Chemical and Cyclovoltammetric Investigation of the Redoxreactions of the Decahalodecaborates closo ‐[B₁₀X₁₀]^2– and hypercloso ‐[B₁₀X₁₀]^{· –} (X = Cl, Br)¹⁾. Crystal Structure Analysis of Cs₂[B₁₀Br₁₀] · 2 H₂O The oxidation of the decachloro‐closo‐decaborates(2–) Cs₂[B₁₀Cl₁₀] or [Me₄N]₂[B₁₀Cl₁₀] with Tl(CF₃COO)₃ leads to the corresponding radical monoanion hypercloso‐[B₁₀Cl₁₀] ^{· –}, which was characterized by ESR and UV/Vis spectroscopy. [B₁₀Cl₁₀] ^{· –} does not dimerize like [B₁₀H₁₀] ^{· –} but it is reduced by acetonitrile to the dianion [B₁₀Cl₁₀]^2–. Cs₂[B₁₀Cl₁₀] reacts with stronger oxidation agents like CoF₃ (in dichloromethane) or XeF₂ (in perfluorhexane), respectively, to yield B₉Cl₉ and, in traces, B₈Cl₈. In opposite to this, the decabromoderivative Cs₂[B₁₀Br₁₀] does not show any reaction with Tl(CF₃COO)₃ in acetonitrile or with CoF₃ in CH₂Cl₂. The oxidation of the dianions [B₁₀X₁₀]^2– (X = Cl, Br) was studied by electroanalytical methods (cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, chronocoulometry). Formal potentials were determined for the two steps of the reaction, which do not seem to be affected by structural rearrangements. The crystal structure of Cs₂[B₁₀Br₁₀] · 2 H₂O was analyzed by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Cs₂[B₁₀Br₁₀] · 2 H₂O crystallizes monoclinic (space group I2/a, (no. 15), Z = 8, a = 1361.54(9) pm, b = 1215.89(5) pm, c = 3108.4(2) pm, α = 90°, β = 97.916(8)°, γ = 90°). The closo‐cluster B₁₀Br₁₀^2– has a bicapped square antiprismatic structure with idealized D_4d symmetry.

The eff. magnetic moment μ_eff = 1.74 (X = Cl), 1.68 μ_B (Br) confirms the presence of a low-spin Ru^II complex of the Pc^? radical. Accordingly, only the first ring oxidation at ～0.64 V and the first ring reduction at ～ ?1.19 V is observed in the cyclovoltammogram of [Ru(X)(CO)Pc^2?]^?. The UV-VIS-NIR spectra characterizing a monomeric Pc^? radical with intense π-π* transitions at 14500, 19800, 25100 and 33900 cm^?1 are compared with those of [Ru(Cl)₂Pc^?] and of monomeric as well as dimeric [Zn(Cl)Pc^?].

In contrast to the chloroarsenates(III) 2 – 5 , which all contain isolated ψ-trigonal bipyramidal anions [RAsCl₃]^–, the analogous bromoarsenates(III) 6 – 8 exhibit dimeric structures. Whereas the trans sited As–Cl distances in 2 and 3 are very similar a pronounced degree of asymmetry is apparent for the Cl–As–Cl three-centre bonds in 4 and 5 [2.396(1) and 2.602(1) Å in 5]. In 6 and 7 C_i symmetry related RAsBr₂ units are connected through long As…Br bonds [2.926(1) and 3.116(2) Å in 6 ]. The bromophenylarsenate(III) anion of 8 which contains two effectively undistorted ψ-trigonal bipyramids [PhAsBr₃]^– associated by weak As…Br interactions [3.117(2) Å]. In view of its very long bridging As…Cl distances the [Me₂As₂Cl₅]^– anion in 1 can, as 6 an 7 , be regarded as two MeAsCl₂ molecules weakly linked through a chloride ion.

In both structures the [Te₂X₉]^– anion (X = Cl, Br) consists of one TeX₆ octahedron and one TeX₅ square pyramidal unit connected by a common edge. In compound 1 the coordination sphere of the square pyramidal fragment is completed by a very weakly η⁶ bound benzo group of the cationic unit. In compound 2 an oxygen atom of the oxonium ion weakly interacts with the fivefold coordinated tellurium atom. The cationic units are a crown ether oxonium complex in 1 and a supramolecular 1,4-dioxane-oxonium network in 2 .

The valence force constants are f_d(PtCl) = 1.90, f_d(PtBr) = 1.64, f_d(PtI) = 1.22, f_d(PtN^α) = 2.20–2.27 and f_d(N^αN^β, N^βN^γ) = 12.44 mdyn/Å.     

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Metal Complexes of 2‐Formylpyrrole‐4N‐ethylthiosemicarbazone (4 EL1) and 2‐Acetylpyrrole‐4N‐ethylthiosemicarbazone (4 EL2)

The reactions of ⁴N‐ethyl‐2‐[1‐(pyrrol‐2‐yl)methylidene(hydrazine carbothioamide ( 4 EL₁ ) and ⁴N‐ethyl‐2[1‐(pyrrol‐2‐yl)ethylidene(hydrazine carbothioamide ( 4 EL₂ ) with Group 12 metal halides afforded complexes of types [M(L)₂X₂] (M = Zn, Cd; L = 4 EL₁, 4 EL₂; X = Cl, Br, I; 1 – 6 , 14 – 19 ) and [M(L)X₂] (M = Hg; L = 4 EL₁, 4 EL₂; X = Cl, Br, I; 7 – 9 , 20 – 22 ). In addition, reaction of 4 EL₁ with salts of Cu^II, Ni^II, Pd^II and Pt^II afforded compounds of type [M(4 EL₁–H)₂] ( 10 – 13 ). The new compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, FAB mass spectrometry, IR and electronic spectroscopy and, for sufficiently soluble compounds, ¹H, ¹³C and, when appropriate, ¹¹³Cd or ¹⁹⁹Hg NMR spectrometry. The spectral data suggest that in their complexes with Group 12 metal cations, both thiosemicarbazones are neutral and S‐monodentate; and for [Zn(4 EL₁)₂I₂] ( 3 ), [Cd(4 EL₁)₂Br₂] ( 5 ) and [Hg(4 EL₁)Cl₂]₂ ( 7 ) this was confirmed by X‐ray diffractometry. By contrast, in its complexes with Cu^II and Group 10 metal cations, 4 EL₁ is monodeprotonated and S,N‐bidentate, as was confirmed by X‐ray diffractometry for [Ni(4 EL₁–H)₂] ( 11 ) and [Pd(4 EL₁–H)₂] ( 12 ).     

[NiL2X2] oder [HL][NiLX3] – Reaktion sterisch anspruchsvoller Trialkylphosphine L mit NiX2 (X = Cl,Br) in Ethanol

[NiL₂X₂] or [HL][NiLX₃] – Reaction of Sterically Demanding Trialkylphosphines L with NiX₂ (X = Cl, Br) in Ethanol The reaction of some sterically demanding trialkylphosphines L = PR₂R′ (R = ⁱPr, R′ = ^tBu; R = ^tBu, R′ = ⁱPr, Me) with NiX₂ (X = Cl, Br) in ethanol affords instead of the expected non-electrolytes [NiL₂X₂] tertiary phosphonium nickelates [HL][NiLX₃] due to participation of the solvent. In case of the less bulky P^tBu₂Me both complex types were obtained. [Ni(P^tBu₂Me)₂Cl₂] is tetrahedral and therefore one of the two examples of paramagnetic bis(trialkylphosphine)dihalogenonickel(II) complexes known so far. In solution the latter compound undergoes an equilibrium of tetrahedral (paramagnetic) and planar (diamagnetic) conformer. Vis spectra as well as the results of magnetic measurements and ¹H and ³¹P NMR investigations are reported.     

Two Novel CuII Phenanthroline Adipato Complexes with π‐π Stacking Interactions: [Cu(phen)2(C6H8O4)] · 4.5 H2O and [(Cu2(phen)2Cl2)(C6H8O4)] · 4 H2O

The blue copper complex compounds [Cu(phen)₂(C₆H₈O₄)] · 4.5 H₂O ( 1 ) and [(Cu₂(phen)₂Cl₂)(C₆H₈O₄)] · 4 H₂O ( 2 ) were synthesized from CuCl₂, 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen) and adipic acid in CH₃OH/H₂O solutions. [Cu(phen)₂‐ (C₆H₈O₄)] complexes and hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules form the crystal structure of ( 1 ) (P1 (no. 2), a = 10.086(2) Å, b = 11.470(2) Å, c = 16.523(3) Å, α = 99.80(1)°, β = 115.13(1)°, γ = 115.13(1)°, V = 1617.5(5) ų, Z = 2). The Cu atoms are square‐pyramidally coordinated by four N atoms of the phen ligands and one O atom of the adipate anion (d(Cu–O) = 1.989 Å, d(Cu–N) = 2.032–2.040 Å, axial d(Cu–N) = 2.235 Å). π‐π stacking interactions between phen ligands are responsible for the formation of supramolecular assemblies of [Cu(phen)₂(C₆H₈O₄)] complex molecules into 1 D chains along [111]. The crystal structure of ( 2 ) shows polymeric [(Cu₂(phen)₂Cl₂)(C₆H₈O₄)_2/2] chains (P1 (no. 2), a = 7.013(1) Å, b = 10.376(1) Å, c = 11.372(3) Å, α = 73.64(1)°, β = 78.15(2)°, γ = 81.44(1)°, V = 773.5(2) ų, Z = 1). The Cu atoms are fivefold coordinated by two Cl atoms, two N atoms of phen ligands and one O atom of the adipate anion, forming [CuCl₂N₂O] square pyramids with an axial Cl atom (d(Cu–O) = 1.958 Å, d(Cu–N) = 2.017–2.033 Å, d(Cu–Cl) = 2.281 Å; axial d(Cu–Cl) = 2.724 Å). Two square pyramids are condensed via the common Cl–Cl edge to centrosymmetric [Cu₂Cl₂N₄O₂] dimers, which are connected via the adipate anions to form the [(Cu₂(phen)₂Cl₂)(C₆H₈O₄)_2/2] chains. The supramolecular 3 D network results from π‐π stacking interactions between the chains. H₂O molecules are located in tunnels.

Synthesis, Crystal Structures, and Vibrational Spectra of [(Ph₃P)₂N]₂[(W₆Cl )I ] · 2 Et₂O · 2 CH₂Cl₂ and [(Ph₃P)₂N]₂[(W₆Cl )(NCS) ] · 2 CH₂Cl₂ By treatment of [(W₆Cl)I]^2– with (SCN)₂ in dichloromethane at –20 °C the hexaisothiocyanato cluster anion [(W₆Cl)(NCS)]^2– is formed. X‐ray structure determinations have been performed on single crystals of [(Ph₃P)₂N]₂[(W₆Cl)I] · 2 CH₂Cl₂ · 2 Et₂O ( 1 ) (triclinic, space group P1, a = 10.324(5), b = 14.908(3), c = 17.734(8) Å, α = 112.78(2)°, β = 99.13(3)°, γ = 92.02(3)°, Z = 1) and [(Ph₃P)₂N]₂[(W₆Cl)(NCS)] · 2 CH₂Cl₂ ( 2 ) (triclinic, space group P1, a = 11.115(2), b = 14.839(2), c = 17.036(3) Å, α = 104.46(1)°, β = 105.75(2)°, γ = 110.59(1)°, Z = 1). The thiocyanate ligands of 2 are bound exclusively via N atoms with W–N bond lengths of 2.091–2.107 Å, W–N–C angles of 173.1–176.9° and N–C–S angles of 178.1–179.3°. The vibrational spectra exhibit characteristic innerligand vibrations at 2067–2045 (ν_CN), 879–867 (ν_CS) and 490–482 (δ_NCS). Based on the molekular parameters of the X‐ray determination of 1 the vibrational spectra of the corresponding (n‐Bu₄N) salt of 1 are assigned by normal coordinate analysis. The valence force constants are f_d(WW) = 1.61, f_d(WI) = 1.23 and f_d(WCl) = 1.10 mdyn/Å.     

Kristallstrukturen,Schwingungsspektren und Normalkoordinatenanalysen der Chloro-Iodo-Rhenate(IV) (CH2Py2)[ReCl5I], cis-(CH2Py2)[ReCl4I2] · 2 DMSO,trans-(CH2Py2)[ReCl4I2] · 2 DMSO und fac-(EtPh3P)2[ReCl3I3]

Crystal Structures, Vibrational Spectra, and Normal Coordinate Analyses of the Chloro-Iodo-Rhenates(IV) (CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₅I], cis -(CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₄I₂] · 2 DMSO, trans -(CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₄I₂] · 2 DMSO, and fac -(EtPh₃P)₂[ReCl₃I₃] [ReCl₅I]^2–, cis-[ReCl₄I₂]^2–, trans-[ReCl₄I₂]^2–, and fac-[ReCl₃I₃]^2– have been synthesized by ligand exchange reactions of [ReI₆]^2– with HCl and are separated by ion exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose. X-ray structure determinations have been performed on single crystals of (CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₅I] ( 1 ) (triclinic, space group P1 with a = 7.685(2), b = 9.253(2), c = 12.090(4) Å, α = 90.06(2), β = 101.11(2), γ = 95.07(2)°, Z = 2), cis-(CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₄I₂] · 2 DMSO ( 2 ) (triclinic, space group P1 with a = 8.662(2), b = 12.109(2), c = 12.9510(12) Å, a = 97.533(11), β = 96.82(2), γ = 89.90(2)°, Z = 2) , trans-(CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₄I₂] · 2 DMSO ( 3 ) (triclinic, space group P1 with a = 9.315(7), b = 9.663(3), c = 15.232(3) Å, α = 80.09(2), β = 81.79(4), γ = 83.99(5)°, Z = 2) and fac-(EtPh₃P)₂[ReCl₃I₃] ( 4 ) (monoclinic, space group P2₁/a with a = 17.453(2), b = 13.366(1), c = 19.420(1) Å, β = 112.132(8)°, Z = 4). The crystal structure of ( 1 ) reveals a positional disorder of the anion sublattice along the asymmetric axis. Due to the stronger trans influence of I compared with Cl on asymmetric axes Cl˙–Re–I′ is caused a mean lenghthening of the Re–Cl˙ distances of 0.020 Å (0.8%) and a shortening of the Re–I′ distances of 0.035 Å (1.3%) with regard to symmetrically coordinated axes Cl–Re–Cl and I–Re–I, respectively. Using the molecular parameters of the X-Ray determinations the low temperature (10 K) IR and Raman spectra of the (n-Bu₄N) salts of all four chloro-iodo-rhenates(IV) are assigned by normal coordinate analyses. The weakening of the Re–Cl˙ bonds and the strengthening of the Re–I′ bonds is indicated by a decrease or increase of the valence force constants each by 9%.
