Synthesis, characterization and computational studies of Zn complex based on the 8-hydroxyquinoline group containing benzimidazole.

A novel fluorescent zinc complex with 8-hydroxyquinoline containing benzimidazole ligands has been designed and synthesized. Its emission, IR spectroscopy, thermo-gravimetric analysis as well as electrochemical properties have been studied. The solid-state structures were determined single crystal X-ray diffraction and powder X-ray diffraction.

5-Sulfanyl-idene-2H,5H-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d][1,3]dithiol-2-one.

The title mol-ecule, C(4)OS(5), is essentially planar, with an r.m.s.

Thieno[3,4-d][1,3]dithiole-2-thione.

In the title compound, C(5)H(2)S(4), the terminal monocyclic S atom deviates by 0.117 (1) Å from the mean plane of the other non-H atoms (r.m.
