Abstract

:
In order to investigate the coordination chemistry of O-alkyl N-aryl thiocarbamate ligands toward coinage metals, CuBr was reacted with one equivalent of MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph L in MeCN solution to afford the 1D-polymeric title compound [{Cu(μ2-Br)2Cu}{μ2-MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph}2]n CP1. Compound 1 was characterized by IR spectroscopy and an elemental analysis. The formation of a polymeric 1D ribbon built upon μ2-bridging bromido and thione ligands via the C=S bond was ascertained by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study performed at 100 K. In the presence of PAr3 (Ar = Ph, p-Tol), the polymer chain was broken to yield the mononuclear complexes [(Ar3P)2Cu{MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph}Br] C1 and C2.

1. Introduction

Thiocarbamates, also called thiocarbamides, with the general formula ROC(=S)N(H)R′ play not only a role in organic chemistry as building blocks for further transformations but also in applications in various domains, such as biological and pharmacological activities or catalysis [1,2,3,4,5]. Furthermore, they have attracted the attention of coordination chemists, since the soft C=S thione function (according to Pearson’s HSAB principle) [6] readily coordinates to a wide range of transition metal complexes, forming complexes with Cu(I), Ag(I), Au(I), Hg(II), Ru(II), Rh(III), etc. [7,8,9,10,11]. Furthermore, they may act as potential ditopic ligands capable of coordinating to a metal center both via their soft C=S function or through the harder HNR2 group as demonstrated by the crystal structure determination of the square-planar bis(O-methylphenylthiocarbamato)(triphenylphosphine)-palladium [11]. We have recently demonstrated that O-methyl-N-phenyl thiocarbamate L can even be coordinated to p-block metal salts, such as BiI3 [12]. Some representative examples of crystallographically characterized mono- and dinuclear complexes ligated by O-methyl-N-phenyl thiocarbamate are presented in Scheme 1 [7,8,12].
With the aim to investigate putative arene-C–H···π(quasi-chelate ring) interactions in copper(I) crystal structures, Tiekink et al. reported in 2014 on the synthesis of the complex [(Ph3P)2Cu{MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph}Cl] by the reaction of CuCl with L in the presence of two equivalents of PPh3. [7], shown as complex A in Scheme 1. In a continuation of our investigations on the coordination chemistry of thione-type ligands on diverse metal centers [13,14,15,16], our group extended the preparation of this type of Cu(I) complex to CuBr and CuI, systematically analyzed by crystal structure determinations a wide series of complexes [(Ar3P)2Cu{ROC(=S)N(H)Ph}X)] (Ar = Ph, p-C6H4OMe; X = Br, I), and investigated the biological activity of these compounds featuring intramolecular N-H···Hal bonding, giving rise to six-membered cycles [17]. We also reported that the formation of [(Ar3P)2Cu{ROC(=S)N(H)Ph}I)] is preceded in the initial phase of the reaction by the formation of mono-dimensional coordination polymers of type [{Cu(μ2-I)2Cu}(μ2-L)2]n [17]. We now investigate in more detail the outcome of the reaction of CuBr with L, describing herein the synthesis and crystal structure of the resulting coordination polymer [{Cu(μ2-Br)2Cu}{μ2-MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph}2]n CP1 and reporting on its reactivity towards PAr3.

2. Results and Discussion

The hitherto unknown coordination polymer [{Cu(μ2-Br)2Cu}{μ2-MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph}2]n CP1 was obtained by the addition of one equivalent of O-methyl N-phenyl thiocarbamate L to a solution of CuBr in MeCN (Scheme 2). After stirring for 20 min, the precipitation of a colorless microcrystalline material occurred, which upon heating for 5 min almost redissolved. Upon cooling, colorless crystals started to grow. According to the elemental analysis of this air-stable material, one L molecule is attached per CuBr motif. This polymeric material, whose characterization is described below, reacts straightforwardly upon the addition of two equivalents of PPh3 per CuBr unit to form by the splitting of the μ2-Br bridges of CP1 the mononuclear tetrahedral complex [(Ph3P)2Cu{MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph}Br] C1 (Scheme 2). Since this complex has been recently fully characterized, we refer for its spectroscopic data to ref. [17]. In an analogous manner, CP1 reacts with tris(p-tolyl)phosphine PTol3-p to yield the derivative [(Tol3P)2Cu{MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph}Br] C2 with over an 85% yield as an air-stable crystalline solid. Its 31P NMR spectrum in CDCl3 shows a single broadened resonance at δ −6.34 with a Δδ of 0.92 ppm with respect to free PTol3 [18]. The 1H NMR spectrum displays a strong singlet at δ 2.33 ppm, attributed to the six equivalent methyl groups of the p-tolyl rings. The characteristic signals of the thiocarbamate moiety at δ 4.06 and 10.54 ppm are assigned to -OCH and the NH group while the aromatic protons are observed as a multiplet between δ 7.03 and 7.39 ppm (Figure S2). In the proton-decoupled 13C NMR spectrum, a single resonance at δ 21.4 ppm is seen for the six magnetically equivalent Me substituents. The C-atom of the ligated thione function resonates at δ 187.3 ppm (Figure S3). The ATR-IR spectrum features a broadened N-H vibration at 3160 cm−1, indicative of an intramolecular N-H···Br interaction, as was crystallographically evidenced for C1 (Figure S4). Upon the treatment of CP1 with an excess of PPh3, the dissociation of the coordinated thione ligand occurs, yielding finally, among other non-identified products, the cluster compounds [(PPh3)2Cu(μ2-Br)2CuPPh3] and [Cu4Br4(PPh3)4], which are already known in the literature, as evidenced by X-ray diffraction [19].
Since the compound CP1 is not soluble enough to be characterized by NMR spectroscopy, we examined the material crystallizing in the triclinic space group P 1 ¯ by an X-ray diffraction study performed at 100 K. As shown in Figure 1, a mono-dimensional ribbon has formed, which is constituted of rhomboid-shaped dinuclear {Cu(μ2-Br)2Cu} units that are interconnected through the bridging C=S groups of the L molecules. Each Cu(I) center of CP1 has thus a tetrahedral coordination sphere (neglecting the Cu···Cu interaction). The Cu–Cu contact within the {Cu(μ2-Br)2Cu} rhomboid of 2.8339(10) Å falls within the limit of the Van der Waals radii of two Cu atoms (2.8 Å) and can be considered as weakly bonding. However, without computation, it remains speculative to discuss the contribution of metallophilic interactions, which can occur both in molecular compounds or coordination polymers incorporating neighboring coinage metal centers [20,21,22].
Similar values have been reported for the 1D CPs [{Cu(μ2-Br)2Cu}{μ2-PhC(=S)NH2}]n and [{Cu(μ2-Br)2Cu}(μ-PhS(CH2)3SPh)2]n, in which the metal centers within the rhomboid clusters are separated by 2.857(3) and 2.7851(12) Å, respectively [23,24]. For the molecular compounds [{Cu(μ2-Br)2}(1-oxa-4,7-dithiacyclononane)2] (2.852(1) Å), [{Cu(μ2-Br)2{dibenzo[e,m][1,4,8,11]dioxadithia-cyclotetradecine-S,S’}2] (2.919(7) Å), and the supramolecular compound tetrakis(4,5-bis(methylsulfanyl)-1,3-dithiole-2-thione)-bis(μ2-bromo)dicopper (2.893(1) Å), the Cu···Cu interaction lies in a similar range [16,25,26]. A further example is the thione-bridged dinuclear complex [Cu2Br2(μ-S-mimzSH)21-S-mimzSH)2] (2.877(6) Å), obtained by the reaction of CuBr with 1-methyl-1,3-imidazoline-2-thione (mimzSH) in a 1:2 molar ratio [27].
This is in contrast with the recently described iodido analog [{Cu(μ2-I)2Cu}{μ2-MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph}2]n CP2, for which a much shorter Cu–Cu separation of only 2.6563(7) Å was evidenced [17]. The C=S bond is slightly elongated with respect to that of non-ligated MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph (1.711(5) vs. 1.6708(11) Å) [28].
Noteworthy is also the occurrence of the secondary N-H···Br interaction of 2.62(6) Å (dN ···Br 3.440(4) Å, indicated by the red dashed lines in Figure 1. This interaction is noticeably shorter and in consequence stronger than the weak intramolecular N-H···I contacts of 2.748 Å and 2.803 Å encountered for CP2 [17]. A similar systematic shortening of the intramolecular N-H···X bonding occurring in [(Ph3P)2Cu{MeOC(=S)N(H)Ph}X] (X = I, Br, Cl) and giving rise to six-member cycles has also been evidenced recently by us (see Scheme 1) [17]. Note that in the latter case, this intramolecular hydrogen bonding is even stronger for the molecular bromido complex C1 compared to CP1 (2.51(2) vs. 2.62(6)). Furthermore, a loose intramolecular S···H contact of 2.672 Å occurs between the sulfur atom and the H atom of the NH group.
In the packing, the ribbons of CP1 are aligned in a co-parallel arrangement and are running along the a axis (Figure 2). There are also weak supramolecular interchain contacts between Br and the H atom of C7 of the aryl cycle (C7-H7··· Br 2.919 Å).
To check the phase purity of this material, a grounded sample has been analyzed by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). The experimental PXRD pattern matches well with the simulated ones, confirming the homogeneity of the phases. A comparison of the PXRD patterns of CP1 is illustrated in Figure 3.

3. Experimental Section

4. Conclusions

We have crystallographically evidenced that CuBr reacts like CuI with a stoichiometric amount of O-methyl-N-phenylthiocarbamate to yield a halide-bridged mono-dimensional coordination polymer. We are currently extending this facile preparation of polymeric materials to other O-alkyl N-arylthiocarbamates, such as MeOC(=S)N(H)Cy, and are investigating the splitting of the polymer chain by other P and As donor ligands.
