Intramolecular NH ⋯ S hydrogen bond in o-acylamino substituted benzenethiolate iron(II) and cobalt(II) complexes
Abstract
The crystal structures of (NEt4)2[FeII(o-pabt)4](o-pabt =o-pivaloylaminobenzenethiolato) and (NEt4)2[CoII(o-pabt)4] show the presence of NH ⋯ S hydrogen bonds which contribute to the positive shift of redox potential and the through-bonding isotropic-contact shift.
