Crystal structures of methyl and benzyl 5-ferrocenyl-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyrazoline-1-dithiocarboxylate.

Reactions of E-4-ferrocenylpent-3-en-2-one with S-methyldithiocarbazate or S-benzyldithiocarbazate result in the formation of methyl 5-ferrocenyl-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyrazoline-1-dithiocarboxylate ( 1) or benzyl 5-ferrocenyl-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyrazoline-1-dithiocarboxylate ( 2). The single crystals of both products are obtained and their structures are identified by X-ray diffraction method with triclinic P-1 space groups. The cell parameters for compound 1 are as follows: a = 7.7029(8) Å, b = 10.1631(11) Å, c = 10.7305(12) Å, α = 101.3270(10)°, β = 90.6740(10)°, γ = 94.8390(10)°, and V = 820.40(15) Å. For compound 2, the crystallographic data are: a = 7.953(3) Å, b = 10.970(5) Å, c = 12.534(3) Å, α = 84.718(5)°, β = 81.651(3)°, γ = 76.274(4)Å, and V = 1049.1(7) Å. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
