Synthesis and Properties of Diphthalocyaninates of Bismuth, [Bi(Pc)₂]^k (k = 1?, 0, 1+); Crystal Structure of mixed-valent [Bi(Pc)₂] · CH₂Cl₂ Blue di(phthalocyaninato(2-))bismuthate(III), [Bi(Pc^2?)₂]^?, is obtained by the reaction of BiO(NO₃) with molten 1,2-dicyanobenzene in the presence of potassium methylate and isolated as tetra-n-butylammonium (ⁿBu₄N)⁺ and bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium (PNP)⁺ salt. Green mixed-valent [Bi(Pc)₂] · CH₂Cl₂ is prepared by anodic oxidation of [Bi(Pc^2?)₂]^?. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic γ modification (Pnma; a = 28.176(5), b = 22.913(3), c = 7.925(1) Å, Z = 4). The Bi^III ion is eightfold coordinated by the N_iso atoms of the slightly distorted Pc ligands in a square antiprismatic manner. The average Bi? N_iso bond distance is 2.467 Å. The complex is paramagnetic (μ_eff = 1.84 μ_B). Oxidation of [Bi(Pc^2?)₂]^? with bromine yields purple, diamagnetic [Bi(Pc^?)₂]Br_x (1.5 ≤ x ≤ 2.5). The redox properties are investigated electrochemically. UV-Vis-NIR, MIR/FIR and resonance Raman spectra of the new bismuth(III) complexes are discussed and compared with those of diphthalocyaninates of the lanthanides.     

Iodo­[phthalocyaninato(2–)]­manganese(III) bridged by a neutral I2 mol­ecule

The title manganese(III) phthalocyaninate (Pc) complex, viz. iodo­[phthalocyaninato(2−)]­manganese(III) hemi­(diiodine), [Mn(C₃₂H₁₆N₈)I]·0.5I₂ or (MnPcI)₂·I₂, was obtained from the reaction of pure powdered manganese with phthalo­nitrile under oxidation conditions of iodine vapour. The phthalocyaninato(2−) residue is not strictly planar and the Mn atom is five‐coordinate, having distorted square‐pyramidal geometry and residing 0.262 (2) Å above the plane defined by the four iso­indole N atoms of the phthalocyaninate macrocycle. The neutral I₂ mol­ecule bridges the iodo­[phthalocyaninato(2−)]­manganese(III) mol­ecules, forming a centrosymmetric dimeric structure.     

Zirconiumphthalocyanine: Darstellung und Eigenschaften chloridhaltiger Phthalocyanine des drei- und vierwertigen Zirconiums; Kristallstruktur von cis-Di(triphenylphosphin)iminium-tri(chloro)phthalocyaninato(2–)zirconat(IV)-di(dichlormethan)

Zirconiumphthalocyanines: Synthesis and Properties of Chloride Ligated Phthalocyanines of Ter- and Quadrivalent Zirconium; Crystal Structure of cis-Di(triphenylphosphine)iminium-tri(chloro)phthalocyaninato(2–)zirconate(IV)-di(dichloromethane) cis-Di(chloro)phthalocyaninato(2–)zirconium(IV) is obtained by the reaction of ZrCl₄ with phthalodinitrile in 1-chloronaphthaline at 230°C. It reacts with molten di(triphenylphosphine)iminiumchloride ((PNP)Cl) yielding cis-di(triphenylphosphine)iminium-tri(chloro)phthalocyaninato(2-)zirconate(IV), cis-(PNP)[ZrCl₃Pc^2?]. This crystallizes with two molecules of dichloromethane in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with the lattice constants a = 15.219(4) Å, b = 20.262(10) Å, c = 20.719(4) Å, b? = 93.46(2)°, Z = 4. The seven coordinated Zr atom is situated in a “square base-trigonal cap” polyhedron. The plane of the three chlorine atoms runs parallel to the plane of the four isoindole nitrogen atoms N_iso. The Zr–Cl distances range from 2.49 to 2.55 Å, the Zr? N_iso distances from 2.26 to 2.29 Å. Due to ion packing effects the Pc^2? ligand shows an asymmetrical convex distortion. The PNP cation adopts the bent conformation. The P? N? P angle is 139°, the P? N distance 1.58 Å. As confirmed by the cyclovoltammograms cis-(PNP)[ZrCl₃Pc^2?] is oxidized (anodically or chemically by Cl₂) to yield cis-tri(chloro)phthalocyaninato(1–)zirconium(IV) and reduced (cathodically or chemically by [BH₄]^?) yielding chlorophthalocyaninato(2–)zirconium(III) and cis-di(triphenylphosphine)iminium-di(chloro)phthalocyaninato(2–)zirconate(III). The optical spectra show the typical π–π*-transitions of the Pc^2? resp. Pc^? ligand not much affected by the different states of oxidation and coordination of zirconium. The same is true for the vibrational spectra of the Pc^2? resp. Pc^? ligand. In the f.i.r. spectra between 350 and 150 cm^?1 the asym. and sym. Zr? Cl stretching and Cl? Zr? Cl deformation vibration as well as the asym. Zr? N stretching vibration of the [ZrCl_xN₄] skeleton (x = 1–3) is assigned.

Synthesis and Properties of the Diphthalocyaninates of Yttrium and Indium Blue di(phthalocyaninato(2–))metalates of tervalent yttrium and indium are obtained by the reaction of yttrium acetate or anhydrous indium chloride with molten phthalodinitrile in the presence of potassium methylate and isolated as complex salts with organic cations. Anodic oxidation of (ⁿBu₄N)[M(Pc^2?)₂] (M = Y, In) yields crystals of green paramagnetic di(phthalocyaninato)metal(III)-dichloromethane solvate, [M(Pc)₂] · CH₂Cl₂ (μ_eff = 1.8/1.9 B.M. (Y/In)). Red brown di(phthalocyaninato)metal(III)-polybromide, [M(Pc^?)₂]Br_x is prepared by oxidation with bromine in excess. The redox properties of the di(phthalocyaninato)metalates(III) are investigated by cyclic voltammetry and difference pulse polarography. A quasi reversible (ΔE ? 60 mV) one electron process at 0.09 V (Y) and ?0.07 V (In) is assigned to the redox couple [M(Pc^2?)₂]^?/[M(Pc)₂]. Electronic absorption spectra as well as MIR/FIR and resonance Raman spectra are reported. The characteristic features of the three oxidation states and the influence of the ionic radius and the electron configuration of the metal ion are discussed.     

The effects of substituents,molecular symmetry,ionic radius of the rare earth metal,and macrocycle on the electronic absorption spectra characteristics of sandwich-type bis(phthalocyaninato) and mixed (phthalocyaninato)(porphyrinato) rare earth complexes

The electronic absorption spectroscopic data for two series of 60 unsubstituted/substituted bis(phthalocyaninato) and mixed [tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)porphyrinato](phthalocyaninato) rare earth complexes M(Pc)₂, M(Pc^∗)₂ and M(TClPP)(Pc) [M = Y, La…Lu except Pm; Pc^∗ = dianion of 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octakis(4-methoxyphenoxy)phthalocyanine [Pc(MeOPhO)₈], dianion of 3(4),12(13),21(22),30(31)-tetra(tert-butyl)phthalocyanine (TBPc) and TClPP = tetra(4-chloro)phenylporphyrin] have been measured in CHCl₃. In this paper, the influence of the symmetry of macrocycle rare earth molecules, the effects of ionic radius of the rare earth metal and the influence of substituent species (tert-butyl and 4-methoxyphenoxy groups) onto the peripheral benzene rings on the electronic absorption characteristics of sandwich-type compounds have also been tentatively studied in detail.     

Darstellung und Eigenschaften von tetragonalen α-Di(phthalocyaninato(1−))-praseodym(III)-polyhalogeniden; Kristallstruktur von α-[Pr(Pc−)2]Br1,5

Preparation and Properties of Tetragonal α-Di(phthalocyaninato(1?))praseodymium(III)-polyhalides; Crystal Structure of α-[Pr(Pc^?)₂]Br_1.5 Brown red di(phthalocyaninato(1?))-praseodym(III)-polyhalides [Pr(Pc^?)₂]X_y (X = Br, I) of variable composition (1 ≤ y ≤ 2.5) are formed by (electro)chemical oxidation of [Pr(Pc^2?)₂]^?. The thermical decomposition of these polyhalides at 250°C yields partially oxidized, green α-[PrPc^?Pc^2?]. Due to strong spin–spin coupling of the phthalocyanin-π-radicals only Pr^III contributes to the magnetic moment of ca. 3.0 B.M. for all complexes. Green metallic prisms of [Pr(Pc^?)₂]Br_1.5 crystallize in the tetragonal α-modification: space group P4/nnc with a = 19.634(5) Å, c = 6.485(2) Å; Z = 2. In the sandwich complex Pr^III is eightfold coordinated by the isoindoline N-atoms of the two staggered (41°), nearly planar Pc^?- ligands. The quasi-onedimensional character of the structure along [001] is due to the infinite columns of Pc^? ligands. The superperiod along [001] is a consequence of the distribution of the Pr atoms onto two incompletely filled crystallographic positions at a distance of c/2 and the disordered chains of the bromine atoms extending in the same direction. Powder diffractograms of Pr(Pc )₂Br2, [Pr(Pc^?)₂]I₂ und [PrPc Pc^2?] confirm the tetragonal α-modification of these complexes, too. The content of tribromide correlates with the population of the Pr(2)-site. In the UV-VIS-NTR absorption spectrum of a thin film of Pr(Pc )₂Br, the intense bands at 13.9 and 19.5 kK are assigned to the B and Q transition, respectively. The D band at 9. kK is characteristic for isolated dimeric Pc^?-π-radicals. Due to increasing electron delocalisation as a result of the growing columns the D band is shifted to lower energy appearing successively at 6.05 and 3.3 kK. The mir and resonance Raman (RR) spectra of α-[Pr(Pr^?)₂]X_y, (X = Br, I) show the well known diagnostic bands for Pc^?-π-radicals. Thc RR spectrum of the polyiodide is dominated by the overtone progression of the totally symmetric (I-I) stretching vibration of the triiodide at 108cm^?1. The FT-Raman spectra are also marked by the totally symmetric stretching vibration of the polyhalides (Br₃ : 145cm ¹; 1₃^?:105cm^?1; I₅^? 151 cm^?1).     

Darstellung und spektroskopische Eigenschaften von Di(phthalocyaninato(1−))-lanthanidpolybromid; Kristallstruktur von α-Di(phthalocyaninato)samariumpolybromid, α-[Sm(Pc)2]Br1,45 und α-Di(phthalocyaninato)samariumperchlorat, α-[Sm(Pc)2](ClO4)0,63

Synthesis and Spectroscopical Properties of Di(phthalocyaninato(1?))lanthanidepolybromide; Crystal Structure of α-Di(phthalocyaninato)samariumpolybromide, α-[Sm(Pc)₂]Br_1.45 and α-Di(phthalocyaninato)samariumperchlorate, α-[Sm(Pc)₂](ClO₄)_0.63 Bronze-coloured di(phthalocyaninato)lanthanidepolybromide, [Ln(Pc^?)₂]Br_y (Ln = La…(? Ce, Pm)…Lu; y > 1.5) is prepared by oxidation of (ⁿBu₄N)[Ln(Pc^2?)₂] with bromine in excess. The UV-VIS-NIR spectra show the typical B and Q₁ bands of the Pc^? ligand at ～ 14 kK and ～ 20 kK. For the [Ln(Pc^?)₂]⁺ cation a NIR(D) band between 9,14 kK (La) and 11,50 kK (Lu) is characteristic for dimeric cofacial Pc^? radicals. Within the row La…Lu, there is a linear relationship of the hypsochromic shift of the strong bands and the Ln^III radius. In the case of La? Nd the D band shifts successively with longer time of bromination to ～ 3 kK as a result of increasing electron delocalisation. Characteristic vibrational bands are at ～ 1350/1450 cm^?1 (IR) and ～ 560/1120/1170/1600 cm^?1 (RR). In the FT-Raman spectra the totally symmetric Ln? N stretching vibration between 141 cm^?1 (La) and 172 cm^?1 (Lu) is selectively enhanced. As shown by α-[Sm(Pc)₂]Br_1,45 and α-[Sm(Pc)₂](ClO₄)_0,63 only partially ringoxidized complexes are obtained by the anodic oxidation. Both crystallize in the tetragonal space group P4/nnc. The [Sm(Pc)₂] molecular building block contains two nearly planar staggered (～41°) Pc rings packed in columns parallel along [001] leading to the quasi-one-dimensional structure. There is a statistical disorder of the Sm^III and the ClO₄^? resp. Br^?/Br₃^? ions over two incompletely filled crystallographic positions for the cation resp. anion. This results in a partial oxidation of the Pc ligand, which in the picture of localized valence states for α-[Sm(Pc)₂](ClO₄)_0,63 corresponds to [SmPc^?Pc^2?] · 2[Sm(Pc^?)₂](ClO₄). Accepting the same valence state for [Sm(Pc)₂]Br_1,45 five positive charges are compensated by two Br^? and three Br₃^?. The spectroscopic differences of the partially and fully oxidized complexes are discussed.

Magnesium Phthalocyanines: Synthesis and Properties of Halophthalocyaninatomagnesate, [Mg(X)Pc^2?]^? (X = F, Cl, Br); Crystal Structure of Bis(triphenylphosphine)iminiumchloro-(phthalocyaninato)magnesate Acetone Solvate Magnesium phthalocyanine reacts with excess tetra(n-butyl)ammonium- or bis(triphenylphosphine)iminiumhalide ((ⁿBu₄N)X or (PNP)X; X = F, Cl, Br) yielding halophthalocyaninatomagnesate ([Mg(X)Pc^2?]^?; X = F, Cl, Br), which crystallizes in part as a scarcely soluble (ⁿBu₄N) or (PNP) complex-salt. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of ^b(PNP)[Mg(Cl)Pc^2?] · CH₃COCH₃ reveals that the Mg atom has a tetragonal pyramidal coordination geometry with the Mg atom displaced out of the center (Ct) of the inner nitrogen atoms (N_iso) of the nonplanar Pc ligand toward the Cl atom (d(Mg? Ct) = 0.572(3) Å; d(Mg? Cl) = 2.367(2) Å). The average Mg? N_iso distance is 2.058 Å. Pairs of partially overlapping anions are present. The cation adopts a bent conformation (^b(PNP)⁺: d(P1? N(K)) = 1.568(3) Å; d(P2? N(K)) = 1.587(3) Å; ?(P1? N(K)? P2) = 141.3(2)°). Electrochemical and spectroscopic properties are discussed.     

Methyloxy Substituted Heteroleptic Bis(phthalocyaninato) Yttrium Complexes: Density Functional Calculations

The effects of alkyloxy substituents attached to one phthalocyanine ligand of three heteroleptic bis(phthalocyaninato) yttrium complexes Y(Pc)[Pc(α‐OCH₃)₄] ( 1 ), Y(Pc)[Pc(α‐OCH₃)₈] ( 2 ), and Y(Pc)[Pc(β‐OCH₃)₈] ( 3 ), as well as their reduction products {Y(Pc)[Pc(α‐OCH₃)₄]}^? ( 4 ), {Y(Pc)[Pc(α‐OCH₃)₈]}^? ( 5 ), and {Y(Pc)[Pc(β‐OCH₃)₈]}^? ( 6 ) [H₂Pc(α‐OCH₃)₄=1,8,15,22‐tetrakis(methyloxy)phthalocyanine; H₂Pc(α‐OCH₃)₈=1,4,8,11,15,18,22,25‐octakis(methyloxy)phthalocyanine; H₂Pc(β‐OCH₃)₈=2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24‐octakis(methyloxy)phthalocyanine] are studied by DFT calculations. Good consistency is found between the calculated results and experimental data for the electronic absorption, IR, and Raman spectra of 1 and 3 . Introduction of electron‐donating methyloxy groups on one phthalocyanine ring of the heteroleptic double‐deckers induces structural deformation in both phthalocyanine ligands, electron transfer between the two phthalocyanine rings, changes in orbital energy and composition, shift of electronic absorption bands, and different vibrational modes of the unsubstituted and substituted phthalocyanine ligands in the IR and Raman spectra in comparison with the unsubstituted homoleptic counterpart Y(Pc)₂. The calculations reveal that incorporation of methyloxy substituents at the nonperipheral positions has greater influence on the structure and spectroscopic properties of bis(phthalocyaninato) yttrium double‐deckers than at the peripheral positions, which increases with increasing number of substituents. Nevertheless, the substituent effect of alkyloxy substituents at one phthalocyanine ligand of the double‐decker on the unsubstituted phthalocyanine ring and on the whole molecule and the importance of the position and number of alkyloxy substituents are discussed. In addition, the effect of reducing 1 – 3 to 4 – 6 on the structure and spectroscopic properties of the bis(phthalocyaninato) yttrium compounds is also discussed. This systemic DFT study is not only useful for understanding the structure and spectroscopic properties of bis(phthalocyaninato) rare earth metal complexes but also helpful in designing and preparing double‐deckers with tunable structure and properties.     

A theoretical study of a drastic structural change of bis(phthalocyaninato)lanthanide by ligand oxidation: Towards control of ligand field strength and magnetism of single-lanthanide-ionic single molecule magnet

A quantum chemical study based on the density functional theory (DFT) on anionic and cationic bis(phthalocyaninato)lanthanides revealed that removal of two electrons from the anionic complex shortens considerably the separation between phthalocyaninato (Pc) ligands. This suggests that [Pc₂Tb]⁺, which is generated by two-electron oxidation from the [Pc₂Tb]⁻ SMM previously reported, can have significantly larger ligand field splitting than the original anionic form.

A novel compound, KBi(C₆H₄O₇) · 3.5H₂O (I), has been synthesized in the Bi(NO₃)₂-K₃(HCit) system (HCit^3? is an anion of citric acid C₆H₈O₇) at a component ratio (n) of 8 in a water-glycerol mixture, and its crystal structure has been determined. The crystals are unstable in air. The crystals are triclinic: a = 7.462 Å, b = 10.064 Å, c = 17.582 Å, α = 100.27°, β = 99.31°, γ = 105.48°, V = 1221.2 ų, Z = 2, space group $P\bar 1$ . In the structure of I, asymmetric binuclear fragments [Bi₂(Cit^4?)₂(H₂O)₂]^2? are linked through inversion centers into polymeric chain anions. Ions K⁺ and crystal water molecules are arranged in channels between the chains. The Bi(1)...Bi(2) distances in the binuclear fragment are 4.62 Å, and the Bi(1)...Bi(1) and Bi(2)...Bi(2) distances between bismuth atoms in the chain are 5.83 and 5.95 Å, respectively. The chains are linked through bridging oxygen atoms of the ligands Cit to form layers. In the centrosymmetric four-membered chelate ring Bi₂O₂ formed through Bi-O(Cit) bonds, the distances Bi(1)-Bi(1) are equal to 4.55 Å, and Bi(1)-O are 2.66 and 2.84 Å. The Bi-O bond lengths in I are in the range 2.12–3.16 Å. The Cit ligands act as hexadentate chelating/bridging ligands.     

AlIII-Phthalocyanine: Darstellung,Eigenschaften und Kristallstruktur von Tetra(n-butyl)ammonium-trans-di(nitrito(O))phthalocyaninato(2−)aluminat(III)

Al^III Phthalocyanines: Synthesis, Properties, and Crystal Structure of Tetra(n-butyl)-ammonium-trans-di(nitrito(O))phthalocyaninato(2?)aluminate(III) [Al(Cl)Pc^2?] reacts with excess (ⁿBu₄N)NO₂ in dimethylformamide yielding less soluble blue tetra(n-butyl)ammonium-trans-di(nitrito(O))phthalocyaninato(2?)aluminate(III), (ⁿBu₄N)^trans[Al(ONO)₂Pc^2?], which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c (No. 15) with Z = 4. The Al atom is in the special position 4 d in the center of the Pc^2? ligand and the two nitrit ions are monodentate O-coordinated in a mutually trans arrangement to the Al atom. The Al? O and average Al? N_iso bond distances are 1.927(2) and 1.956 Å, respectively. The geometric data of the coordinated nitrite ion are: d(N? O) = 1.277(4) Å; d(N? O) = 1.221(4) Å; ?(O? N? O) = 114.3(3)°; ?(Al? O? N) = 121.3(2)°. The non-bonded O atoms are trans to the Al atom. The Pc^2? ligand is slightly ruffled. The UV-VIS-NIR spectra and the vibrational spectra are discussed.     

(4‐Aminopyridine‐κN1)(phthalocyaninato‐κ4N)zinc(II) tetrahydrofuran disolvate

The title compound, [Zn(C₃₂H₁₆N₈)(C₅H₆N₂)]·2C₄H₈O, consists of one (phthalocyaninato)zinc (ZnPc) unit, a coordinated 4‐aminopyridine (4‐ap) molecule and two tetrahydrofuran (THF) solvent molecules. The central Zn atom is (4+1)‐coordinated by four isoindole N atoms of the Pc core and by the pyridine N atom of 4‐aminopyridine. The Zn atom is displaced by 0.4464 (8) Å from the isoindole N₄ plane towards the pyridine N atom. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular amine–phthalocyaninate N—H...N hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions between the aggregated Pc rings, which form molecular layers, and by weak van der Waals interactions between the layers. As well as hindering the aggregation of ZnPc molecules by occupying an axial position, the amino group will add new interactions which will favor applications of ZnPc, for example, as a sensitizer of photodynamic therapy.

Synthesis and Spectroscopical Properties of the Mixed-Valent Di(phthalocyaninato)lanthanides(III) Green di(phthalocyaninato)lanthanide(III), [M(Pc)₂] (M = rare earth metal ion: La‥(-Ce, Pm)‥Lu) is prepared by anodic oxidation of (ⁿBu₄N)[M(Pc^2?)₂] dissolved in CH₂Cl₂/(ⁿBu₄N)ClO₄. The UV-Vis-NIR spectra show intense π-π* transitions at ? 15000 cm^?1 and 31000 cm^?1, typical for Pc^2? ligands. Bands at ? 11000 cm^?1 and 22000 cm^?1 indicate the equal presence of a Pc^? π-radical. The metal dependent NIR band between 4000 and 9000 cm^?1 is characteristic for these mixed-valent complexes and assigned to an intervalence transition (b₁ → a₂; D_4d symmetry). Most bands are shifted linearly with the M^III radius. In the IR and resonance Raman (r.r.) spectra the typical vibrations of the Pc^? π-radical are dominant. These are essentially metal independent excepting the C? C and C? N vibrations of the inner (CN)₈ ring. The sym. M? N stretching vibration between 141 (La) and 168 cm^?1 (Lu) is selectively r.r.-enhanced when excited with 1064 nm.     

Crystal-structure refinement, thermal expansion, and chemical distortion of Bi2Ga4O9

Single crystals of Bi₂Ga₄O₉ are grown from a solution in a bismuth oxide melt. The structure (orthorhombic, space group Pbam, a = 7.918(2) Å, b = 8.299(2) Å, c = 5.894(2) Å, Z = 2) is refined to R = 0.052 in the anisotropic approximation based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The structure is a framework. The bismuth(III) atoms are sixfold coordinated; gallium(III) exists in both tetrahedral and octahedral coordinations. The thermal expansion of Bi₂Ga₄O₉ is studied by high-temperature X-ray powder diffraction method and is found to be sharply anisotropic. A structural interpretation of the anisotropy is proposed. Chemical distortion in the Bi₂M₄O₉ compounds with M = Fe(III), Al, or Ga is analyzed and compared with the thermal expansion of Bi₂Ga₄O₉.

Thermal analysis shows that the compound is thermally stable up to about 350 °C. The solid state UV-vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectrum indicates that Bi₂(IO₃)(IO₆) is a semiconductor with a band gap of 2.76 eV.

In this structure [M₃O₄]⁺‐layers are interleaved by single I^–‐layers. Er and Bi atoms of Bi₂ErO₄I are 8‐coordinated. The structure can be derived from the LiBi₃O₄Cl₂‐structure type.     

CrIII-Phthalocyaninate: Darstellung und spektroskopische Eigenschaften von Di(halogeno)phthalocyaninatochromaten(III)

Cr^III Phthalocyaninates: Synthesis and Spectroscopical Properties of Di(halo)phthalocyaninato(2 –)chromates(III) [Cr(H₂O)₂Pc^2?]⁺ reacts in acetone with (ⁿBu₄N)X to yield less soluble tetra(n-butyl)ammonium di(halo)phthalocyaninato(2 –)chromate(III), (ⁿBu₄N)[Cr(X)₂Pc^2?] (X = F, Cl, Br, I). In the differential pulse voltammograms the first ring oxidation is observed at 0,80 V, the ring reduction at ?1,48 V and the metal reduction (Cr(III)/Cr(II)) at ?0,80 V (averaged potentials). The last is followed by a partial dissociation of one of the halo ligands. In the UV-VIS-NIR spectra there are three weakly absorbing spin-allowed trip-quarter(TQ) transitions (TQ1 (8,4) < TQ2 (11,5) < TQ3 (20,6); averaged values (av) in 10³ cm^?1), a (Pc + X)-CrCT transition (31,3; av in 10³ cm^?1) and the characteristic π-π* transitions of the Pc^2? ligand (B (14,5) < Q₁ (24,5) < Q₂ (29,2) < N (36,0) < L (41,0); av in 10³ cm^?1). Q₁ and (Pc + X)-CrCT depend strongly on the halo ligands. Prominent luminescence spectra are obtained by excitation within the TQ1 region, in which the spin-forbidden trip-sextet transition (8330 (X = F), 7680 (Cl), 7460 (Br) 7450 cm^?1 (I)) dominates at low temperatures (T < 50 K). The vibrational spectra are discussed. In coincidence of the excitation lines with TQ3, v_s(Cr? X) at 458 (X = F) < 246 (Cl) < 157 (Br) < 107 cm^?1 ( I ) is selectively resonance Raman enhanced. v_as(Cr? X) is observed in the FIR spectrum at 522 (X = F) < 283/326 (Cl) < 227 (Br) < 205 cm^?1 ( I ).     

Eu4Bi3: Crystal Structure,Magnetic and Electronic Properties

The Eu? Bi system contains the phases Eu₅Bi₃, Eu₄Bi₃ and Eu₁₁Bi₁₀. The structure types of these phases have been determined by powder X-ray diffraction. Crystals of Eu₄Bi₃ (cubic, space group I4 3d; a = 9.920 Å, Z = 4, T = 130 K, R1/wR2 = 4.86/10.84%) were obtained in low yield by reaction of Eu, Mn, and Bi in the ratio 14:1:11 in a closed niobium tube (heating rate 30°C/h; reaction at 1050°C for 300 h, cooling rate 100°C/h). The crystal structure consists of distorted octahedra made up of six Bi coordinated to a central Eu atom. Eu is also coordinated to a three other Eu atoms and forms a three-dimensional network composed of interconnected rings. The Bi atoms are coordinated to eight Eu atoms. High yields of Eu₄Bi₃ can be prepared by reacting stoichiometric amount of the elements in a sealed tantalum tube at 1100°C for 24 h. Temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility is consistent with antiferromagnetic behavior with an ordering temperature of 18 K. The data could be fit with the Curie-Weiss law and a moment of 7.38 μ_B/Eu is obtained, consistent with all Eu atoms being Eu¹¹. Temperature dependent resistivity indicates that Eu₄Bi₃ is a metal with a room temperature resistance of 1.3 Ωcm.     

Tetrabutylammonium Salts of Aluminum(III) and Gallium(III) Phthalocyanine Radical Anions Bonded with Fluoren‐9‐olato− Anions and Indium(III) Phthalocyanine Bromide Radical Anions

Reduction of aluminum(III), gallium(III), and indium(III) phthalocyanine chlorides by sodium fluorenone ketyl in the presence of tetrabutylammonium cations yielded crystalline salts of the type (Bu₄N⁺)₂[M^III(HFl−O⁻)(Pc^.3−)]^.−(Br⁻) ⋅ 1.5 C₆H₄Cl₂ [M=Al ( 1 ), Ga ( 2 ); HFl−O⁻=fluoren‐9‐olato⁻ anion; Pc=phthalocyanine] and (Bu₄N⁺) [In^IIIBr(Pc^.3−)]^.− ⋅ 0.875 C₆H₄Cl₂ ⋅ 0.125 C₆H₁₄ ( 3 ). The salts were found to contain Pc^.3− radical anions with negatively charged phthalocyanine macrocycles, as evidenced by the presence of intense bands of Pc^.3− in the near‐IR region and a noticeable blueshift in both the Q and Soret bands of phthalocyanine. The metal(III) atoms coordinate HFl−O⁻ anions in 1 and 2 with short Al−O and Ga−O bond lengths of 1.749(2) and 1.836(6) Å, respectively. The C−O bonds [1.402(3) and 1.391(11) Å in 1 and 2 , respectively] in the HFl−O⁻ anions are longer than the same bond in the fluorenone ketyl (1.27–1.31 Å). Salts 1 – 3 show effective magnetic moments of 1.72, 1.66, and 1.79 μ_B at 300 K, respectively, owing to the presence of unpaired S= 1/2 spins on Pc^.3−. These spins are coupled antiferromagnetically with Weiss temperatures of −22, −14, and −30 K for 1 – 3 , respectively. Coupling can occur in the corrugated two‐dimensional phthalocyanine layers of 1 and 2 with an exchange interaction of J /k _B=−0.9 and −1.1 K, respectively, and in the π‐stacking {[In^IIIBr(Pc^.3−)]^.−}₂ dimers of 3 with an exchange interaction of J /k _B=−10.8 K. The salts show intense electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signals attributed to Pc^.3−. It was found that increasing the size of the central metal atom strongly broadened these EPR signals.
