(PNP)[TcX₄(Py)₂], X = Cl, Br, are formed. X-ray structure determinations on single crystals of these isotypic Tc^III complexes (monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, Z = 2, for X = Cl: a = 13.676(4), b = 9.102(3), c = 17.144(2) Å, β = 91.159(1)°; for X = Br: a = 13.972(2), b = 9.146(3), c = 17.285(4) Å, β = 90.789(2)°) result in the averaged bond distances Tc?

Preparation and spectroscopic characterization of the decahalogenodirhenates(IV), [Re₂X₁₀]^2?, X = Cl, Br On heating of [ReX₆]^2? with trifluoroacetic acid/trifluoroacetic anhydride (1 : 1), the edge-sharing bioctahedral anions [Re₂X₁₀]^2?, X = Cl, Br are formed, which IR and Raman spectra are assigned according to point group D_2h. The bands are found in three characteristic regions; at high wavenumbers stretching vibrations with terminal ligands v(ReCl_t): 367–321, v(ReBr_t): 242–195; in an intermediate region with bridging ligands v(ReCl_b): 278–250, v(ReBr_b): 201–167 cm^?1, and at distinct lower frequencies the deformation modes. The absorption spectra of the dirhenates are distinguished in the region 600–1400 nm by eight intraconfigurational transitions with a slight bathochromic shift and higher intensities in comparison to the monomeric complexes. Due to a stronger bonding of the terminal ligands the energy of the charge transfer bands is lowered by about 4 000 cm^?1, too.

The X-ray structure determination of (PNP)₂[ReFBr₅] · H₂O (monoclinic, space group P2₁/c with a = 21.498(2), b = 13.314(3), c = 23.945(2) Å, β = 105.235(7)°, Z = 4) reveals a completely ordered anion sublattice resulting from the solvent water linked to the F ligand by a hydrogen bond (O–F: 2.758(6) Å). Due to the stronger trans influence of Br compared with F on the F ^· –Re–Br′ axis the Re–Br′ distance is shortened by 0.6% with regard to symmetrically coordinated axes. Based on the molecular parameters of the X-Ray determination the low temperature (10 K) IR and Raman spectrum of the (Me₄N) salt is assigned by a normal coordinate analysis. The strengthening of the Re–Br′ bond due to the trans influence is indicated by an increase of the valence force constant f_d(ReBr′) = 1.43 by 8% as compared with f_d(ReBr) = 1.32 mdyn/Å of symmetric axes.

Compounds 2 were all characterized by elemental analysis, mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy, and the structures of 2b , 2c and 2d were determined by X‐ray diffractometry. Compounds 2a‐d are stable in chloroform and dichloromethane, but 2e and 2f are transformed into the corresponding trans, mer‐[ReBr(CO)₃L₂] complexes by a reaction for which a partial mechanism is put forward.

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.     

Synthesis of trans,trans-[MoX2py4][MoX4py2], trans-[MoX2py4]Br3, and structural identification of trans,trans-[MoX2py4][MoX4py2] (X = Cl,Br; py = pyridine)

Trans,trans-[MoX₂py₄][MoX₄py₂] (X = Cl, A; Br, B; py = pyridine, C₅H₅N) are the side products of reaction of between (NH₄)₂[MoX₅ · H₂O] (X = Cl,Br) with pyridine diluted with methanol. Both trans,trans-[MoX₂py₄][MoX₄py₂] are monoclinic, P2₁/n space group, with z = 2 and: a = 12.568(1), b = 9.430(1), c = 14.952(1) Å and β = 100.81(1)° (A); a = 12.551(2), b = 9.533(2), c = 15.366(2) (Å) and β = 99.35(1) (B). Cations and anions are located on the symmetry centers and have eclipsed conformation of the trans located pyridine ligands. Average Mo? X and Mo? N (pyridine) bonds are; (cation) 2.41, 2.21 Å (A); 2.54, 2.21 Å (B); (anion) 2.44, 2.20 Å (A); 2.58, 2.20 Å (B). Anionic part of the compounds can be oxidised by bromine to trans-MoX₄py₂, which precipitates from the solution. Cation can be isolated from the solution in the form of trans-[MoX₂py₄]Br₃ (X = Cl, Br). The compounds were also characterised by chemical analysis, infrared spectroscopy and conductivity measurements.     

Ruthenium(III)-Phthalocyanine: Darstelllung und Eigenschaften von Di(halogeno)phthalocyaninato(1−)ruthenium(III), [Ru(X)2Pc] (X = Cl,Br, I)

Ruthenium(III) Phthalocyanines: Synthesis and Properties of Di(halo)phthalocyaninato(1?)ruthenium(III) Di(halo)phthalocyaninato(1?)ruthenium(III), [Ru(X)₂Pc^?] (X = Cl, Br, I) is prepared by oxidation of [Ru(X)₂Pc^2?]^? (Cl, Br, OH) with halogene in dichloromethane. The magnetic moment of [Ru(X)₂Pc^?] is 2,48 μ_B (X = Cl) resp. 2,56 μ_B (X = Br) in accordance with a systeme of two independent spins (low spin Ru^III and Pc^?: S = 1/2). The optical spectra of the red violet solution of [Ru(X)₂Pc^?] (Cl, Br) are typical for the Pc^? ligand with the “B” at 13.5 kK, “Q₁” at 19.3 kK and “Q₂ region” at 31.9 kK. Sytematic spectral changes within the iron group are discussed. The presence of the Pc^? ligand is confirmed by the vibrational spectra, too. Characteristic are the metal dependent bands in the m.i.r. spectra at 1 352 and 1 458 cm^?1 and the strong Raman line at 1 600 cm^?1. The antisymmetric Ru? X stretch (v_as(Ru? X)) is observed at 189 cm^?1 (X = I) resp. 234 cm^?1 (X = Br). There are two interdependent bands at 295 and 327 cm^?1 in the region expected for v_as(Ru? Cl) attributed to strong interaction of v_as(Ru? Cl) with an out-of-plane Pc^? tilting mode of the same irreducible representation. Only the symmetric Ru? Br stretch at 183 cm^?1 is selectively enhanced in the resonance-Raman(RR) spectra. The Raman line at 168 cm^?1 of the diiodo complex is assigned to loosely bound iodine. The broad band at 978 cm^?1 in the RR spectra of the dichloro complex is due to an intraconfigurational transition within the electronic ground state of low spin Ru^III split by spin orbit coupling.     

Darstellung von Nonahalogenodiplatinaten(IV), [Pt2X9]−, X  Cl,Br Spektroskopische Charakterisierung,Normalkoordinatenanalyse und Kristallstruktur von (PPN)[Pt2Br9]

Preparation of the Nonahalogenodiplatinates(IV), [Pt₂X₉]^?, X ? Cl, Br Spectroscopic Characterization, Normal Coordinate Analysis, and Crystal Structure of (PPN)[Pt₂Br₉] On heating the tetrabutylammonium salts (TBA)₂[PtX₆], with trifluoroacetic acid the nonahalogenodiplatinates(IV) (TBA)[Pt₂X₉], with X ? Cl, Br are formed. The X-ray structure determination on (PPN)[Pt₂Br₉] (orthorhombic, space group Pca2, Z = 4) shows for the anions pairs of face-sharing octahedra with nearly D_3h symmetry. The mean terminal and bridging Pt? Br bond lengths are determined to be 2.42 and 2.52 Å, respectively. The electrostatic interaction of the Pt atoms results in the Pt? Pt distance of 3.23 Å and an elongation as it has been forecasted by the MO scheme for d⁶ systems. Using the structural data a normal coordinate analysis based on a general valence force field for [Pt₂Br₉]^? has been performed, revealing a good agreement of the calculated frequencies with the bands observed in the IR and Raman spectra. The stronger bonding of the terminal as compared to the bridging ligands is shown by the valence force constants, f_a(Br₁) = 1,55 > f_d(Br_b) = 0,93 mdyn/ Å.

The ³¹P{¹H}-NMR characteristics of the complexes [HgX₂( 1 )] and [HgX₂-(PPh₂Bz)₂] (X = NO₃, Cl, Br, I, SCN, CN) and the solid state structures of the complexes [HgCl₂( 1 )] and [HgI₂( 1 )] ( 1 = 2,11-bis (diphenylphosphinomethyl)benzo-[c]phenanthrene) have been determined. The ¹J(¹⁹⁹Hg, ³¹P) values increase in the order CN < I < SCN < Br < Cl < NO₃. The two molecular structures show a distorted tetrahedral geometry about mercury. Pertinent bond lengths and bond angles from the X-ray analysis are as follows: Hg? P = 2.485(7) Å and 2.509 (8) Å, Hg? Cl = 2.525 (8) Å and 2.505 (10) Å, P? Hg? P = 125.6(3)°, Cl? Hg? Cl = 97.0(3)° for [HgCl₂( 1 )] and Hg? P = 2.491 (10) Å and 2.500(11) Å, Hg? I = 2.858(5) Å and 2.832(3) Å, P? Hg? P = 146.0(4)°, I? Hg? I = 116.9(1)° for [HgI₂( 1 )]. The equation, derived previously, relating ¹J(¹⁹⁹Hg, ³¹P) and the angles P? Hg? P and X? Hg? X is shown to be valid for 1 .

Pyridine Complexes of Rare Earth Element Trichlorides. Syntheses and Crystal Structures of [YCl₃(py)₄] and [LnCl₃(py)₄] · 0.5 py with Ln = La and Er The pyridine complexes [YCl₃(py)₄] ( 1 ), [LaCl₃(py)₄] · 0.5 py ( 2 · 0.5 py), and [ErCl₃(py)₄] · 0.5 py ( 3 · 0.5 py) have been prepared from the diacetone‐alcohol complexes [LnCl₃(DAA)₂] or directly from the metal trichlorides with excess pyridine to give colourless, only sparingly moisture sensitive crystals. They were characterized by IR spectroscopy and by crystal structure determinations. 1 : Space group Pbca, Z = 16, lattice dimensions at –80 °C: a = 1647.4(1), b = 1743.1(1), c = 3190.5(1) pm, R₁ = 0.031. 2 · 0,5 Py: Space group P2₁/n, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at –80 °C: a = 978.9(1), b = 1704.5(1), c = 1589.5(1) pm, β = 103.61(1)°, R₁ = 0.0281. 3 · 0,5 Py: Space group P2₁/n, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at –80 °C: a = 970.1(1), b = 1706.4(1), c = 1566.1(1) pm, β = 103.46(1)°, R₁ = 0.0232. All complexes realize monomeric molecular structures with the metal atom in a distorted pentagonal‐bipyramidal coordination. One of the chlorine atoms and the four pyridine molecules are in the equatorial plane.     

Darstellung und Kristallstruktur von Tetraphenylphosphonium-Hexathiocyanatorhodat(III), [P(C6H5)4]3[Rh(SCN)6]

Preparation and Crystal Structure of Tetraphenylphosphonium Hexathiocyanatorhodate(III), [P(C₆H₅)₄]₃[Rh(SCN)₆] By treatment of RhCl₃ · n H₂O with KSCN in water a mixture of the linkage isomers [Rh(NCS)_n(SCN)_6–n]^3?, n = 0–2 is formed which is separated by ion exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose. The X-ray structure determination on a single crystal of [P(C₆H₅)₄]₃[Rh(SCN)₆] (monoclinic, space group C1c1, a = 13.620(5), b = 22.929(13), c = 22.899(9) Å, β = 98.55(3)°, Z = 4) confirms the coordination of all ligands via S with the middle Rh? S distance of 2.372 Å and Rh? S? C angles of 109°. The SCN groups are nearly linear with 175° and averaged bondlengths S? C 1.63 and C? N 1.14 Å. The crystal lattice is build up by layers of complex anions and voluminous cations with no specific interactions but which are closely connected by thiocyanate ligands and phenyl rings.
