Cis-trans Isomerism in Copper(II) Complexes with N-acyl Thiourea Ligands

The N‐acyl thiourea complexes bis[N,N‐diethyl‐N′‐(p‐nitrobenzoyl)‐thioureato]copper(II) (1a,1b) and bis(N,N‐diphenyl‐N′‐benzoylthioureato)copper(II) (2a,2b) crystallize in each case in two modifications. X‐ray structural analysis shows that 1a and 1b are cis‐trans isomers. This is very unusual for N...

Summary:The N‐acyl thiourea complexes bis[N,N‐diethyl‐N′‐(p‐nitrobenzoyl)‐thioureato]copper(II) (1a,1b) and bis(N,N‐diphenyl‐N′‐benzoylthioureato)copper(II) (2a,2b) crystallize in each case in two modifications. X‐ray structural analysis shows that 1a and 1b are cis‐trans isomers. This is very unusual for N‐acyl thioureato complexes because with exception of one platinum(II) complex up to now only cis complexes have been found. In contrast X‐ray structural analysis of both forms 2a and 2b of the other complex shows no cis‐trans pair. Both modifications are cis complexes. In solution both isomers of the copper(II) complexes are observable by EPR spectroscopy. Die N‐Acylthioharnstoff‐Komplexe Bis[N,N‐diethyl‐N′‐(p‐nitrobenzoyl)thioureato]kupfer(II) (1a,1b) und Bis(N,N‐diphenyl‐N′‐benzoylthioureato)kupfer(II) (2a,2b) kristallisieren in jeweils zwei Modifikationen. Die Röntgenkristallstrukturanalyse zeigt, daß 1a und 1b cis‐trans‐Isomere sind. Das ist sehr ungewöhnlich für N‐Acylthioharnstoff‐Komplexe, weil mit Ausnahme eines Platin(II)‐Komplexes bisher nur cis‐Komplexe gefunden wurden. Im Gegensatz dazu zeigt die Röntgenkristallstrukturanalyse der beiden Formen 2a und 2b des anderen Komplexes kein cis‐trans‐Paar. Beide Modifikationen sind cis‐Komplexe. In Lösungen der Kupfer(II)‐Komplexe werden beide Isomere EPR‐spektroskopisch beobachtet.
