Structure and other properties of the selected products of the interaction of (1-diaminomethylene)thiourea (HATU) with transition metal halides, also in the presence of 3% hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent, are presented. This work is part of our studies on the reactivity and crystal engineering of (1-diaminomethylene)thiourea (HATU). Structure and other properties of the selected products of the interaction of HATU with transition metal halides, also in the presence of 3% hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent, have been investigated (( 1) di-μ-((1-diaminomethylene)thiouron-1-ium)-κ 4S:S-bis[chlorido((1-diaminomethylene)-thiouron-1-ium-κS)copper(I)] tetrachloride [(C 2H 7N 4S) 4Cu I 2Cl 2]Cl 4, ( 2) catena(bis(3,5-diamino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-2-ium)-bis(μ 2-chlorido)-chloridocuprate(II)) [(C 2H 6N 4S) 2(Cu 2Cl 6)] ∞, ( 3) 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-2-ium pentachloridoferrate(III) (C 2H 6N 4S) 2[FeCl 5], ( 4) 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-2-ium chloride) (C 2H 6N 4S)Cl, ( 5) 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-thiadiazol-2-ium tetrachloridozincate(II) (C 2H 7N 4S) 2[ZnCl 4]. For ( 2) also magnetic properties have been characterized. Compound ( 3) contains unusual pentachloridoferrate(III) anions.
