Authors

For the first time, three new copper(II) complexes - [CuL 4 Cl]Cl, [CuL 4 Br]Br, and [CuL 4 (SO 4 )] - were synthesized based on 2-
amino-5-(prenylthio)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (L) at an M:L molar ratio of 1:4. Ligand L was obtained by S-alkylation of 2-amino-5-
mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole with prenyl bromide. The composition of the complexes was confirmed by elemental analysis, XRF,
and SEM–EDX methods. Their structures were investigated using IR spectroscopy, TGA/DSC, and SC-XRD. The [CuL 4 Cl]Cl
complex has a tetragonal-pyramidal geometry, with coordination occurring through the N3 atom of the thiadiazole ring. The
elongation of the apical Cu···Cl and Cu···Br bonds is explained by the Jahn–Teller effect characteristic of the Cu(II) ion. DFT
calculations also confirmed the preferential coordination through the N3 atom.
