Arab K. EL-Qisairi and Hanan A. Qaseer

Abstract: The reactions of 3,6-bis(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (abbreviated as dptz) with AuCl₃.3H₂O and AuCl₃.3H₂O in the presence of sodium salts (NaX, X = BrG, NO₃G, SCNG) have been investigated. The new complexes [AuCl₂(dptz)]Cl.1/2H₂O, [AuBr₂(dptz)]Br.1/2C₂H₅OH, [AuCl(NO₃)(dptz)]Cl.1/2C₂H₅OH and [AuCl(SCN)(dptz)]Cl have been characterized by elemental analyses, conductivity measurements, infrared, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR.
