Electronic supporting information for the analysis and interpretation of sulfur K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge spectra of thiourea free ligand and its [Zn(TU)4]2+, [Co(TU)4]2+, and [Ni(TU)6]2+ complexes.
Sulfur K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) was employed to experimentally define the nature of coordinative bond between thiourea (TU) or thiocarbamide ligand and Zn2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ ions in distorted tetrahedral and octahedral homoleptic coordination environments. Comparisons of XAS spectra of the free TU ligand, [Zn(TU)4]2+, [Co(TU)4]2+, and [Ni(TU)6]2+ complexes clearly identify spectral features emerging from the structural non-innocent TM2+–S(TU) bonding. Quantitative analysis of pre-edge intensities describes the covalency of Ni2+– and Co2+–S(TU) bonding to be at most 23% and 9% as expressed by the S 3p contributions per 3d electron hole. Using relevant Ni2+ complexes with dithiocarbamate and thioether ligands, we evaluated the empirical S 1s→3p transition dipole integrals developed for sulfur ligands and its dependence on heteroatom substitutions. With the aid of density functional theory-based ground electronic state calculations, we found evidence for the need of using a transition dipole that is dependent on the presence of conjugated heteroatom (N) substitution in the S-ligands.
