The reaction of silver(I) ions with organic compounds containing the HN–C
S grouping. Part II. Some thiourea derivatives
Abstract
The formation of some sparingly soluble silver(I) complexes with thiourea and some of its derivatives (HL) is investigated. Thiourea, thiosemicarbazide, guanylthiourea, and dithiobiuret all give polymeric [Ag2(HL)3](NO3)2 species. Dithiobiuret also forms AgL in non-acidified solutions. Infrared studies are used to establish the bonding in the complexes.
