The synthesis and structures of dinuclear palladium complexes with 1,3-benzimidazolidine-2-thione and 1,3-imidazoline-2-thione are reported.

Abstract

The synthesis and structures of dinuclear palladium complexes with 1,3-benz­imidazolidine-2-thione (bzimtH) and 1,3-imidazoline-2-thione (imtH) are reported, namely, bis­(μ-1H-benzimidazole-2-thiol­ato)-κ² N ³:S;κ² S:N ³-bis­[cyanido(tri­phenyl­phosphine-κP)palladium(II)], [Pd₂(C₇H₅N₂S)₂(CN)₂(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂] or [Pd₂(μ-N,S-bzimtH)₂(CN)₂(PPh₃)₂] (1), and bis­(μ-1H-imidazole-2-thiol­ato)-κ² N ³:S;κ² S:N ³-bis­[cyanido(tri­phenyl­phosphine-κP)palladium(II)] aceto­nitrile 0.58-solvate, [Pd₂(C₃H₃N₂S)₂(CN)₂(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂]·0.58C₂H₃N or [Pd₂(μ-N,S-imtH)₂(CN)₂(PPh₃)₂]·0.58C₂H₃N (2). The compound [Pd₂(μ-N,S-bzimtH)₂(CN)₂(PPh₃)₂] is located on a crystallographic twofold axis while [Pd₂(μ-N,S-imtH)₂(CN)₂(PPh₃)₂]. 0.58(C₂H₃N) contains two partially occupied aceto­nitrile solvent mol­ecules with occupancies of 0.25 and 0.33. In both of these compounds, the anionic bzimtH⁻ and imtH⁻ ligands coordinate through N,S-donor atoms in a bridging mode, covering four coordination sites of two metal centers and other two sites are occupied by two PPh₃ ligand mol­ecules. Finally, the remaining two sites of two metal centers are occupied by cyano groups, abstracted by the metals from the solvent during reaction. In the packing of the 1,3-benzimidazolidine- 2-thione and 1,3-imidazoline-2-thione complexes, there are intra­molecular π–π inter­actions involving the thione moiety as well as an N—H⋯N hydrogen bond linking the thione and cyano ligands. In addition, in 2, as well as the π–π inter­action involving the thione moieties, there is an additional π–π inter­action involving one of the thione moieties and an adjacent phenyl ring from the tri­phenyl­phosphine ligand. There are also C—H⋯N inter­actions between the imidazoline rings and the aceto­nitrile N atoms.

1. Chemical context

The coordination chemistry of N,S-donor heterocyclic-2-thione ligands has been in focus for the past four decades, describing synthetic methods, bonding and structures of metal complexes (Raper, 1985 ▸, 1994 ▸, 1996 ▸, 1997 ▸; García-Vázquez et al., 1999 ▸; Akrivos, 2001 ▸), analytical chemistry (Koch, 2001 ▸), charge-transfer complexes (Serpe et al., 2008 ▸) and anion receptors (Bondy & Loeb, 2003 ▸). A recent survey revealed that the reactions of heterocyclic-2-thio­nes with group 10–12 metals (Ni–Pt, Cu–Au, Zn–Hg; Lobana, 2021 ▸) have led not only to the formation of a variety coordination compounds, but have also displayed other aspects of chemical reactivity. For instance, some reactions of heterocyclic thio­nes involved copper-mediated activation, and rupture of C—S (thione) bonds followed by their transformations to other forms of thio-ligands, bonded to the copper metal. Further, there has been an upsurge in explorations of the bio-activity and bio-safe potential of coordination compounds, as anti­microbial and anti­cancer agents (Lobana, 2021 ▸).

The chemistry of palladium is inter­esting because of the coordination flexibility and catalytic role of this metal in several reactions (Kostas & Steele, 2020 ▸; Lobana, 2021 ▸). In the literature, pyridine-2-thione (pytH) with palladium(II) has been reported to form dinuclear complexes, namely, [Pd₂(μ-N,S-pyt)₄] (Umakoshi et al., 1990 ▸), [Pd₂(μ-N,S-pyt)(μ-S-pyt)(κ¹:S-pyt)₂(μ-P,P-dppm)] and [Pd₂(μ-κ²:N,S-pyt)₃(κ²:P,P-dppm)]Cl (Mendía et al., 2006 ▸), [Pd₂Cl₂(μ-N,S-pyt)₂(PMe₃)₂] (Yamamoto et al., 1991 ▸), [Pd₂Cl₂(μ-N,S-pymt)₂(PMe₃)₂] (Yap & Jensen, 1992 ▸). Benz-1,3-imidazoline-2-thioe (bzimtH₂) has formed one dimer, [Pd^II ₂(μ-κ²:N,S-bzimt)₂(κ¹-S-bzimt)(PPh₃)₃]Cl·2H₂O (Lobana et al. 2017 ▸). In this manuscript, some reactions of this metal with a few heterocyclic-2-thione ligands (bzimtH₂ and imtH₂) are described.

2. Structural commentary

The reaction of PdCl₂(PPh₃)₂ with bzimtH₂ in a 1:2 molar ratio in the presence of Et₃N base was designed to form [Pd(κ¹ S-bzimtH)₂(PPh₃)₂] after removal of both halogens as [Et₃NH]⁺Cl⁻. However, the X-ray crystal structure of the product revealed the formation of the unexpected dinuclear compound [Pd₂(μ-N,S-bzimtH)₂(CN)₂(PPh₃)₂] (1). Another thio-ligand, imtH₂ yielded a similar dinuclear compound, [Pd₂(μ-N,S-imtH)₂-(CN)₂(PPh₃)₂] (2). In both these compounds, the anionic bzimtH⁻ and imtH⁻ ligands coordinate through N,S donor atoms in a bridging mode, covering four coordination sites of two metal centers, and other two sites are occupied by two PPh₃ ligand mol­ecules. Finally, the remaining two sites of two metal centers are occupied by cyano groups, abstracted by the metals from the solvent during reaction.

Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, and compound 2 in the monoclinic space group, P2₁/c. Selected bond distances and bond angles are given in Tables 1 ▸ and 2 ▸, respectively. The mol­ecular structure of compound 1 is shown in Fig. 1 ▸, while that of compound 2 is shown in Fig. 2 ▸ (leaving out the aceto­nitrile solvent mol­ecules). Considering first the structure of compound 1, here only half of the mol­ecule is unique as the mol­ecule lies on a crystallographic twofold axis. In 1, the Pd metal atom is bonded to one P, one S, one N and one C atoms with the respective bond distances as follows: Pd—P = 2.2861 (6), Pd—S = 2.3547 (6), Pd—N = 2.0545 (17), and Pd—C = 1.959 (2) Å. The trans bond angles, P—Pd—S and N—Pd—C, of 172.26 (2) and 178.31 (8)°, as well as the cis bond angles in the range 84.93 (6)–94.24 (5)°, reveal the distorted square-planar geometry of each metal center. One of the major factors in the conformation adopted by the mol­ecule is the strong π–π inter­action between the thione moieties [Cg⋯Cg, 3.1905 (12) Å], as seen in Fig. 1 ▸. In addition, there is also a π–π inter­action between the thione moieties and an adjacent phenyl ring from the tri­phenyl­phosphine ligand [Cg⋯Cg = 3.3560 (9) Å with a slippage of 1.408 Å].

The coordination pattern of compound 2 is similar to that of 1. Nevertheless, there are minor differences in the bond distances and angles pertaining to the two metal centers of compound 2 (Fig. 2 ▸). Thus, the respective Pd—P, Pd—S, Pd—N and Pd—C bond distances of 2 are 2.2914 (5), 2.3541 (5), 2.0345 (17) and 1.957 (2) Å (Pd1 metal center), and 2.2984 (5), 2.3542 (5), 2.0345 (17) and 1.943 (2) Å (Pd2 metal center). For both metal centers, the trans bond angles [P—Pd—S and N—Pd—C = 173.86 (2)–179.31 (8)°] and the adjacent bond angles [86.54 (7)– 92.80 (4)°] are similar to those of compound 1. These bond angles again reveal the distorted square-planar geometry of each metal center of compound 2. The various bond distances described above are normal and none unusual. Compound 1 has carbon–sulfur (C—S) bond distance of 1.728 (2), while in compound 2 it is 1.734 (2) Å. These distances are in between single (1.81 Å) and double-bond (1.68 Å) C—S distances (Huheey et al., 1993 ▸). It shows a weakening of the C—S bond as a result of S to Pd coordination. The C≡N distance of the coordinated cyano group is 1.127 (3) in compound 1 and 1.143 (3) /1.148 (3) Å in compound 2. These distances are less than the expected C=N double bond (1.28 Å) and are close to the C≡N triple bond distance (1.15 Å; Huheey et al., 1993 ▸). The structure of 2 contains partially occupied aceto­nitrile solvent mol­ecules with occupancies of 0.33 and 0.25. As in the case of 1, in 2 one of the major factors in the conformation adopted by the mol­ecule is the strong π–π inter­action between the thione moieties [Cg⋯Cg = 3.3559 (12) Å], as seen in Fig. 2 ▸. In addition, there is also a π–π inter­action between each of the thione moieties and an adjacent phenyl ring from the tri­phenyl­phosphine ligand [Cg⋯Cg distances of 3.3065 (8) Å and 3.3218 (8), respectively, with a slippage for the latter of 1.154 Å].

The IR spectrum of the bzimtH₂ ligand showed a ν(N—H) band at 3113 (m), and in compound 1, this band appeared at a lower energy, 3055 (m) cm⁻¹. The ligand showed a diagnostic ν(C=S) band at 1179 cm⁻¹, which shifted to ν(C=S), 1033(s) cm⁻¹, owing to the change of neutral bzimtH₂ ligand to the bzimtH⁻ anionic form, coordinating through N,S donor atoms. The PPh₃ ligand showed its characteristic ν(P—C_Ph) band at 1097(s) cm⁻¹ in compound 1. A band at 1734 cm⁻¹ was assigned to the coordinated cyano group. The IR spectroscopic bands of compound 2 are similarly assigned: ν(N—H), 3050 (m), ν(C=S), 1020 (m), ν(P—C_Ph), 1105 (s) and ν(C≡N), 1740(s) cm⁻¹.

In conclusion, the chemistry of heterocyclic-2-thio­nes remains enigmatic, probably due to the angular flexibility at sulfur, and also due to the short bite angle of the N,S-donor set in case it chelates with the formation of four-membered rings. This leads to a greater tendency of these thio-ligands in anionic forms to adopt bridging modes, noted as for example in dinuclear complexes (Raper, 1997 ▸; Lobana, 2021 ▸). Benz-1,3-imidazoline-2-thione (bzimtH₂) has formed an N,S-bonded symmetrically bridged dinuclear compound, and so is the case with 1,3-imidazolidine-2-thione, and these are analogous to literature reports (Yamamoto et al., 1991 ▸; Yap & Jensen, 1992 ▸).

3. Supra­molecular features

In the packing of 1 and 2 there are similar trends in both hydrogen-bond patterns and intra­molecular inter­actions. In both structures, there are strong intra­molecular π–π inter­actions involving the thione moiety and adjacent phenyl rings from the tri­phenyl­phosphine ligand as discussed above. Both 1 and 2 have a similar hydrogen-bonding pattern (numerical details in Tables 3 ▸ and 4 ▸), as shown in Figs. 3 ▸ and 4 ▸. In each, the N—H group of the thione moiety forms an inter­molecular hydrogen bond with an adjacent N atom from the coordinated cyanide anion and these form (7) chains (Etter et al., 1990 ▸) in the [110] and [ 10] directions. In addition, in 2 there are also C—H⋯N inter­actions between the imidazoline rings and the partially occupied aceto­nitrile N atoms and this is shown in Fig. 5 ▸.

4. Database survey

A search of the Cambridge Structural Database for complexes of palladium with either 1, 3-benzimidazolidine- 2-thione or 1,3-imidazoline-2-thione returned nine hits for the former (BEYRUV and BEYWAG, Sandhu et al., 2018 ▸; PONKOT, PONKUZ, PONLAG, PONLEK and PONLIO, Talismanova et al., 2008 ▸; SANMOK, Talismanova et al., 2004 ▸; SAQPEI, Lobana et al., 2017 ▸) and three hits for the latter (APIYII, Ahmad et al., 2010 ▸; BEYVUZ, Sandhu et al., 2018 ▸; HAWYEJ, Kahn et al., 1993 ▸, SAQPIM, Lobana et al., 2017 ▸).

5. Synthesis and crystallization

The starting materials, namely palladium(II) chloride, tri­phenyl­phosphine (PPh₃), 1,3-benzimidazoline-2-thione (bzimtH₂), 1,3-imidazoline-2-thione (imtH₂), and tri­ethyl­amine were procured from Aldrich. The solvents (aceto­nitrile, ethanol, methanol and di­chloro­methane) were of HPLC grade and were stored over mol­ecular sieves. The precursor, PdCl₂(PPh₃)₂, was prepared by a literature procedure (Steffen & Palenik, 1976 ▸). The melting points were determined with a Gallenkamp electrically heated apparatus using the dried samples in capillary tubes. The analysis for carbon, hydrogen and nitro­gen were performed by using CHNS-O analyzer Flash- EA-1112 series. The IR spectra of the compounds were recorded on FTIR–SHIMADZU 8400 Fourier transform spectrophotometer in the range of 4000–400 cm⁻¹ using KBr pellets.

Preparation of the precursor, [PdCl₂(PPh₃)₂]

Palladium(II) chloride (0.050 g, 0.282 mmol) was dissolved in hot aceto­nitrile (25 mL) in a 50 mL round-bottom flask, and to it was added tri­phenyl­phosphine (0.148 g, 0.564 mol). The contents were refluxed for 1 h and the yellow complex formed was filtered and dried in vacuo, m.p. 551-553 K

Preparation of 1

To a solution of PdCl₂(PPh₃)₂ (0.030 g, 0.043 mmol) in 10 mL of CH₃CN, was added solid bzimtH₂ (0.013 g, 0.086 mmol) followed by the addition of Et₃N base (0.5 mL). The solution became yellowish orange and was refluxed for 6 h. The orange compound was formed on refluxing. It was separated and dissolved in a solution of methanol (4 mL) and di­chloro­methane (1 mL) in a culture tube. A slow evaporation of the reaction mixture over a period of one month, resulted in the formation of orange crystals of compound 1. Yield: 0.015 g; 65%; m.p. 511–513 K. Analysis found: C, 57.71; H, 3.84; N, 7.50; C₅₂H₄₀N₆P₂Pd₂S₂ (1087.8) requires: C, 57.40; H, 3.70; N, 7.72%.

Preparation of 2

To the solution of PdCl₂(PPh₃)₂ (0.040 g, 0.060 mmol) in 10 mL of CH₃CN, was added solid imtH₂ (0.012 g, 0.120 mmol) followed by the addition of Et₃N base (0.5 mL). The solution became yellowish orange and was refluxed for 6 h. The orange compound was formed on refluxing and was separated. It was dissolved in a solution of methanol (4 mL) and di­chloro­methane (1 mL) in a culture tube. Slow evaporation of the reaction mixture over a period of one month formed yellowish-orange crystals of compound 2. Yield: 0.020 g; 69%; m.p. 485–488 K. Analysis found: C, 53.21; H, 3.92; N, 8.48; C₄₄H₃₆N₆P₂Pd₂S₂·0.58(CH₃CN) (1011.5) requires: C, 53.58; H, 3.73; N, 8.36%.

Bis(µ-1H-benzimidazole-2-thiolato)-κ²N³:S;κ²S:N³-bis[cyanido(triphenylphosphine-κP)palladium(II)] (1) . Special details

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.
