The polymer complex [Hg(l-mptrz) 2 ] n and two binuclear complexes of {[H 2 en][Hg 2 (mptrz) 4 (l-Br) 2 ]} and {[H 2 en][Hg 2 (mptrz) 4 (l-I) 2 ]} were prepared from the reaction of 4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (Hmptrz) and ethylene diamine (en) with HgCl 2 , HgBr 2 , and HgI 2 in CH 3 OH, respectively. Complex [Hg(l-mptrz) 2 ] n was also prepared from the reaction of 4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol and ethylene diamine with Hg(OAc) 2 and Hg(SCN) 2 in CH 3 OH and Hg(NO 3 ) 2 ÁH 2 O in a mixture of CH 3 OH/ H 2 O. Analysis of these complexes was done by CHN elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis, 1 H and 13 C NMR, and luminescence spectroscopy, as well as single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Thermal stabilities of these complexes were also studied by TGA/DTA analyses.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
