The di-μ-hydroxo complexes [NBu4]2[{(C6X5) 2M(μ-OH)2}2] (M = Pd or Pt; X = F or Cl) react with heterocyclic thiones H(LL′) (1:2 molar ratio) to give the heterocyclic-2-thiolate complexes [NBu4] [(C6X5)2M(η2-LL′)] (LL′ = pyridine-2-thiolate (pyS), pyrimidine-2-thiolate (pyrimS), 2,6-dimethyl-5-oxo-1,2,4-triazine-3-thiolate (Me2tazS), 6-methyl-5-oxo-1,2,4-triazine-3-thiolate (MetazS)) or [NBu4]2[{(C6F5) 2M(μ-η2-MeimidS)}2] (MeimidS=methylimidazole-2-thiolate). The variable-temperature 1H NMR spectra of the complexes [NBu4] [(C6X5)2M(η2-LL′)] over the range - 50 to +60°C are all static, but those of the methylimidazole-2-thiolate complexes [NBu4]2[{(C6F5) 2M(μ-η2-MeimidS)}2] (M=Pd and Pt) suggest the existence of dynamic chemical processes involving both dimeric and monomeric species. Crystallization of [NBu4]2[{(C6F5)2Pd} 2( (μ-η2-MeimidS)}2] from wet dichloromethane-hexane-ether afforded the mixed complex [NBu4]2[{(C6F5)2Pd} 2(μ-OH)(μ-η2-MeimidS)]. The analogous mixed platinum complex [NBu4]2[{(C6F5)2Pd} 2(μ-OH)(μ-η2-MeimidS)] was prepared by reaction of [NBu4]2[{(C6X5) 2Pt(μ-OH)2}2] with the corresponding heterocyclic thione H(LL′) in 1:1 molar ratio. The crystal structure of [NBu4]2[{(C6F5) 2Pd(μ-η2-MeimidS)}2], determined by X-ray diffraction, confirmed the dimeric structure with a head-to-tail arrangement.
