Synthesis,Crystal and Molecular Structures of [Co(MH)2(Thio)2][BF4] · H2O and [Co(DH)2(NH3)2][BF4]

Crystal structures of [Co(MH)₂(Thio)₂][BF₄] · H₂O (I) and [Co(DH)₂(NH₃)₂][BF₄] (II), where MH^– is H₃C–C(NOH)–C(NO^–)–H and DH^– is H₃C–C(NOH)–C(NO^–)–CH₃, were determined by X-ray diffraction. The crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c, unit cell parameters (for I and II, respectively): a = 22.018(2) Å, b = 7.943(1) Å, c = 11.681(1) Å, = 92.68(1)° and a = 21.436(2) Å, b = 6.400(2) Å, c = 12.389(2) Å, = 113.13(1)°. In both cases, the Co(III) coordination polyhedron is a centrosymmetrical trans-octahedron, N₄S₂ for I and N₆ for II. In the crystals of I and II, the complex cations and the outer-sphere [BF₄]^– anions (and the crystal water molecules in I) form elaborate hydrogen bonding system.     

Comparison of Ab Initio MP2/6-311+G(d,p) Predicted Carbon–Hydrogen Bond Distances with Experimentally Determined r 0 (C–H) Distances

Fifty different carbon–hydrogen distances have been predicted from ab initio MP2/6-311+G(d,p) calculations, which range from a short value of 1.0611 Å for HCNO to a long value of 1.1044 Å for H₂CO. The values include those predicted for a series of methyl (CH₃) moieties where the two different C–H distances vary by as much as 0.005 Å. These predicted values are compared to r ₀(C–H) distances obtained from the isolated carbon–hydrogen stretching frequencies, as well as to r ₀ or r _s parameters obtained from microwave data. Except for the very short C–H bonds, the ab initio values from the MP2/6–311+G(d,p) calculations can be used for the carbon–hydrogen distances with error limits of ± 0.003 Å. By utilizing the spectral data from CD₃CClO, it is shown that combination bands in the C–H stretching region could cause problems in the identification of the isolated C–H stretching frequency from the CD₂HCClO isotopomer. The value of the ab initio predicted C–H distances for checking unusually long or short r _s (C–H) or r ₀ values is demonstrated.     

Synthesis,crystal structure and magnetic properties of a two-dimensional mixed-valence assembly [Fe(salen)]2[Fe(CN)5NO]

A cyanide-bridged Fe^III–Fe^II mixed-valence assembly, [Fe^III(salen)]₂[Fe^II(CN)₅NO] [salen = N,N-ethylenebis(salicylideneiminato)dianion], prepared by slow diffusion of an aqueous solution of Na₂[Fe(CN)₅NO] · 2H₂O and a MeOH solution of [Fe(salen)NO₃] in an H tube, has been characterized by X-ray structure analysis, i.r. spectra and magnetic measurements. The product assumes a two-dimensional network structure consisting of pillow-like octanuclear [—Fe^II—CN—Fe^III—NC—]₄ units with dimensions: Fe^II—C = 1.942(7) Å, C—N = 1.139(9) Å, Fe^III—N = 2.173(6) Å, Fe^II—C—N = 178.0(6)°, Fe^III—N—C = 163.4(6)°. The Fe^II—N—O bond angle is linear (180.0°). The variable temperature magnetic susceptibility, measured in the 4.8–300 K range, indicates the presence of a weak intralayer antiferromagnetic interaction and gives an Fe^III–Fe^III exchange integral of –0.033 cm^–1.     

Natural abundance C REDOR coupled to a singly N-labeled nucleus: simultaneous determination of interatomic distances in crystalline ammonium [N] -glutamate monohydrate

REDOR technique was applied to natural abundance ¹³C nuclei coupled to a singly labeled ¹⁵N nucleus to determine the ¹³C, ¹⁵N interatomic distances simultaneously in crystalline ammonium [¹⁵N] -glutamate monohydrate (1). Consequently, the interatomic C–N distances between ¹⁵N and ¹³C=O, ¹³C_α, ¹³C_β, ¹³C_γ, and ¹³C_δ carbon nuclei for 1 were determined with a precision of ±0.15 Å, after the experimental conditions such as the location of samples in the rotor, length of π pulse etc. were carefully optimized. ¹³C-REDOR factors for three spin system, (ΔS/S₀)_CN1N2, and the sum of two isolated 2-spin system, (ΔS/S₀)^*=(ΔS/S₀)_CN1+(ΔS/S₀)_CN2, were further evaluated by the REDOR measurements on isotopically diluted 1 in a controlled manner. Subsequently, the intra- and intermolecular C–N distances were separated by searching the minima in the contour map of root mean square deviation (RMSD) between the theoretically and experimentally obtained (ΔS/S₀)^* values against two interatomic distances, r_C–N1 and r_C–N2. When the intramolecular C–N distance (r_C–N1) of the particular carbon nucleus is substantially shorter than the intermolecular one (r_C–N2), C–N distances within a single molecule were obtained with an accuracy of ±0.06 Å as in the cases of C=O, C_α and C_β carbon nuclei. C–N distances between the molecule in question and the nearest neighboring molecules can be also obtained, although accuracy was lower. On the contrary, it was difficult to determine the interatomic distances in the same molecule when the intermolecular dipolar contribution is larger than the intramolecular one as in the case of C_δ carbon nucleus.

Equilibrium Structure of Beryllium Dibromide from Combined Gas Electron Diffraction and Vibrational Spectroscopy Analysis

The molecular structure of BeBr₂ has been investigated by gas-phase electron diffraction at the temperature 800(10) K. The conventional analysis yielded the following values: r _g(Be–Br) = 1.944(6)Å, l(Be–Br) = 0.068(4)Å, r _g(Br–Br) = 3.848(8)Å, l(Br–Br) = 0.109(3)Å, k(Be–Br) = 1.1(1.1) × 10^–5 ų, (Br–Br) = 2.1(1.0) × 10^–5 ų. Three models of nuclear dynamics were used to simulate the conventional analysis values—infinitesimal vibrations and two models, which take into account the kinematic and dynamic anharmonicity of the bending vibration. All models give similar values of bond angle, amplitudes, and shrinkage, excluding the harmonic model, which yields too low value l(Br–Br). The equilibrium bond distance r _e(Be–Br) = 1.932(11) Å was estimated, taking into account the anharmonicity corrections for stretching and bending vibrations and centrifugal distortion.

Strong weakening of some intense low order reflections by extinction was observed, their anisotropy depends on the crystal and on temperature.

The interaction of PdCl ₄ ^2– with the macrocyclic ligands of the series [3k]aneN _k has been studied both in solution and in the solid state. [18]aneN₆ and [21]aneN₇ form both mono- and binuclear Pd²⁺ complexes, whose stability constants have been determined in 0.5 mol dm^–3 NaCl at 298.15 K. [21]aneN₇ also forms, in solution, a trinuclear species in which an amino group deprotonates to bridge two Pd²⁺ ions, as observed in the solid state. The crystal structure of the complexes [Pd₂([18]aneN₆)Cl₂][ClO₄]₂ and [Pd₃([21]aneN₇)Cl₃][ClO₄]₂ · H₂O have been solved by single crystal X-ray analysis.

These reactions have been followed by a microcalorimetric technique in 2 mol dm^–3 HCl solutions. The slowness of the reactions of (H₁₀[30]aneN₁₀)¹⁰⁺ with PdCl ₄ ^2– has been interpreted in terms of inclusion of the anion into the receptor's cavity as shown by the crystal structure of [(PdCl₄)(H₁₀[30]aneN₁₀)][PdCl₄]₂Cl₄: triclinic, space group PT,a = 7.760(3),b = 11.448(4),c = 13.399(11) Å, = 96.31(8)°, = 104.50(6)°, = 92.30(3)°,Z = 1.R = 0.046 andR _w = 0.039.This paper is dedicated to the memory of the late Dr C.

1:1 and 1:2 Complexes of Mercury(II) Halides with 1,3-Thiazolidine-2-thione. Spectral, Thermal, and Crystal Structure Studies

The series of compounds of the general formulae HgX₂(tzdtH) and HgX₂(tzdtH)₂ (X = Cl, Br, I; tzdtH = 1,3-thiazolidine-2-thione) have been prepared, as well as Hg(tzdt)₂. IR, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR spectral data of the complexes indicate thione donation, which is confirmed by the crystal structure analyses of [HgBr₂(tzdtH)]₂, [HgI₂(tzdtH)]₂, and HgI₂(tzdtH)₂. The structures of [HgBr₂(tzdtH)]₂ and [HgI₂(tzdtH)]₂ consist of centrosymmetric doubly bridged dimers, but they are not isostructural. The asymmetry in the HgX₂Hg bridge is more pronounced in the bromo than in the iodo derivative [S–Hg–X(terminal) is 138.19(9)° for X = Br and 123.49(10)° for X = I], which is accompanied by the stronger Hg–S covalent bond in the bromo than in the iodo complex [2.435(4) vs. 2.510(3) Å]. The Hg–X(bridging) (X = Br, I) bond distances are shorter than the sum of van der Waals radii for mercury and X. Dimeric centrosymmetric complex units are held together only by van der Waals forces in [HgI₂(tzdtH)]₂, while in [HgBr₂(tzdtH)]₂ there is an intramolecular hydrogen bond of N–H Br type (3.34(1) Å). HgI₂(tzdtH)₂ exists as a mononuclear tetrahedral complex with two long Hg–S [2.672(1) Å] and two short Hg–I bond distances [2.688(1) Å] related by a twofold axis. The molecules of HgI₂(tzdtH)₂ are linked into infinite chains along the c axis by intermolecular N–H S [3.38(1) Å] hydrogen bonds.     

Monodentate substitution reactions of [MO2(CN)4]n− type complexes: The crystal structure of the sodium thiocyanate adduct of tetramethylammonium tetracyanooxothiocyanatotungstate(IV)

The crystal structure of (Me₄N)₃[WO(CN)₄(NCS)]·NaNCS was determined from three-dimensional x-ray diffraction data. The dark blue crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/m, with cell dimensions a=13.105(4), b=12.688(2), c=18.871(3) Å, =100.4(8)°, z=4 and D=1.46 g cm^–3. Anisotropic refinement of 1333 observed reflections converged to R=0.068. The [WO(CN)₄(NCS)]^3– ion is a distorted octahedron with the tungsten atom displaced by 0.35 Å out of the plane formed by the four cyano ligands, towards the oxo ligand. The coordinated thiocyanate ligand is bonded to the tungsten atomvia the nitrogen atomtrans to the oxo ligand. Bond distances found: W–CN_av=2.14(3), W–O=1.61(2) and W–NCS=2.23(2) Å. The compound crystallizes as an adduct with an additional thiocyanate anion, ionically bonded to a severely disordered sodium cation. The results correlate with available data from similar complexes.
