(Benzenecarbothioamide-κS)pentacarbonyltungsten(0)

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [W(C7H7NS)(CO)5], comprises two independent molecules. In each, the W atom is coordinated by five CO groups and the S atom of the benzencarbothioamide ligand in a distorted octahedral geometry. The crystal packing can be described as undulating layers of W(CO)5 and benzenecarbothioamide parallel to (001). In the crystal, components are linked via intermolecular N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds to form a dimeric chains along the [010] direction. Intramolecular N—H...C interactions are also observed.
