Abstract:
Five metal dithiocarbamate complexes [M(PTHIQDTC)2] [where PTHIQDTC is (S)-1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline dithiocarbamate anion and M is Ni(II) (1), Sn(II) (2), Hg(II) (3), Pb(II) (4) and Zn(II) (5)] were synthesized from the reaction of MX2 (X is Cl- for 1-3 and OAc- for 4-5) with ligand of triethylammonium (S)-1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline dithiocarbamate [Et3NH][PTHIQDTC] in methanolic solution at room temperature. The five complexes were characterized by IR, 1H and13C NMR, mass spectrometry, elemental analysis and TGA analysis. Recrystallization of [Zn(PTHIQDTC)2] (5) in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) converts 5 to [Zn(PTHIQDTC)2(DMSO)] (6). The structure of complex 6 has been determined by X-ray crystallography. The X-ray structural analysis of 6 indicated that the zinc(II) is five-coordinated in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal by four S atoms from two (S)-1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline dithiocarbamate anion ligands (PTHIQDTC) and one O atom from DMSO.

Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can...
