Nickel(II) 1,10-Phenanthroline complexes: cis-[Aqua(Bromo) bis (1,10-Phenanthroline)Nickel(II)] Bromide Trihydrate and ( tris (1,10-Phenanthroline)Nickel(II)] Bromide Octahydrate

[Ni(phen)₂(H₂O)Br]Br·3H₂O where phen is 1,10-phenanthroline, is a light-blue material which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with Z = 4, a = 10.4300(4), b = 25.310(2), c = 9.7790(9)?Å and β = 102.932(6)°. The structure was determined at ambient temperature from 5161 reflections with R = 0.0643 and R _w = 0.1306. The structure consists of a complex cation, a bromide anion and three waters of hydration. The Ni atom is pseudo-octahedral with a cis arrangement of Br and H₂O. This cis geometry persists in solution, as evidenced by ¹H NMR spectroscopy, although the Br may be replaced by another H₂O. [Ni(phen)₃]Br₂·8H₂O is a light-red material which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/m with Z = 8, a = 23.6320(11), b = 21.4880(13), c = 15.5470(9)?Å and β = 107.927(3)°. The structure was determined at 120?K from 6820 reflections with R = 0.0733 and R _w = 0.1022. The structure consists of a complex cation, two bromide anions and eight waters of hydration. The anions and waters are extensively disordered. The Ni atom is pseudo-octahedral.     

Crystal structures of ethylenediaminecadmium(II) tetracyanocadmate(II)-benzene(1/2) and ethylenediaminecadmium(II) tetracyanocadmate(II)

The crystal structure of ethylenediaminecadmium(II) tetracyanocadmate(II)-benzene(1/2),I, has been redetermined based on 1632 reflections collected anew for the crystal coated with epoxy resin, with a final conventionalR=0.038;I crystallizes in space groupP4₂22, witha=b=8.265(1) andc=15.512(3) Å, andZ=2. Ethylenediaminecadmium(II) tetracyanocadmate(II),II, is concluded to be identical with the residual metal complex host ofI, remaining after the liberation of the guest benzene molecules;II crystallizes from an aqueous solution containing bis- or tris-ethylenediaminecadmium(II) tetracyanocadmate(II) in space groupI4₁/acd, witha=b=14.366(1) andc=23.771(4) Å, andZ=16; refinement led to a conventionalR=0.043 for 1181 reflections. The bridging ethylenediamine ligand inI turns to a chelating one inII; dissociation and recombination should occur in the coordination sphere of the six-coordinate cadmium atom, whenII is derived fromI by the liberation of the guest molecules.

Einfluß des Lösungsmittels auf das Redoxverhalten von Tetrakis(triphenylphosphin)-platin(0), Tetrakis(triphenylphosphin)-palladium(0) und Tetrakis(triphenylphosphin)-nickel(0)

The redox behaviour of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)-platinum(0) [Pt(TPP)₄], tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)-palladium(0) [Pd(TPP)₄] and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)-nickel(0) [Ni(TPP)₄] has been studied in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), acetonitrile (AN), propanediol carbonate (PDC), N,N-dimethylthioformamide (DMTF) N-methylpyrrolidine-2-thione (NMTP) and nitromethane (NM). The platinum complex was found to undergo irreversible two electron oxidations with partial or complete loss of the ligands in all solvents but nitromethane. The palladium complex was also oxidized to the divalent form in the solvents studied except inPDC andNM where the complex was found to be polarographically inactive; Ni(TTP)₄ was reversibly or almost reversibly oxidized to a movovalent form inDMF, AN andDMTF followed by an irreversible oxidation to a divalent complex. Direct oxidation to the divalent form occurred inDMSO, no oxidation was observable inNMTP andPDC, decomposition took place in nitromethane. The half-wave potentials were recorded versus bisbiphenylchromium iodide (BBCr)I as an internal standard. The influence of the solvents on the redox behaviour and the dissociation of ligands is discussed.

SYNTHESIS AND STRUCTURES OF DICHLOROTETRAKIS-(PHENYLTHIOUREA) CADMIUM(II) AND CATENA-BIS(THIOCYANATE) BIS(PHENYLTHIOUREA)CADMIUM(II)

Abstract

Two new cadmium(II) complexes with phenylthiourea (PTU), namely Cd(PTU)₄Cl₂ (1) and [Cd₂(NCS)₂(μ₂-SCN)₂(PTU)₂(μ₂-PTU)₂] _n (2), have been prepared and characterized structurally by X-ray diffaction. Complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, with a = 27.057(13), b = 8.108(3), c = 16.751(8) Å, β = 114.46°, V = 3345(3) ų, Z = 4. Complex 2 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1, with a = 9.336(3), b = 14.686(5), c = 16.911(5) Å, α = 71.36(2), β = 84.31(2), γ = 72.470(10)°, V = 2095.0(12) ų Z = 4. The structural analysis shows that each metal atom in both the mononuclear complex 1 and polynuclear complex 2 is octahedrally coordinated by four sulfur atoms and two chloro ligands or two nitrogen atoms from the thiocyanate groups, respectively. The PTU ligand can serve as either a monodentate ligand or a μ₂-bridging ligand upon coordination to a metal atom.     

An Efficient Synthesis of Optically Pure (R)- and (S)-2-(aminomethyl)alanine ((R)- and (S)-ama) and (R)- and (S)-2-(aminomethyl)leucine ((R)- and (S)-aml)

An efficient synthesis of enantiomerically pure (R)- and (S)-2-(aminomethyl)alanine ((R)- and (S)-Ama) 1a and (R)- and (S)-2-(aminomethyl)leucine ((R)- and (S)-Aml) 1b is described (Schemes 1 and 2). Resolution of the racemic amino acids was achieved using L -phenylalanine cyclohexylamide ( 2 ) as chiral auxiliary. The free amino acids 1a, b were converted to the N^α-Boc,N^γ-Z-protected derivatives 11a, b (Scheme 3) ready for incorporation into peptides. Based on the three crystal structures of the diastereoisomeric peptides 8a, 8b , and 9b , the absolute configurations in both series were determined. β-Turn type-I geometries were observed for structures 8b and 9b , whereas 8a crystallized in an extended backbone conformation.     

Two polymorphs of chlorido(cyclohexyldiphenylphosphine)gold(I)

The title compound, [AuCl(C₁₈H₂₁P)], a monomeric two‐coordinate gold(I) complex, has been characterized at 100 K as two distinct monoclinic polymorphs, one from a single crystal, (Is), and one from a pseudo‐merohedrally twinned crystal, (It). The molecular structures in the two monoclinic [P2₁/n for (Is) and P2₁/c for (It)] polymorphs are similar; however, the packing arrangements in the two lattices differ considerably. The structure of (It) is pseudo‐merohedrally twinned by a twofold rotation about the a* axis.     

Inclusion of Poly(ethylene glycol)s by Crystalline (R)-(1-Naphthyl)glycyl-(R)-phenylglycine

Abstract

Crystallization of (R)-(1-naphthyl)glycyl-(R)-phenyl-glycine [(R,R)-1] in the presence of oligo(ethylene glycol) dimethyl ethers 2(n) or poly(ethylene glycol)s (PEGs, 3(M_n )) afforded inclusion compounds. The ratio of (R,R)-1/the guest polymer (2 or 3) was proportional to the length of the polymer chain. The crystal structure of a hepta(ethylene glycol) dimethyl ether-included compound was disclosed by X-ray crystallography which showed that (R,R)-1 molecules form a sheet and the guest molecule penetrates the crystal lattice of (R,R)-1 through a one-dimensional channel on the sheet. Powder X-ray analysis revealed that, regardless of the length of the guest polymer, the distance between the neighboring sheets remains unchanged (12.0–12.3 Å) in these inclusion crystals. By thermal analysis, it was shown that the decomposition points of these inclusion compounds became higher with the longer PEG included. The inclusion phenomenon enabled the fractionation of PEGs with various molecular weights, among which longer PEG was preferably included.     

Cacotheline as an oxidimetric reagent. Determination of Sn(II), Cu(I), Ti(III), Fe(II), V(II) and V(III)

Summary Sn(II), Ti(III), Cu(I), Fe(II), V(III) and V(II) can be titrated potentiometrically with cacotheline in 1–4M hydrochloric acid, 0.5–2M hydrochloric acid, 0.5–1.5M sulphuric acid in presence of 4 ml of 10% EDTA solution in a total volume of 50 ml, 9–10M phosphoric acid, 4–8M acetic acid and 3–8M acetic acid respectively. Cacotheline can be used for the assay of tin plate and solder. The cacotheline undergoes a 2-electron reduction reaction. A cacotheline solution (0.005M) in 0.02M hydrochloric acid is fairly stable for several months. The conditional redox potentials of cacotheline have been determined in sulphuric, phosphoric and acetic acid medium.

Crystallographic data for C₇H₇IrO₄ are: a = 6.4798(5) ?, b = 7.7288(5) ?, c = 9.1629(10) ?, α = 105.738(2)°, β = 90.467(3)°, γ = 100.658(2)°, space group 1, P , V= 433.24(6) ?³, Z = 2, d _calc = 2.662 g/cm³, R = 0.0167. The structure is built of isolated mononuclear molecules. The central iridium atom has a square coordination environment formed by two oxygen atoms that belong to the acetylacetonate ligand and two carbon atoms of carbonyl groups. The average Ir-O and Ir-C bond lengths are 2.045(3) ? and 1.832(6) ? respectively. Molecules are stacked in such a way that the planes of coordination squares turn out to be parallel to the Ir...Ir distances between the nearest neighbors in the stack of 3.242 ? and 3.260 ?.

(1-Methoxyvinyl)boronic and (1-chlorovinyl)boronic esters

(s)-Pinanediol (1-methoxyvinyl)boronate ( 1 ) was prepared from (1-methoxyvinyl)-lithium and triisopropyl borate followed by (s)-pinanediol. Attempted reaction with (dichloromethyl)lithium failed, and reaction with butylmagnesium chloride followed by acetic acid yielded a mixture of diastereomers of (s)-pinanediol (1-methoxy-1-methyl-pentyl)boronate ( 2 ). (s)-Pinanediol (1-chlorovinyl)boronate ( 4 ) has been prepared by dehydrochlorination of (s)-pinanediol 1,1-dichloroethylboronate ( 3 ) with lithium chloride in dimethylformamide. Reaction of 4 with (dichloromethyl)lithium yielded (s)-pinanediol (1S)-(1,2-dichloroallyl)boronate ( 5 ) in 92% diastereomeric excess. Reaction of 5 with RMgX resulted in a 3 : 1 ratio of displacement of the 1-Cl from carbon by R to displacement of the entire 1,2-dichloroallyl group from boron by R. With lithium benzyl oxide, displacement of the 1-Cl from 5 failed entirely. Reaction of 4 with (dibromomethyl)lithium was inefficient and yielded a gross mixture of diastereomers.

Structures of Six Coleons (Diterpenoids) from Solenostemon monostachys (P. BEAUV .) BRIQ . (Labiatae) The above mentioned African labiate has been investigated for its leaf-gland pigments. Besides the already known coleons C ( 1 ) and H ( 2 ), 2a-formoxy-coleon C ( 3 ), 12β-O-acetyl-coleon Z ( 7 ), 12β-O-acetyl-7-O-formyl-7-O-desacetyl-coleon Z ( 8 ) and a not separated mixture of 17-acetoxy-12β-O-acetyl-coleon Z ( 9a ) and 12β-O-acetyl-17-formoxy-coleon Z ( 9b ) have been isolated.     

Novel complexes of 5-(4-carboxyl)phenylene-methanaminophenyl-10,15,20-tri-phenylporphyrin with zinc(II), iron(III), manganese(III) and zinc(II)–iron(III), zinc(II)–manganese(III) supramolecular self-assembly by hydrogen bonding

5-(p-Carboxyl)phenylene-methanaminophenyl-10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin (p-CPTPP) and its Zn^II[Zn(p-CPTPP)], Fe^III[Fe^III(p-CPTPP)Cl], Mn^III[Mn^III(p-CPTPP)Cl] complexes were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H-n.m.r., i.r. and u.v.–vis. spectroscopy. The behaviour of the supramolecular self-assemblies, Zn(p-CPTPP)–Fe^III(p-CPTPP)Cl and Zn(p-CPTPP)–Mn^III(p-CPTPP)Cl, were studied by steady-state fluorescence spectroscopic titration and u.v.–vis. spectra. The formation constants were determined from the data of fluorescence spectroscopic titration. The fact that the Zn(p-CPTPP)–Mn^III(p-CPTPP)Cl system has a higher formation constant than the Zn(p-CPTPP)–Fe^III(p-CPTPP)Cl system is discussed.     

Heterotri- and -tetrametallic alkoxides of chromium(III) containing aluminium(III), gallium(III) and niobium(V)

CrCl₃ · 3THF reacts with two equivalents of potassium alkoxometallates K{M(OPr ⁱ ) _x } [M = Al(A), Ga(B), x = 4; M = Nb(C), x = 6] to give heterobimetallic chloride isopropoxides [Cr{M(OPr ⁱ ) _x }₂Cl(THF)] [M = Al(A – 1), Ga(B – 1), and Nb(C – 1)], in which the replacement of the chloride with an appropriate alkoxometallate (tetraisopropoxoaluminate, tetraisopropoxogallate, or hexaisopropoxoniobate) results in the formation of novel heterotrimetallic derivatives. The 'single pot synthesis of an heterotetrametallic isopropoxide [Cr{Nb(OPr ⁱ )₆}{Al(OPr ⁱ )₄}{Ga(OPr ⁱ )₄}] (7) has been carried out by the sequential addition of (A), (B), and (C) to a benzene suspension of CrCl₃ · 3THF. Alcoholysis of [Cr{Al(OPr ⁱ )₄}₂{Nb(OPr ⁱ )₆}] (1) and [Cr{Al(OPr ⁱ )₄}₂{Ga(OPr ⁱ )₄}] (5) with t-BuOH has also been studied and the derivatives characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight determinations, spectroscopic [Electronic, i.r., ²⁷Al-n.m.r.] and magnetic susceptibility studies.     

t-Butyl isocyanide complexes of rhenium(I), chromium(O), tungsten(O,I) and platinum(II); X-ray crystal structures of bis(t-butylisocyanide)- tris(trimethylphosphine)chlororhenium(I) and tris(t-butylisocyanide)bis(trimethyl- phosphine)chlororhenium(I)

The reduction of ReCl₄(THF)₂ in the presence of excess t-butylisocyanide by sodium amalgam produces pentakis(t-butylisocyanide)chlororhenium(I), which has been converted to the corresponding methyl and ethyl derivatives. The reaction of pentakis(trimethylphosphine)chlororhenium(I) with Bu^tNC gives partially substituted complexes, ReCl(CNBu^t)₂(PMe₃)3 and ReCl(CNBu^t)₃(PMe₃)₂. The structures of both compounds have been determined by X-ray methods. Octahedral ReCl(CNBu^t)₂(PMe₃)₃ has trans isocyanide groups with one linear [C---N---C = 175(1)°] and one slightly bent [C---N---C = 159(1)°]. The Re---C bond lengths are equal within experimental error [2.004(7), 2.003(7)Å]. In the octahedral ReCl(CNBu^t)₃(PMe₃)₂, for which the structure is not well defined, due to disorder, the unique isocyanide trans to chlorine is considerably bent at the nitrogen atom [C--- ---C = 141(6)°] and appears to show the shortest Re---C bond length, 1.94(5) vs 2.02(5)Å for the other two isocyanides which are mutually trans. Protonation of these two isocyanide complexes with fluoroboric acid gives, respectively, the salts [ReCl(CNBu^t)CNHBu^t(PMe₃)₃]BF₄ and [ReCl(CNBu^t)₂CNHBu^t(PMe₃)₂]BF₄, whose configurations have been determined by NMR spectroscopy. The reduction by sodium amalgam of Cr₂(CO₂Me)₄ in tetrahydrofuran in presence of Bu^tNC gives a high yield of Cr(CNBu^t)₆ while similar reduction of the dimeric tungsten(II) complex of the anion (mhp) of 2-methyl-6- hydroxypyridine gives W(CNBu^t)₆. Interaction of W₂(mhp)₄ in methanol-ether with Bu^tNC gives a tungsten(I) complex W₂(η-mhp)₂(Bu^tNC)₄, which may be an intermediate in the reductive cleavage reaction. Interaction of cis-PtMe₂(PMe₃)₂ with Bu^tNC leads only to replacement of one PMe₃ group to give the complex cis-PtMe₂(PMe₃)(CNBu^t).     

BisN(chlorophenyl)dithiocarbamato complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II), palladium(II) and platinum(II)

Summary Cobalt(II), nickel(II), palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes witho-(OCD),m-(MCD) andp-chlorophenyldithiocarbamate (PCD) ligands have been synthesised and characterised by chemical analyses, molecular weight determinations, conductance measurements, electronic and i.r. spectral studies. The thermal behaviour of the complexes has been studied by t.g. and d.t.a. techniques in a static air atmosphere and heats of reaction of different decomposition steps have been calculated from the d.t.a. curves. The thermal decomposition products of the complexes were identified by elemental analyses and i.r. spectra.     

Crystal Structures of (18-Crown-6)-(2-Hydroxyethylammonium) Tetracyanonickelate(Ii) and 10-Amino-Decylammonium Tetracyanonickeltate(II)

Abstract

The crystal structures of the two title tetracyanonickelate(II) salts of organic ammonium ions, (18-crown-6)-(2-hydroxyethylammonium) tetracyanonickelate(II), I, and 10-aminodecylammonium tetracyano nick-elate(II), II, have been analyzed. I crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a = 10.458(2), b = 8.267(3), c = 24.045(2) Å, β = 94.09(1)°, V = 2074(1) ų, Z = 2, R = 0.061 for 2274 reflections; II is triclinic P ₁ with a = 9.437(3), b = 10.094(3), c = 9.205(3)Å,a = 110.16(2), β = 112.72(3), γ = 69.16(2)°, V = 733.7(5) ų 2=1, R = 0.040 including all the hydrogen atoms refined for 2724 reflections. The square planar tetracyanonickelate(II) anion is in a favourable position to form hydrogen bonds via N with the hydroxyl group in I and the ammonio group in II, respectively.     

Thermische (E), (Z)-Isomerisierungen bei substituierten Propenylbenzolen

Thermal (E), (Z)-Isomerizations of Substituted Propenylbenzenes The thermal isomerizations of (E)- and (Z)-3,5-dimethyl-2-(1′-propenyl)phenol ((E)- and (Z)- 3 ), (E)- and (Z)-N-methyl-2-(1′-propenyl)anilin ((E)- and (Z)- 4 ), (E)- and (Z)-3,5-dimethyl-2-(1′-propenyl)anilin ((E)- and (Z)- 5 , (E)- and (Z)-2-(1′-propenyl)mesitylene ((E)- and (Z- 6 ), (E)- and (Z)-2-(1′-propenyl)mesitylene ((E)- and (Z)- 7 ), (E)- and (Z)-2-(1′-propenyl)toluene ((E)- and (Z)- 8 ), (E)- and (Z)-4-(1′-propenyl)toulene ((E)- and (Z)- 9 ) as well as of (E)- and (Z)-2-(2′-butenyl)-mesitylene ((E)- and (Z)- 10 ) in decane solution were studied (Scheme 2). Whereas the isomerization of the 2-propenylphenols (E)- and (Z)- 3 occurs already between 130 and 150° (cf. Table 1), the isomerization of the 2-propenylanilins 4 and 5 takes place only at temperatures between 220 and 250° (cf. Tables 2 and 3). The activation values and the experiments using N-deuterated 4 (cf. Scheme 4) show that 2-propenylphenols and -anilins isomerize via sigmatropic [1,5]-hydrogen-shifts. For the isomerization of the methyl-substituted propenylbenzenes temperatures > 360° are required (cf. Tables 4 and 5). The activation values of the isomerization of (E)- and (Z)- 6 and (E)- and (Z)- 9 are in accord with those of other (E), (Z)-isomerizations which occur via vibrationally excited singlet biradicals (cf. Table 7). Nevertheless, thermal isomerization of 2′-d-(Z)- 8 (cf. Scheme 6) demonstrates that during the reaction deuterium is partially transfered into the ortho-methyl group, i.e. 1,5-hydrogen-shifts must have participated in isomerization of (E)- and (Z)- 8 (cf. Scheme 8). Under the equilibrium conditions 2,4,6-trimethylindan ( 17 ) is formed slowly at 368° from (E)- and (Z)- 6 , very probably via a radical 1,4-hydrogen-shift (cf. Scheme 9). In a similar way 2-ethyl-4,6-dimethylindan ( 19 ; cf. Table 6) arises from (E)- and (Z)- 7 . Thermolysis of (E)- and (Z)- 10 in decane solution at 367° results in almost no (E),(Z)-isomerization. At prolonged heating 19 and 2,5,7-trimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene ( 20 ) are formed; these two products arise very likely from an intermolecular radical process (cf. Scheme 10).     

Formation of 1,1,2,3,3-pentakis(arylthio)-1-propenes from tris(arylthio)cyclopropenyl cations and their conversion into 1,1,2,5,6,6-hexakis(arylthio)-(3E)-1,3,5-hexatriene

The reaction of tetrachlorocyclopropene (1) with arenethiols (2a–e), followed by treatmentwith perchloric acid, gave tris(arylthio)cyclopropenylium perchlorates (3a–c and e), 1,1,2,3,3-pentakis(arylthio)-1-propenes (4a–d), and 2,3,3-tris(arylthio)propenals (5a–d). The structures of tris(phenylthio)cyclopropenylium perchlorate (3a), 1,1,2,3,3-pentakis(phenylthio)-1-propene (4a), and 2,3,3-tris(o-tolylthio)propenal (5b) were analyzed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The yields depended significantly on the electron-withdrawing property of the substituents of the arenethiols and the molar ratio of 2 to 1. The reaction with 2,6-dimethylbenzenethiol (2e) gave only tris(2,6-dimethylphenylthio)cyclopropenylium perchlorate (3e) without the formation of 4e and 5e. Compounds 5a–d were produced by acid hydrolysis of 4a–d. Pyrolysis of 4a–d gave (3R,4S)-1,1,2,3,4,5,6,6-octakis(arylthio)-1,5-hexadienes (9a–d) and 1,1,2,5,6,6-hexakis(arylthio)-(3E)-1,3,5-hexatrienes (10a–d) together with diaryl disulfides (11a–d). Compound 10a was also produced by photolysis. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Heteroatom Chem 9:387–397, 1998     

C(6)N(7)-cyclized purines

By reaction of 6-[N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl]aminopurine ( 2a ) and of the corresponding 3-hydroxypropyl derivative 2b with thionyl chloride a bridge to N(1) is formed yielding 5 and 6 , respectively, whereas from 6-[N-(4-hydroxybutyl)-N-methyl]aminopurine ( 2c ) the 4-chlorobutyl compound 4 is obtained, which cyclizes in alkaline medium to the C(6)-N(7) bridged compound 7 . A related cyclization to 11a–11f is observed when 6-chloropurines are reacted with 3-alkyl-1,3-oxazolidines or 3-methyl-1,3-thiazolidine.     

CrIII-Phthalocyaninate: Darstellung,Eigenschaften und Kristallstruktur von l-Bis(triphenylphosphin)iminium-trans-di(nitrito(O))phthalocyaninato(2–)-chromat(III)

Cr^III Phthalocyaninates: Synthesis, Properties, and Crystal Structure of l-Bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium trans-Di(nitrito(O))phthalocyaninato(2–)chromate(III) [Cr(H₂O)₂Pc^2?]I_x reacts with excess (PNP)NO₂ in dimethylformamide to yield less soluble greenblack l-bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium trans-di(nitrito(O))phthalocyaninato(2–)chromate(III), ^l(PNP)^trans[Cr(ONO)₂Pc^2?], which crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 (No. 2) with Z = 2. The Cr atom is in the center of the Pc^2? ligand and the two nitrite ions are monodentate O-coordinated in a mutually trans arrangement to the Cr atom. The Cr? O and Cr? N_iso bond distances are 1.9898(14) und 1.981(2) Å, respectively. The geometric data of the coordinated nitrite ion are: d(N? O) = 1.307(2) Å; d(N? O) = 1.205(2) Å; ?(O? N? O) = 113.7(2)°; ?(Cr? O? N) = 116.85(12)°. The non-bonding O atoms are trans to the Cr atom. The Pc^2? ligand is slightly saddled. Three weak spin-allowed trip-quartet(TQ) transitions (in 10³ cm^?1): TQ1 (8.20) < TQ2 (11.3) < TQ3 (20.33) and the characteristic π-π* transitions of the Pc^2? ligand: B (14.68) < Q₁ (27.1) < Q₂ (29.0) < N (35.4) are observed in the UV-VIS-NIR spectrum. Prominent luminescence spectra are obtained by excitation within the TQ1 region, in which the spin-forbidden trip-sextet transition at 7376 cm^?1 dominates at low temperatures (T < 50 K). The vibrational spectra are discussed. In coincidence of the excitation lines with TQ3, v_s(Cr? O) at 378 cm^?1 is selectively resonance Raman (RR) enhanced. v_as(Cr? O) is observed in the FIR spectrum at 391 cm^?1. The following internal vibrations (in cm^?1) of the nitrito ligand are in the MIR spectrum: v_as(N? O)/1447 > v_as(N? O)/1018/1029 > δ(O? N? O)/828 and in the RR-spectrum: v_s(N? O)/1410 > v_s(N? O)/952, the last followed by three overtones.
