Effect of Pd(II) and Ni(II) coordination compounds with 4-amino-3-mercapto-5-methyl-1,2,4-triazole on the mitochondrial dehydrogenases activity.

Pd(I) and Ni(II) complex compounds: [Pd(AMMT)2]Cl2 (1), [Pd(AMMT)4]Cl2 (2) and [Ni(AMMT)2(H2O)](NO3)2 (3) with 4-amino-3-mercapto-5-methyl-1,2,4-triazole (AMMT) have been synthesized. The spectral characteristics of 1, 2 were studied by 1H (13C) NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction studies established that all complexes contain the AMMT molecule, which are coordinated to the central metal ion in the thione tautomeric form.
