The Reaction of [TcNCl₂(Me₂PhP)₃] with Dialkyldithiocarbamates and N,N-Dialkylthio-carbamoylbenzamidines [TcN(Cl)(Me₂PhP)₂(Et₂dtc)], [TcN(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)₂], and [TcN(Et₂dtc)₂] can be prepared by stepwise ligand exchange reactions starting from dichlorotris(dimethylphenylphosphine)nitridotechnetium(V), [TcNCl₂(Me₂PhP)₃], and diethyldithiocarbamate. In contrast to this, only one intermediate, [TcN(Cl)(Me₂PhP)₂(HEt₂tcb)], could be isolated during the reaction with N,N-Diethlthiocarbamoylbenzamidine, which yields the bis chelate [TcN(HEt₂tcb)₂]. [TcN(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)₂] crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c; a = 17.369(5) Å, b = 15.024(1) Å, c = 9.906(3) Å, β = 76.47(1)º, Z = 4. The phosphine is coordinated equatorially. The multiply bonded nitrogen ligand (Tc? N(1) 1.624(3) Å) strongly labilizes the trans positioned donor atom (distance Tc? S(4) 2.826(1) Å). [TcN(HEt₂tcb)₂] crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with a = 9.749(4) Å, b = 11.264(4) Å, c = 12.359(4) Å, α = 75.34(2)º, β = 79.69(2)º, γ = 87.55(2)º, Z = 2. The metal is five-coordinate with the nitrido donor atom occupying the apex of a square pyramid. It's basal plane is formed by the cis-coordinated chelate ligands. The technetium is situated over the basal plane by about 0.6 Å. The Tc?N distane was found to be 1.610(5) Å.

Final products of these reactions are [Re(NBCl₃)-(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)₂], [Re(NGaCl₃)(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)₂], and [Re(NS)Cl(Me₂PhP)₂Et₂dtc)] which have been studied by mass spectrometry, IR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. [Re(NBCl₃)(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)₂] crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 , Z = 2, a = 8.151(6), b = 9.935(8), c = 18.67(1) Å; α = 94.42(4), β = 97.09(1), γ = 101.35(4)°.

Ga bond is slightly bent with an angle of 154.5(4)° and a Re? N bond length of 1.695(6) Å. [Re(NS)Cl(Me₂PhP)₂(Et₂dtc)] crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 , Z = 4, a = 9.514(2); b = 16.266(5); c = 18.388(3) Å; α = 88.75(2), β = 76.59(2), γ = 85.50(2)° with two crystallographically independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. Rhenium has a distorted octahedral environment with the chloro ligand in trans position to the almost linear thionitrosyl group.

Neue nitridoverbrückte Dreikernkomplexe des Rheniums

New Trinuclear Rhenium Complexes with Bridging Nitrido Ligands Trinuclear complexes with bridging nitrido ligands between the rhenium atoms are formed when [ReN(Et₂dtc)₂ · (Me₂PhP)] (Et₂dtc^– = N,N‐diethyldithiocarbamate) reacts with TlCl or Pr(O₃SCF₃)₃. [Cl(Me₂PhP)₂(Et₂dtc)Re≡N–Re(N) · Cl₂(Me₂PhP)–N≡Re(Et₂dtc)(Me₂PhP)₂Cl] and [(Et₂dtc)₂ · (Me₂PhP)Re≡N–Re(N)(Et₂dtc)(Me₂PhP)–N≡Re(Me₂PhP) · (Et₂dtc)₂]⁺ contain two almost linear, asymmetric nitrido bridges. Additional, terminal nitrido ligands are located at the middle rhenium atoms.

Kristallstrukturen von trans-Chloro-dimethyldithiocarbamato-bis(dimethylphenylphosphan) nitridorhenium(V), [ReN(Cl)(Me2PhP)2(Me2dtc)], und Bis(diethyldithiocarbamato)(dimethylphenylphosphan)nitridorhenium(V), [ReN(Me2PhP)(Et2dtc)2]

Mixed-Ligand Complexes of Rhenium IV. The Reaction of [ReNCl₂(Me₂PhP)₃] with Dithiocarbamates. X-Ray Crystal Structures of trans-Chloro-dimethyldithiocarbamato-bis(dimethylphenylphosphine) nitridorhenium(V), [ReN(Cl)(Me₂PhP)₂(Me₂dtc)], and Bis(diethyldithiocarbamato)(dimethylphenylphosphine)nitridorhenium(V), [ReN(Cl)(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)₂] [ReNCl₂(Me₂PhP)₃] reacts with dialkyldithiocarbamates, R₂dtc^?, under a stepwise ligand exchange. Final products of these reactions are the well-known [ReN(R₂dtc)₂] bischelates. Intermediatelly, however, complexes of the general formulae [ReN(Cl)(Me₂PhP)₂(R₂dtc)] and [ReN(Me₂PhP)(R₂dtc)₂] can be isolated. Representatives have been structurally characterized. [ReN(Cl)(Me₂PhP)₂(Me₂dtc)] crystallizes monoclinic in the space group P2₁/c, Z = 4. The dimensions of the unit cell are a = 13.071(3); b = 11.622(1); c = 15.667(3) Å; β = 97.09(1)°. The rhenium atom has a distorted octahedral environment; the Re≡N bond length is 1.71(1) Å. The Re? Cl bond distance is markedly lengthened (2.665(2) Å) as a consequence of the strong trans labilizing influence of the coordinated nitrido ligand. [ReN(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)₂] crystallizes monoclinic in the space group P2₁/c, Z = 4, a = 17.262(3); b = 14.915(2); c = 9.888(2); β = 76.35(8)°. The equatorial coordination sphere is occupied by one phosphorus atom and three sulphur atoms. One of the dithiocarbamate ligands is coordinated bidentately; the second one with two distinct Re? S bond lengths. The Re? S(4) distance is 2.7983(2) Å which can be discussed as a weak interaction with the metal.     

[{ReN(Me2PhP)(Et2dtc)Cl}2{ReN(Et22tc)2}2{SbCl3}2] — ein neuer vierkerniger Rheniumkomplex mit asymmetrischen Nitridobrücken

[{ReN(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)Cl}₂{ReN(Et₂dtc)₂}₂{SbCl₃}₂] — a Novel Tetranuclear Rhenium Complex with Asymmetric Nitrido Bridges The reaction of [ReN(Et₂dtc)₂(Me2₂hP)] (Me₂PhP = dimethylphenylphosphine, Et₂dtc^‐ = diethyldithiocarbamate) with SbCl₃ in dichloromethane results in the formation of [{ReN(Me₂PhP)(Et2₂tc)Cl}₂{ReN(Et₂dtc)₂}₂{SbCl₃}₂]. A {Re≡N‐}₄ ring with asymmetric nitrido bridges is stabilised by the co‐ordination of SbCl₃ onto the chloro ligands and sulphur atoms of the dithiocarbamates. The compound decomposes upon heating in acetonitrile and the fragments of the tetrameric complex re‐arrange to form [ReN‐(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)Cl]₄ and [ReN(Et₂dtc)₂]. The multinuclear rhenium compounds have been studied by X‐ray crystallography. The 8‐membered {Re≡N‐}₄ ring system in [{ReN(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)Cl}2₂ReN(Et₂dtc)₂}₂{SbCl₃}₂] is almost planar, while that of [ReN(Me₂PhP)(Et₂dtc)Cl]₄ is clearly V‐shaped when viewed down either diagonal Re…Re axis. A dihedral angle of 47.88(2)° has been found between the contributing planes.

Chalcogenohalogenogallates(III) and -indates(III): A New Class of Compounds for Elements of the Third Main Group. Preparation and Structure of [Ph₄P]₂[In₂SX₆], [Et₄N]₃[In₃E₃Cl₆] · MeCN and [Et₄N]₃[Ga₃S₃Cl₆] · THF (X = Cl, Br; E = S, Se) [In₂SCl₆]^2?, [In₂SBr₆]^2?, [In₃S₃Cl₆]^3?, [In₃Se₃Cl₆]^3?, and [Ga₃S₃Cl₆]^3? were synthesised as the first known chalcogenohalogeno anions of main group 3 elements. [Ph₄P]₂[In₂SCl₆] ( 1 ) (P1 ; a = 10.876(4) Å, b = 12.711(6) Å, c = 19.634(7) Å, α = 107.21(3)°, β = 96.80(3)°, γ = 109.78(3)°; Z = 2) and [Ph₄P]₂[In₂SBr₆] ( 2 ) (C2/c; a = 48.290(9) Å, b = 11.974(4) Å, c = 17.188(5) Å, β = 93.57(3)°, Z = 8) were prepared by reaction of InX₃, (CH₃)₃SiSSi(CH₃)₃ and Ph₄PX (X = Cl, Br) in acetonitrile. The reaction of MCl₃ (M = Ga, In) with Et₄NSH/Et₄NSeH in acetonitrile gave [Et₄N]₃[In₃S₃Cl₆] · MeCN ( 3 ) (P2₁/c; a = 17.328(4) Å, b = 12.694(3) Å, c = 21.409(4) Å, β = 112.18(1)°, Z = 4), [Et₄N]₃[In₃Se₃Cl₆] · MeCN ( 4 ) (P2₁/c; a = 17.460(4) Å, b = 12.816(2) Å, c = 21.513(4) Å, β = 112.16(2)°, Z = 4), and [Et₄N]₃[Ga₃S₃Cl₆] · THF ( 5 ) (P2₁/n; a = 11.967(3) Å, b = 23.404(9) Å, c = 16.260(3) Å, β = 90.75(2)°, Z = 4). The [In₂SX₆]^2? anions (X = Cl, Br) in 1 and 2 consist of two InSX₃ tetrahedra sharing a common sulfur atom. The frameworks of 3, 4 and 5 each contain a six-membered ring of alternating metal and chalcogen atoms. Two terminal chlorine atoms complete a distorted tetrahedral coordination sphere around each metal atom.     

Halogenomercurate: Darstellung und Strukturen von [Cu(en)2][Hg2Cl6], [Cu(en)2][Hg2Br6] und [Cu(en)2][HgBr4]

Halomercurates: Syntheses and Crystal Structures of [Cu(en)₂][Hg₂Cl₆], [Cu(en)₂][Hg₂Br₆], and [Cu(en)₂][HgBr₄] Crystals of [Cu(en)₂][Hg₂Cl₆] ( 1 ) have been obtained by layering a solution of Hg(NO₃)₂ and NaCl with a solution of [Cu(en)₂]SO₄. An analogous procedure, using NaBr instead of NaCl, gave crystals of [Cu(en)₂][HgBr₄] ( 3 ). Crystals of [Cu(en)₂][Hg₂Br₆] ( 2 ) were obtained by gel crystallization using the same starting materials as for 3 . The complexes show very low solubility. The dinuclear anions of 1 consist of two nearly planar HgCl₃ units related by a center of symmetry. In 2 infinite anionic chains are present, made up of parallel HgBr₃ units. These units are packed in such a way as to produce a trigonal bipyramidal configuration around the Hg atoms. 3 contains mononuclear deformed tetrahedral [HgBr₄]^2– anions. In all three complexes the packing of the ions is such that halogen atoms of halomercurate anions complete a tetragonal bipyramidal coordination at Cu. The resulting Cu–Halogen distances are 2.924 Å for 1 , 3.036 Å for 2 and 3.085 and 3.119 Å for 3 . 1 : Space group P 1, Z = 1, lattice constants at 20 °C: a = 7.000(2), b = 7.526(2), c = 8.239(2) Å; α = 88.39(2), β = 86.06(2), γ = 86.10(3)°; R₁ = 0.040. 2 : Space group P2₁/c, Z = 2, lattice constants at –50 °C: a = 7.185(1), b = 16.338(2), c = 7.814(1) Å; β = 94.88(2)°; R₁ = 0.033. 3 : Space group P2₁/n, Z = 4, lattice constants at 20 °C: a = 8.055(3), b = 13.101(3), c = 13.814(3) Å; β = 91.24(3)°; R₁ = 0.092.     

Darstellung und Struktur der Komplexverbindungen trans‐[CoIII(py)4F2][H2F3] und [Pd(py)4]F2 · 1,5 HF · 2 H2O

Synthesis and Crystal Structures of the Complexes trans ‐[Co^III(py)₄F₂][H₂F₃] and [Pd(py)₄]F₂ · 1.5 HF · 2 H₂O The cobalt complex trans‐[Co(III)(py)₄F₂][H₂F₃] ( 1 ) has been prepared by electrochemical oxidation of CoF₂ in a pyridine/HF mixture and the palladium complex [Pd(py)₄]F₂ · 1.5 HF · 2 H₂O ( 2 ) has been obtained via halogen exchange between Pd(py)₂Cl₂ and AgF₂ in pyridine. 1 and 2 crystallize in the space group C2/c with a = 27.928(14), b = 9.019(3), c = 18.335(8) Å, β = 113.41(3)° for 1 and a = 28.183(9), b = 9.399(3), c = 17.397(6) Å, β = 104.66(3)° for 2 , respectively. Concerning the shape and location of the M(py)₄ fragments 1 and 2 are isostructural. The metal atoms occupy special positions in their unit cells with the result that four complex atoms have C₂ symmetry and four complex cations have C_i symmetry giving a total of Z = 8. In 1 two F^– ions complete an octahedral coordination around the Co atoms (Co–F 1.820(2) to 1.834(3) Å). In 2 the shortest Pd–F distance is 3.031(2) Å. This precludes the existence of Pd–F bonds. In 1 one can identify H₂F₃^– groups. In 2 there are larger aggregates, consisting of F^–, HF, and H₂O subunits, connected by H‐bridges. In spite of these differences, both complexes belong to the same type of structure, which may be of a common type M^x+(py)₄F_x · y HF · z H₂O.     

Crystal Structures of [Mn2(H2O)4(phen)2(C4H4O4)2] · 2 H2O and [Mn(phen)2(H2O)2][Mn(phen)2(C4H4O4)](C4H4O4) · 7 H2O

Reactions of 1,10‐phenanthroline monohydrate, Na₂C₄H₄O₄ · 6 H₂O and MnSO₄ · H₂O in CH₃OH/H₂O yielded a mixture of [Mn₂(H₂O)₄(phen)₂(C₄H₄O₄)₂] · 2 H₂O ( 1 ) and [Mn(phen)₂(H₂O)₂][Mn(phen)₂(C₄H₄O₄)](C₄H₄O₄) · 7 H₂O ( 2 ). The crystal structure of 1 (P1 (no. 2), a = 8.257(1) Å, b = 8.395(1) Å, c = 12.879(2) Å, α = 95.33(1)°, β = 104.56(1)°, γ = 106.76(1)°, V = 814.1(2) ų, Z = 1) consists of the dinuclear [Mn₂(H₂O)₄(phen)₂(C₄H₄O₄)₂] molecules and hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules. The centrosymmetric dinuclear molecules, in which the Mn atoms are octahedrally coordinated by two N atoms of one phen ligand and four O atoms from two H₂O molecules and two bis‐monodentate succinato ligands, are assembled via π‐π stacking interactions into 2 D supramolecular layers parallel to (101) (d(Mn–O) = 2.123–2.265 Å, d(Mn–N) = 2.307 Å). The crystal structure of 2 (P1 (no. 2), a = 14.289(2) Å, b = 15.182(2) Å, c = 15.913(2) Å, α = 67.108(7)°, β = 87.27(1)°, γ = 68.216(8)°, V = 2934.2(7) ų, Z = 2) is composed of the [Mn(phen)₂(H₂O)₂]²⁺ cations, [Mn(phen)₂(C₄H₄O₄)] complex molecules, (C₄H₄O₄)^2– anions, and H₂O molecules. The (C₄H₄O₄)^2– anions and H₂O molecules form 3 D hydrogen bonded network and the cations and complex molecules in the tunnels along [001] and [011], respectively, are assembled via the π‐π stacking interactions into 1 D supramolecular chains. The Mn atoms are octahedrally coordinated by four N atoms of two bidentate chelating phen ligands and two water O atoms or two carboxyl O atoms (d(Mn–O) = 2.088–2.129 Å, d(Mn–N) = 2.277–2.355 Å). Interestingly, the succinato ligands in the complex molecules assume gauche conformation bidentately to chelate the Mn atoms into seven‐membered rings.     

Synthese,EPR und Röntgenkristallstrukturanalyse von mer-Trichloro(2,2′-bipyridin)nitridotechnetium(VI), einem neuen Nitridokomplex des Technetium(VI)

Synthesis, EPR and X-Ray Structure of mer-Trichloro(2,2′-bipyridine)nitridotechnetium(VI) — a new Technetium(VI) Nitrido Complex mer-Trichloro(2,2′-bipyridine)nitridotechnetium(VI) has been prepared by the reaction of (NBu₄)[TcNCl₄] with 2,2′-bipyridine in acetonitrile, whereas the same procedure gives in methanol the technetium(V) cation [TcNCl(bipy)₂]⁺. The EPR spectrum of [TcNCl₃(bipy)] suggests a meridional coordination of the three chloro ligands. [TcNCl₃(bipy)] crystallizes monoclinic in the space group P2₁/n; a = 8.572(1), b = 15.462(1), c = 10.110(1) Å, β = 104.21(1)°, Z = 4. The R value converged at 0.034 on the basis of 3 040 reflections. The technetium atom is distorted octahedrally coordinated with the chloro ligands meridionally cis with respect to the nitrido nitrogen. The Tc? N(1) bond length is 1.669(4) Å, and the Tc? N(3) bond (2.371(4) Å) is significantly lengthened due to the structural trans labilizing influence of the “N^3?” ligand.     

Reactions of Nitridotechnetium(V) Complexes with Boranes

Nitrido bridges between technetium and boron were formed during reactions of [TcN(PMe₂Ph)(Et₂dtc)₂] (Et₂dtc^? = diethyldithiocarbamate) and BH₃ or BPhCl₂ at low temperatures. X‐Ray structure determinations show that the products contain almost linear Tc–N–B bonds with Tc–N distances which are only slightly lengthened with respect to the triple bonds in the precursor molecule. However, a significant lengthening of the Tc–S bond trans to the nitrido ligand is detected by the decrease of the structural trans influence of “N^3?”N. The compounds are instable and decompose at room temperature under cleavage of the N–B bonds. A reaction between [TcNCl₂(PPh₃)₂] and BCl₃ does not yield a product with a nitrido bridge. Prolonged heating in dichloromethane results in decomposition of the technetium complex and the formation of (HPPh₃)₂[TcCl₆]. Hydrogen bonds are established between the complex anion and each two counter ions.     

Darstellung und Strukturen von (Et4N)2[Re(CO)3(NCS)3] und (Et4N)[Re(CO)2Br4]

Syntheses and Structures of (Et₄N)₂[Re(CO)₃(NCS)₃] and (Et₄N)[Re(CO)₂Br₄] Rhenium(I) and rhenium(III) carbonyl complexes can easily be prepared by ligand exchange reactions starting from (Et₄N)₂[Re(CO)₃Br₃]. Using nonoxidizing reagents the facial Re^I(CO)₃ unit remains and only the bromo ligands are exchanged. Following this procedure, (Et₄N)₂[Re(CO)₃(NCS)₃] can be obtained in high yield and purity using trimethylsilylisothiocyanate. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n, a = 18.442(5), b = 17.724(3), c = 18.668(5) Å, β = 92.54(1)°, Z = 8. The NCS^? ligands are coordinated via nitrogen. The reaction of [Re(CO)₃Br₃]^2? with Br₂ yields the rhenium(III) anion [Re(CO)₂Br₄]^?. The tetraethylammonium salt of this complex crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric, orthorhombic space group Cmc2₁, a = 8.311(1), b = 25.480(6), c = 8.624(1) Å, Z = 4. The carbonyl ligands are positioned in a cis arrangement. Their strong trans influence causes a lengthening of the Re? Br bond distances by at least 0.05 Å.     

On the preparation of binuclear S,S bridged molybdenum(V) complexes crystal and molecular structure of [Mo2S4(Et2dtc)2]

MoO₄^2? is reduced by diethyldithiocarbamate (Et₂dtc^?) on prolonged digestion in aqueous medium whereby the complex [Mo₂^VO₂S₂(Et₂dtc)₂] is formed. The central moiety Mo₂O₂S₂²⁺ has a high formation tendency. When [Mo₂^V(S₂)₆]^2? is refluxed with Et₂dtc^? in ethanol, [Mo₂^VS (Et₂dtc)₂] is formed, the X-ray crystal structure of which has been determined (space group P2₁2₁2₁, a = 10.550(2) Å, b = 13.820(5) Å, c = 14.723(12) Å, d_c = 1.90 g · cm^3?, Z = 4). The Mo? Mo distance of the diamagnetic compound is 2.817(2) Å and the average Mo=S_t distance 2.099(4) Å.

They are isotype (monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, Z = 2) with lattice parameters: (Bu₄N)₂[Au(i-mnts)]₂; a = 14.078(3) Å, b = 8.912(3) Å, c = 20.142(4) Å, β = 106.32(5)°; (Bu₄N)₂[Au(i-mns)]₂; a = 13.998(3) Å, b = 9.125(3) Å, c = 20.039(2) Å, β = 105.12(5)°. Ab initio Hartree-Fock calculations based on the experimentally determined structure yield a positive value of the Au? Au bonding order suggesting weak bonding interactions between the d¹⁰ metal centres.

The reaction of dibenzenediselenide, (SePh)₂, with mercury in refluxing xylene gives bis(benzeneselenolato)mercury(II), [Hg(SePh)₂], in a good yield. (ⁿBu₄N)[Hg(SePh)₃] is obtained by the reaction of [Hg(SePh)₂] with a solution of [SePh]^– and (ⁿBu₄N)Br in ethanol. The solid state structures of both compounds have been determined by X-ray diffraction. The mercury atom in [Hg(SePh)₂] (space group C2, a = 7.428(2), b = 5.670(1), c = 14.796(4) Å, β = 103.60(1)°) is linearly co-ordinated by two selenium atoms (Hg–Se = 2.471(2) Å, Se–Hg–Se = 178.0(3)°). Additional weak interactions between the metal and selenium atoms of neighbouring molecules (Hg…Se = 3.4–3.6 Å) associate the [Hg(SePh)₂] units to layers. The crystal structure of (ⁿBu₄N)[Hg(SePh)₃] (space group P2₁/c, a = 9.741(1), b = 17.334(1), c = 21.785(1) Å, β = 95.27(5)°) consists of discrete complex anions and (ⁿBu₄N)⁺ counter ions.

Four new heterobimetallic complexes [CuL¹][MnCl₄] (1), [CuL²][MnCl₄] (2), [NiL¹][MnCl₄] (3), [NiL²][MnCl₄] (4) (L¹?=?4,6,6-trimethyl-1,9-diamino-3,7-di-aza-nona-3-ene; L²?=?1,15-dihydroxy-7,9,9-trimethyl-3,6,10,13-tetra-aza-pentadeca-6-ene) have been prepared from elemental metals, ethylenediamine dihydrochloride or its N-(2-hydroxyethyl) derivative and acetone by the template condensation reaction. All complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR and UV-Visible spectroscopy. The structures of 2 and 3 have been determined by X-ray crystallography (2: Orthorhombic, Pna2 _1, a?=?20.136(4), b?=?11.185(2), c?=?10.251(2)Å, Z?=?4; 3: Orthorhombic, Pca2 _1, a?=?14.335(2), b?=?11.405(2), c?=?11.154(2)Å, Z?=?4 ). Both crystals consist of alternating complex cations [ML]²⁺ and anions [MnCl₄]^2? linked together by N–H···Cl–Mn and O–H···Cl–Mn hydrogen bonds forming 2D corrugated sheets in (2) and 1D helical chains in (3). Complex 2 represents the first single crystal structure elucidation of the complex containing L².     

Darstellung,spektroskopische Charakterisierung und Kristallstrukturen von [(C5H5N)2CH2][PtCl5(SCN)] und cis-[(C5H5N)2CH2][PtCl4(SCN)2]

X-Ray structure determinations on single crystals of [(C₅H₅N)₂CH₂][PtCl₅(SCN)] ( 1 ) (tetragonal, space group P 4₃, a = 7.687(1), c = 29.698(4), Z = 4) and cis-[(C₅H₅N)₂CH₂][PtCl₄(SCN)₂] ( 2 ) (monoclinic, space group P 2₁/n, a = 11.2467(9), b = 15.0445(10), c = 11.3179(13), β = 92.840(9)°, Z = 4) show, that the thiocyanate groups are coordinated via S atoms with average Pt–S distances of 2.339 Å and Pt–S–C angles of 104.7° up to 107.1°. Using the molecular parameters of the X-ray determinations the low temperature (10 K) IR and Raman spectra have been assigned by normal coordinate analyses. The valence force constants of the S–Pt–Cl˙ axes are f_d(PtS) = 1.81 ( 1 ) and 1.87 ( 2 ), f_d(PtCl ^× ) = 1.77 ( 1 ) and 1.81 ( 2 ), of the Cl–Pt–Cl axes are f_d(PtCl) = 1.93 ( 1 ) and 1.90 mdyn/Å ( 2 ). The ¹⁹⁵Pt NMR spectra from dichlormethane solutions exhibit each one sharp signal at 3975.6 ( 1 ) and 3231.6 ppm ( 2 ), respectively.     

Gemischtligandkomplexe des Technetiums. XVI. Darstellung und Struktur von (1,2-Dicyanoethen-1,2-dithiolato)bis(dimethylphenylphosphan)nitridotechnetium (V), [TcN(Me2PhP)2(mnt)]

Mixed-Ligand Complexes of Technetiums. XVI Synthesis and Structure of (1,2-Dicyanoethene-1,2-dithiolato)bis(dimethylphenylphosphine)nitridotechnetium(V), [TcN(Me₂PhP)₂(mnt)] [TcN(Me₂PhP)₂(mnt)] is formed from [TcNCl₂(Me₂PhP)₃] and one equivalent of the sodium salt of 1,2-dicyanoethene-1,2-dithiolate (Na₂mnt). The same reaction yields [TcN(mnt)₂]^2?, when a large excess of the ligand and long reaction periods are applied. The complex anion can be isolated as tetraalkylammonium or tetraphenylarsonium salts. [TcN(Me₂PhP)₂(mnt)] crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 (a = 10.000(5), b = 14.182(6), c = 17.77(1) Å, α = 98.77(3), β = 103.77(3), γ = 104.55(3)°; Z = 4). The coordination sphere is a square pyramid with the sulfur and phosphorus atoms as basal plane. Tc is situated out of this plane by 0.56 Å towards the nitrido ligand.     

Synthesis and spectroscopic Investigation of Mixed-Ligand Copper Chelates containing 2-hydroxyaryloximes and N-disubstituted dithiocarbamates. Crystal and molecular structure of trans-bis[propanone, 1-(2-hydroxy-phenyl)oximato] copper(II)

A series of mixed-ligand copper(II) chelates containing the anion of 2-hydroxyaryloxime(oxime) and N,N-disubstituted dithiocarbamate(dtc), [Cu(dtc)(oxime)], was prepared and characterised. The spectra (IR, ESR, electronic excitation) indicate that the CuNOS₂ chromophore attains square planar geometry. The ESR observables suggest appreciable covalency. In the case of [Cu(Et₂dtc)(oxime)] chelates, however, the observed data suggest distortion from square planar arrangement to a square pyramidal, indicative of a possible dimerism. In addition, the structure of the trans-bis[propanone, 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-oximato]copper(II), Cu(C₉H₁₀NO₂)₂ was determined by X-ray diffraction (monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 12.072(7) Å, b = 5.204(2) Å, c = 13.571(6) Å, β = 103.72(1)°, Z = 2). The molecule consists of discrete Cu(ppox)₂ monomeric units, where the Cu atom is in the equatorial plane bonded to two nitrogen atoms and two oxygen at distances of 1.949(2) and 1.882(2) Å, respectively.     

trans‐[TcNCl2(Ph3PNH)2] — Synthesis and Structure

The neutral technetium(V) phosphoraneimine complex [TcNCl₂(Ph₂PNH)₂] is formed when (Bu₄N)[TcOCl₄] reacts with Me₃SiNPPh₃ in dichloromethane. Distances of 2.078(4) and 2.102(4) Å have been found between Tc and the neutral triphenylphosphoraneimine ligands. The Tc‐N‐P angles are 133.7(3) and 134.8(3)°. The terminal nitrido ligand is formed by decomposition of an additional molecule of Me₃SiNPPh₃. The protons which are used for the protonation of the organic ligands are released during the decomposition of CH₂Cl₂. The same reaction yields the [TcNCl₄]^— anion when it is performed in acetonitrile.
