COMPLEXATION REACTIONS OF RhIII, RuIII, PdII, AND PtII WITH 1H-1,2,4-TRIAZOLE-3-THIOL.

New complexes of RhIII, RuIII, PdII and PtII with 1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol have been prepared and characterized by spectroscopy [IR, UV-Vis, 1H NMR and 13C NMR] and micro-analysis. The results are consistent with the general formula M(HTAZ)2Cl·(H2O), [M=RhIII and RuIII], M(HTAZ)2(H2O)2 and [M=PdII and PtII]. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
