Neue Polyiodide des Caesiums mit Doppel‐ und Tripeldecker‐Kationen, [Cs(Benzo‐18‐Krone‐6)2]Ix und [Cs2(Benzo‐18‐Krone‐6)3](Ix)2 (x = 3, 5)

New Polyiodides of Cesium containing Double and Triple Decker Cations, [Cs(benzo‐18‐crown‐6)₂]I_x and [Cs₂(benzo‐18‐crown‐6)₃](I_x)₂ (x = 3, 5) [Cs(b18c6)₂]I_x (x = 3 (1) , 5 (3) ) and [Cs₂(b18c6)₃](I_x)₂ (x = 3 (2) , 5 (4) ) (b18c6 = benzo‐18‐crown‐6) have been synthesized by the reaction of benzo‐18‐crown‐6 (C₁₆H₂₄O₆), cesium iodide (CsI) and iodine (I₂) in acetonitrile ( 1 ), ethanol/dichloromethane ( 2 , 4 ) and 2‐methoxyethanol ( 3 ).

As expected, double decker cations centered by Cs atoms, [Cs(b18c6)₂]⁺, are found in the structures of ( 1 ) and ( 3 ). In contrast, the triple decker cation found in ( 2 ) and ( 4 ) is less common. The triiodide anions of ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) can be regarded as normal and the chain‐type pentaiodide anions of ( 3 ) and ( 4 ) fall into the known systematic sequence of these anions. The differences in the connectivity of the crystallographically independent I₅^? anions in ( 4 ) are surprising with respect to the fact that, so far, independent pentaiodide anions do not show variations in their scheme of connectivity within one crystal structure.

Synthesis,Characterization, and Crystal Structure of a Chromium(III)‐Complex Containing 2,6‐Pyridinedicarboxylic Acid and 1,10‐Phenanthroline

The reaction of solution 2,6‐pyridinedicarboxylic acid and 1,10‐phenanthroline ( 1 ) with CrCl₃·6H₂O led to the complex [Cr(phen)(pydc)(H₂O)][Cr(pydc)₂]·4H₂O ( 2 ) (phen is 1,10‐phenanthroline and pydcH₂ is 2,6‐pyridinedicarboxylic acid). 2 was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and single‐crystal structure determination.
