Notes:
The molecular structures of nine transition metal tetrazolethiolates have been determined by X-ray structure determinations. The ligand is invariably coordinated through its sulfur atom to the metal center [M = PdII, CuI, AgI, AuI, AuIII, and Hg]. The M-S-C bond angles vary considerably, but this cannot be correlated with variations in the C-S bond lengths. Intermolecular association occurs for Ph3PAu(SCN4Me) via Au-S contacts, leading to dimeric strands in the solid state. The copper compound (Ph3P)3Cu4(SCN4Me)4 (5), possesses a rather asymmetric structure: one Cu atom is tricoordinated by 3 sulfur atoms, the other three are tetracoordinated by P and N as well as by S atoms.
