HATU (0.5 g) was dissolved in 10 ml of a hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution. An exothermal reaction occurred with evolution of colourless gas. The product was obtained in the form of colourless crystals on slow evaporation of the reaction mixture. Compounds (I) and (II) formed when 3 or 30% hydrogen peroxide solutions were used, respectively. Analyses: for (I), found: C 20.7, H 3.3, N 48.1, S 28.0%; C2H4N4S requires: C 20.7, H 3.4, N 48.3, S 27.6%; for (2), found: C 13.1, H 4.3, N 30.9, S 14.4%; C2H8N4O5S requires: C 12.0, H 4.0, N 28.0, S 16.0%.
All H atoms were easily found in a difference Fourier map. For (I), all H-atom positions and isotropic displacement parameters were refined [N—H = 0.813 (19)–0.86 (2) Å]. For (II), DFIX restraints were used for all N—H bond lengths (0.87 Å with an allowed deviation of 0.002 [or 0.02?]). Subsequently, the parameters for H atoms involved in N—H bonds were constrained using the AFIX 3 constraint. The hydrogen sulfate H atom was found to be disordered over two positions. Half-occupancy factors were assumed for both positions and AFIX 147 constraints were used for both disorder components. All H atoms were refined with Ueq set at 1.2 Ueq (parent atom). In the final difference maps the following highest peaks were found: for (I) the maximum is 0.76 Å from atom C1, and for (II) the maximum is 0.69 Å from atom O21 and 0.86 Å from atom S1 atom.

1-(Diaminomethylene)thiourea (HATU) is a derivative of biuret, in which one O atom has been notionally replaced by an S atom while the remaining amide group has been replaced by –CH(NH2)2. This simple molecule has attracted interest in its use as a starting compound to obtain the so-called `metallacages', e.g. [Ni6(ATU)8Cl][ClO4]3 (where ATU is the deprotonated form of HATU; Diaz et al., 2004; Gale & Quesada, 2006; Gimeno & Vilar, 2006; Lankshear & Beer, 2006). Such compounds are formed only in the presence of chloride ions, so that the reaction could serve as a method of colorimetric chloride detection. HATU has also been used as a component of resins chelating such ions as Ag+ (Trochimczuk & Kolarz, 2000). The reported transition metal complexes containing HATU as a ligand with known structure include the complexes of Ni (Kabir et al., 2002; Vilar et al., 1998, 1999; Diaz et al., 2004), Pd (Chakrabarty et al., 1990; Doxiadi et al., 2003), Ni and Pd (Sang-Ting et al., 2001; Vilar et al., 1999; Doxiadi et al., 2003). Metal complexes with HATU of so far unknown structure include the nitrosyl complexes with Co, Fe and Ru (Roy & Saha, 1980); the complexes with Co and Hg (Poddar & Ray, 1952); and the complexes with Cu, Ag and Zn (Roy & Saha, 1980). The structures of HATU itself and of some simple salts derived from HATU have recently been reported (Janczak & Perpétuo, 2008a,b; Perpétuo & Janczak, 2008).
As a thiourea, HATU can be expected undergo oxidation reactions yielding different products depending on the reaction conditions. Structure determinations undertaken so far concern the oxidation products only of substituted thioureas (e.g. Mamaeva & Bakibaev, 2003). In particular, Butler et al. (1978) determined the crystal structure of the so-called Hector's base (Hector, 1889), 5-imino-4-phenyl-3-phenylamino-4H-1,2,4-thiadiazoline, which was controversial for 100 years. Hector's bases are formed on oxidation of monoarylthioureas and on base-catalyzed rearrangement yield 3,5-bis(arylamino)-1,2,4-thiadiazoles, known as Dost's bases (Christophersen et al., 1975; Butler et al., 1980, 1986).
Chilmana & Simoy (2004) investigated the kinetics of 1-(diaminomethylene)thiourea oxidation with bromate(V) and iodate(VII) ions. In the case of the reaction with bromate(V) ions, 1-(diaminomethylene)urea was mentioned as the final product, whereas the reaction with iodate(VII) ions yields 3,5-diamino- 1,2,4-thiadiazole, (I). The latter oxidation product is interestingly related to HATU as its cyclization product; however, no crystal structure determination has been attempted so far.
In this paper the crystal structure of (I), obtained as a HATU oxidation product with 3% aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide, is reported. When 30% hydrogen peroxide was used, compound (II) could be isolated. Both (I) and (II) are of importance not only with respect to crystal engineering, but also in the design of new synthetic routes leading to HATU transition metal complexes. Compound (I) could be considered as the product of N—S intramolecular bond formation in the 1-(diaminomethylene)thiourea molecule (Fig. 1 and Table 1). This cyclization apparently does not lead to charge delocalization. As a result, the N1—C1 and N1—C2 bond lengths are not equal (Table 1). A literature survey leads to the conclusion that the most similar compound with available crystal structure data is 3,5-bis(diphenylamino)-1,2,4- thiadiazole (Senda & Maruha, 1985), investigated during systematic studies on oxidation of substituted thioureas by the iron(III) ion. This compound can be considered as the derivative of (I) with both amine groups replaced by two phenyl rings. The 1,2,4-thiadiazole ring geometric parameters are in good agreement in the two compounds. In (I), all atoms constituting the 1,2,4-thiadiazole ring lie in one plane, whereas the two amine substituents (containing atoms N2 and N3) deviate from the ring plane by 0.036 (2) and 0.054 (2) Å (above and below the plane), respectively.
Molecules of (I) form hydrogen-bonded dimers linked through an N2—H21···N1i (symmetry code as in Table 2) hydrogen bond to form R22(8) rings (Etter et al., 1990), which are further linked through an N3—H31···N4ii hydrogen bond with the formation of a second type of R22(8) ring (Fig. 2). The resulting molecular chains along [001] adopt a herringbone-like arrangement in (I). Adjacent chains form very weak contacts between atom H32 at (x, y, z) and atom S1 at (-x + 3/2, y - 1/2, -z + 1/2).
Compound (II) is a salt consisting of 1-(diaminomethylene)oxouron-1-ium cations and hydrogensulfate anions. The cation, in comparison to the similar [HATUH]+ cation present, for example, in 1-(diaminomethylene)thiouron-1-ium chloride (Perpétuo & Janczak, 2008), differs by the presence of an O atom (O1) instead of an S atom (Fig. 3). Atom O1 is involved in an intramolecular N—H···O hydrogen bond as an acceptor (Table 3). Thus a hydrogen-bonded ring consisting of atoms N1, C1, C2, O1 and N4, lying in one plane, is formed. Atoms N2 and N3 from the amine groups bonded to atoms C1 and C2 deviate from this plane by 0.028 (2) and 0.035 (2) Å, respectively. The 1-(diaminomethylene)oxouron-1-ium cation geometrical parameters are consistent with the data reported for other salts [e.g. the sulfate hydrate (Lotsch & Schnick, 2005) and hydrogen chloride (Scoponi et al., 1991)]. It is assumed that the cation is stabilized by π-electron delocalization, which is reflected by the C1—N1 and C2—N1 bond length values [1.406 (2) and 1.366 (2) Å, respectively].
In the hydrogensulfate anion, the H atom is statistically disordered over two half-occupied positions; in one position it is bonded to atom O31 and in the second position to atom O21. In both positions, this H atom participates in O—H···O hydrogen bonds, with the hydrogensulfate anion O atom involved as acceptor, to form anionic chains (Table 3). Similar hydrogen-bonded anionic chains were described for 1-(diaminomethylene)thiouron-1-ium hydrogensulfate by Janczak & Perpétuo (2008b). Compound (II) is stabilized by an extensive network of N—H···O and O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Fig. 4). All amine H atoms from the organic cation are involved in these hydrogen bonds as donors. Characteristic motifs formed by the N2—H21···O11, N1—H1···O11 and N3—H32···O41 hydrogen bonds could be distinguished. Such motifs, within which R21(8) rings can be detected, are also present, for example, in 1-(diaminomethylene)thiouron-1-ium dihydrogenphosphate and dihydrogenarsenate (Janczak & Perpétuo, 2008b).
