English Abstract
Abstract: Reaction of the 1,3-diisobutyl thiourea (L) with MX [M = Cu, Ag and X = Cl, NO3] provide polynuclear heteroleptic complexes [Cu3L3Cl3] (1), [Ag2L6](NO3)2 (2) and [Ag6L8Cl4] (3). All complexes were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The solid-state crystal of these complexes (1–3) were determined by single crystal XRD. Which shows that complex (1) is tri-nuclear with trigonal planer arrangement, complex (2) is binuclear with four membered metalacyclic ring and complex (3) is hexa-nuclear. Complexes (1–3) are tested for their free radical scavenging activity by using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radical (DPPH) showing moderate potential.
