Abstract
Abstract 2,5-(Dibenzothiazolin-2-yl)thiophene has been synthesized by the reaction of 2,5-thiophenedicarboxaldehyde and o -aminobenzenethiol. It reacts as a neutral ligand with Pd(II). However, it reacts as a dianion with Cu(II), Ag(I), Cd(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II), suggesting that the ligand is bonded as the conjugate base of the Schiff base 2,5-thiophenediylbis{N-(pheylen-2-thiol)aldimine}. Its behavior with Hg(II), Ru(III), Pt(II), Rh(III) and Ni(II) involves the opening of one of the thiazoline rings of the ligand.
