic₂ClO₄].ClO₄.H₂O; [Cuthiopic₂OH]ClO₄; [Cuthiopic₂NO₃]NO₃.H₂O; [Cuthiopic₂NO₃]PF₆.H₂O; and [Cuthiopic₂][PF₆]₂. 4H₂O. Conductance measurements in nitrobenzene, nitromethane, and ethanol; and absorption studies in the infrared, visible, and ultraviolet regions of the spectrum were carried out and magnetic measurements were also determined.
