in two possible conformational forms whereas three differ-ent conformations are possible for NN1015840-dialkyl substitutedthiourea [8] Several studies have been done to understandthe coordination chemistry of this type of ligand and itsbiological activities [7ndash10] and recently the use of the d10metal complexes as precursors formetal sulfide nanoparticles[11ndash14] Group 12 coordination compounds of thiourea havereceived attention in recent years for their nonlinear opticalproperties [9 10] and their use as single source precursorsfor the preparation of semiconducting materials based onmetal sulfide (MS) through thermal decomposition of thecorresponding complexes [2 11ndash15] In this study the syn-thesis characterization and thermal and single crystal X-ray

3 Results and Discussion

31 Molecular Structure of [Cd(detu)2(OOCCH

3)2]sdotH2O The

molecular structure of the complex with atom numberingscheme is shown in Figure 1 The crystal data and structurerefinement are presented inTable 1 and selected bond lengthsand angles are given in Table 2 The cadmium in the molec-ular structure is a six-coordinate CdS

2O4form in which the

Cd ion is coordinated to two monodentate diethylthioureasand two chelating acetate ions The coordination polyhedralaround Cd(II) is a distorted octahedron which might be dueto the small bite angles of the acetate ions O(2)ndashCd(1)ndashO(1)[5451(6)∘] and O(4)ndashCd(1)ndashO(3) [5420(6)] This also ledto deviation of trans O(4)ndashCd(1)ndashO(1) O(2)ndashCd(1)ndashS(1) andO(3)ndashCd(1)ndashS(2) bond angles significantly from 180∘ (rangesfrom 14121(6)∘ to 15148(4)∘) The diethylthiourea ligandsare cis to each other and SndashCd(1)ndashS bond angle around thecadmium ion is 10283(3)∘ which deviates considerably from90∘ This may be ascribed to the steric interaction betweenthe substituents on the diethylthiourea The CndashSndashCd bondangles of 10882(8)∘ and 11159(8)∘ are slightly greater than thetetrahedral value

The SndashCndashN and NndashCndashN bond angles ranges from11851(17)∘ to 12162(17)∘ and are within the expected rangeof tetrahedral The CndashN bonds (1327(3) A to 1458(3) A) andCndashS bonds 1727(2) A to 1730(2) A are intermediate betweensingle and double bonds This may be attributed to thedelocalization of electron in the thioamide bonds [20 21]Thehydrogen bonding network within the molecule is betweenthe acetate oxygen atom and NH and acetate oxygen atomand the hydrogen atoms of water within the crystal lattice(Table 3) Each water molecule within the crystal lattice islinked to three cadmium complex units via intermolecularhydrogen bondsTheother intermolecular hydrogen bondingis between the acetate oxygen atom and the NH of the

3)2]sdotH2O

Recrystallization of the complex yielded well-defined crys-tals characterized by FTIR elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction Single crystal X-ray structure of thecompound revealed that the coordination geometry aroundthe Cd(II) is octahedron comprising of two diethylthiourealigands and two acetate ions acting as bidentate chelatingligands The single-source precursor route has been usedfor the preparation of CdS nanoparticles by thermolysis ofthe complex in hexadecylamine (HDA) to prepared HDA-capped nanoparticles The absorption spectrum showed blueshifts in their absorption band edges which clearly indicatedquantum confinement effect and the emission spectrumshowed characteristic band edge luminescence The broaddiffraction peaks of the XRD pattern showed the materialsto be of the nanometric size with predominantly hexagonalphaseTheTEMmicrographs showed theCdSmorphology to

be almost spherical shape with particle sizes ranging between5 and 19 nm

3 Results and Discussion

31 Molecular Structure of [Cd(detu)2(OOCCH

3)2]sdotH2O The

molecular structure of the complex with atom numberingscheme is shown in Figure 1 The crystal data and structurerefinement are presented inTable 1 and selected bond lengthsand angles are given in Table 2 The cadmium in the molec-ular structure is a six-coordinate CdS

2O4form in which the

Cd ion is coordinated to two monodentate diethylthioureasand two chelating acetate ions The coordination polyhedralaround Cd(II) is a distorted octahedron which might be dueto the small bite angles of the acetate ions O(2)ndashCd(1)ndashO(1)[5451(6)∘] and O(4)ndashCd(1)ndashO(3) [5420(6)] This also ledto deviation of trans O(4)ndashCd(1)ndashO(1) O(2)ndashCd(1)ndashS(1) andO(3)ndashCd(1)ndashS(2) bond angles significantly from 180∘ (rangesfrom 14121(6)∘ to 15148(4)∘) The diethylthiourea ligandsare cis to each other and SndashCd(1)ndashS bond angle around thecadmium ion is 10283(3)∘ which deviates considerably from90∘ This may be ascribed to the steric interaction betweenthe substituents on the diethylthiourea The CndashSndashCd bondangles of 10882(8)∘ and 11159(8)∘ are slightly greater than thetetrahedral value

The SndashCndashN and NndashCndashN bond angles ranges from11851(17)∘ to 12162(17)∘ and are within the expected rangeof tetrahedral The CndashN bonds (1327(3) A to 1458(3) A) andCndashS bonds 1727(2) A to 1730(2) A are intermediate betweensingle and double bonds This may be attributed to thedelocalization of electron in the thioamide bonds [20 21]Thehydrogen bonding network within the molecule is betweenthe acetate oxygen atom and NH and acetate oxygen atomand the hydrogen atoms of water within the crystal lattice(Table 3) Each water molecule within the crystal lattice islinked to three cadmium complex units via intermolecularhydrogen bondsTheother intermolecular hydrogen bondingis between the acetate oxygen atom and the NH of the

might be due to the overlap of the acetate ions with CndashNbond stretching vibrations The presence of multiple bandsin the region 552ndash672 cmminus1 can be attributed to the SndashCdndashOinteractions

Considering the DTG peak temperatures the first decom-position stage is due to entrapped solvent molecule Thermaldecomposition of related thiourea complexes reported in theliterature has indicated that the residue formed correspondsto the formation of CdS [22] Here the weight of the residuecalculated for CdS (368mg) agrees favourably with theexpected (365mg) The DTA curve shows two pronouncedendothermic peaks The first and sharp peak is due to themelting of the complex at a temperature of 145∘C Thesecond broad endothermic minimum which occurs at 182∘Crepresents the decomposition of the complex Comparing theTG curve with the DTA it could be inferred that the seconddecomposition which gave CdS commenced in the liquidphase after the melting of the sample

The cadmium complex produced particles in the hexag-onal phase with XRD patterns (Figure 5) indexed to 111 200220 311 and 331 for peaks with 2120579 values of 264 358 439516 and 705 respectively The peaks are generally broadindicative of nanoscale particles The TEM image of the CdSnanoparticles is presented in Figure 6 The nanoparticles arealmost spherical in shape A little aggregation is observedwhich could be ascribed to the effect of the small dimensionsand high surface energy associated with nanodimensionalparticlesThe sizes of the nanoparticles ranged between 5 and19 nm The SEM image of the prepared CdS nanoparticlesis shown in Figure 7 The CdS nanoparticles have sphericalmorphology and show an average agglomerate size Theagglomeration of the nanoparticlesmay arise from their smalldimension and high surface energy

4 Conclusions

Thereaction of cadmium acetate with diethylthiourea yieldedthe coordination complexes [Cd(detu)

2(OOCH

3)2]sdotH2O

Recrystallization of the complex yielded well-defined crys-tals characterized by FTIR elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction Single crystal X-ray structure of thecompound revealed that the coordination geometry aroundthe Cd(II) is octahedron comprising of two diethylthiourealigands and two acetate ions acting as bidentate chelatingligands The single-source precursor route has been usedfor the preparation of CdS nanoparticles by thermolysis ofthe complex in hexadecylamine (HDA) to prepared HDA-capped nanoparticles The absorption spectrum showed blueshifts in their absorption band edges which clearly indicatedquantum confinement effect and the emission spectrumshowed characteristic band edge luminescence The broaddiffraction peaks of the XRD pattern showed the materialsto be of the nanometric size with predominantly hexagonalphaseTheTEMmicrographs showed theCdSmorphology to

be almost spherical shape with particle sizes ranging between5 and 19 nm

The cadmium complex produced particles in the hexag-onal phase with XRD patterns (Figure 5) indexed to 111 200220 311 and 331 for peaks with 2120579 values of 264 358 439516 and 705 respectively The peaks are generally broadindicative of nanoscale particles The TEM image of the CdSnanoparticles is presented in Figure 6 The nanoparticles arealmost spherical in shape A little aggregation is observedwhich could be ascribed to the effect of the small dimensionsand high surface energy associated with nanodimensionalparticlesThe sizes of the nanoparticles ranged between 5 and19 nm The SEM image of the prepared CdS nanoparticlesis shown in Figure 7 The CdS nanoparticles have sphericalmorphology and show an average agglomerate size Theagglomeration of the nanoparticlesmay arise from their smalldimension and high surface energy

4 Conclusions

Thereaction of cadmium acetate with diethylthiourea yieldedthe coordination complexes [Cd(detu)

2(OOCH

3)2]sdotH2O

Recrystallization of the complex yielded well-defined crys-tals characterized by FTIR elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction Single crystal X-ray structure of thecompound revealed that the coordination geometry aroundthe Cd(II) is octahedron comprising of two diethylthiourealigands and two acetate ions acting as bidentate chelatingligands The single-source precursor route has been usedfor the preparation of CdS nanoparticles by thermolysis ofthe complex in hexadecylamine (HDA) to prepared HDA-capped nanoparticles The absorption spectrum showed blueshifts in their absorption band edges which clearly indicatedquantum confinement effect and the emission spectrumshowed characteristic band edge luminescence The broaddiffraction peaks of the XRD pattern showed the materialsto be of the nanometric size with predominantly hexagonalphaseTheTEMmicrographs showed theCdSmorphology to

be almost spherical shape with particle sizes ranging between5 and 19 nm

The cadmium complex produced particles in the hexag-onal phase with XRD patterns (Figure 5) indexed to 111 200220 311 and 331 for peaks with 2120579 values of 264 358 439516 and 705 respectively The peaks are generally broadindicative of nanoscale particles The TEM image of the CdSnanoparticles is presented in Figure 6 The nanoparticles arealmost spherical in shape A little aggregation is observedwhich could be ascribed to the effect of the small dimensionsand high surface energy associated with nanodimensionalparticlesThe sizes of the nanoparticles ranged between 5 and19 nm The SEM image of the prepared CdS nanoparticlesis shown in Figure 7 The CdS nanoparticles have sphericalmorphology and show an average agglomerate size Theagglomeration of the nanoparticlesmay arise from their smalldimension and high surface energy

Recrystallization of the complex yielded well-defined crys-tals characterized by FTIR elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction Single crystal X-ray structure of thecompound revealed that the coordination geometry aroundthe Cd(II) is octahedron comprising of two diethylthiourealigands and two acetate ions acting as bidentate chelatingligands The single-source precursor route has been usedfor the preparation of CdS nanoparticles by thermolysis ofthe complex in hexadecylamine (HDA) to prepared HDA-capped nanoparticles The absorption spectrum showed blueshifts in their absorption band edges which clearly indicatedquantum confinement effect and the emission spectrumshowed characteristic band edge luminescence The broaddiffraction peaks of the XRD pattern showed the materialsto be of the nanometric size with predominantly hexagonalphaseTheTEMmicrographs showed theCdSmorphology to

be almost spherical shape with particle sizes ranging between5 and 19 nm
