Vibrational Spectroscopic Study of [1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane]metal(II) Tetracyanonickelate(II). 2 m-Xylene Clathrates

The M(bpa)₂Ni(CN)₄ (M = Fe and Co) host structure is similar to the classical Hofmann-type host framework composed of layers of a two dimensional catena-metal tetra--cyanonickelate(II) network, but in M(bpa)₂Ni(CN)₄ (M = Mn and Ni), the Ni(CN)₄ moiety behaves as a bidentate –[NC-Ni(CN)₂-CN–]– unit in the host framework.     

Clathrate and inclusion compounds: Part V. An infrared and Raman study of the decomposition of the Hofmann aniline clathrates M(NH3)2Ni(CN)4.2C6H5NH2 {M = Cd(II) and Ni(II)}

The time-dependent changes which are observed in the infrared and Raman spectra of samples of the two Hofmann aniline clathrates M(NH₃)₂Ni(CN)₄.an₂ {M = Cd(II), Ni(II), an = C₆H₅NH₂} indicate the occurrence of a solid state ligand replacement reaction in which the aniline guest molecule replaces the coordinated ammonia to give Man₂Ni(CN)₄ as the final product. The rate of replacement is greater for the cadmium than for the nickel clathrate, and for both clathrates evacuation of the sample greatly increases the rate of replacement. The Man₂Ni(CN)₄ complexes can themselves act as host lattices forming clathrates containing guest molecules such as aniline.     

Vibrational spectroscopic studies of 4,4′-bipyridyl metal(II) tetracyanonickelate complexes and their clathrates

The infrared spectra of M(4,4-bipyridyl)Ni(CN)₄ complexes (M=Ni or Cd) and their dioxane, benzene, toluene, aniline andN,N-dimethylaniline clathrates are reported. Additional information regarding the structure of the host lattice is obtained from the Raman spectra of the M=Cd complex. It is shown that the structure of the host lattice consists of infinite polymeric layers of {M-Ni(CN)₄} analogous to those of Hofmann type clathrates that have tetragonal symmetry. Bidentate 4,4-bipyridyl molecules form bridges between the metal atoms {M} in the adjacent {M-Ni(CN)₄} layers. It is found that the 4,4-bipyridyl molecules are centrosymmetric in this structure.Presented at the Fourth International Symposium on Inclusion Phenomena and the Third International Symposium on Cyclodextrins, Lancaster, U.K., 20–25 July 1986     

Vibrational spectroscopic studies of some dimethylpyrazine cadmium (II) tetracyanonickelate benzene clathrates: [Cd(C6H8N2)Ni(CN)4]·C6H6

Two new cadmium dimethylpyrazine (2,3-dimethylpyrazine or 2,5-dimethylpyrazine) tetracyanonickelate benzene clathrates, [Cd(C₆H₈N₂)Ni(CN)₄]·C₆H₆, have been prepared in powder form and characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermal analyses and elemental analyses. Vibrational assignments are proposed for the bands of the host lattice and guest molecule. It is shown that the spectra are consistent with a proposed crystal structure for these compounds derived from X-ray diffraction measurements. The C, H, N, Cd and Ni analyses were carried out for all the compounds. Thermal behaviors of these compounds are followed using TG and DTA techniques. The FT-IR, Raman spectroscopic, XRD, thermal and elemental analyses results propose that these compounds are similar in structure to the Hofmann-type clathrates. Their structure consists of planar polymeric layers, {M–Ni(CN)₄}_∞, formed from Ni(CN)₄ anions coordinated to the bridging 2,3- or 2,5-dimethylpyrazine molecules bound directly to the cadmium. The cadmium atoms are bound to four N atoms of the CN ions and, the Ni atoms are surrounded by four C atoms of the CN groups in a square-planar layer.

The 1,10-diaminodecane and 1,6-diaminohexane molecules in the host permit the inclusion of bulky guest molecules. The spectral data of clathrates were compared with those of the corresponding host. The spectral features suggest that these compounds are similar in structure to other Hofmann-type and Hofmann-T_d type clathrates, respectively.     

An infrared and raman spectroscopic study of metal(II) Di(2-methylpyridine) tetracyanonickelate complexes: Ni(C6H7N)2Ni(CN)4 and Cd(C6H7N)2Ni(CN)4

The results of an infrared and Raman spectroscopic study are reported for two new metal 2-methylpyridine tetracyanonickelate complexes, M(C₆H₇N)₂Ni(CN)₄, M=Ni or Cd. Their structure consists of corrugated polymeric layers of {M-Ni(CN)₄} with 2-methylpyridine molecules bound directly to the metal (M). These complexes can act as host lattices in the formation of inclusion compounds with dioxane guest molecules.     

[MPy4(NCO)2]-2Py clathrates (M = M(II) = Mn,Fe, Co,Ni, Cu,Zn, Cd; Py = pyridine)

The title compounds form an iso structural series and are isomorphic with other [MPy₄X₂]-2Py clathrates (XRD, KM4 diffractometer, cell parameters and space group Ccca from 17–80 reflections). In the clathrate [NiPy₄(NCO)₂]-2Py studied in detail (XRD, CAD-4 diffractom eter, λCuK_α, Ω/2θ scan mode, θ_max = 78‡, 990 strong reflections, 104 parameters, R = 0.053), the host molecule has 222 symmetry, and the twofold axes run along the coordination bonds. The transoctahedral environment of nickel consists of six nitrogen atoms of four pyridine and two isocyanate ligands. The coordination polyhedron is slightly distorted due to changes in the bond lengths. The molecule has a propeller conformation. The guest molecules lie in the cavities of the crystal structure in conformity with the van der Waals type of packing. The host complex [NiPy₄(NCO)₂] (XRD, CAD-4 diffractometer, 4615 strong reflections, 560 parameters, R-0.037) crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system (space group P1) with two independent asymmetric molecules in the unit cell. The molecular structure is analogous to that in the ciathrate phase, but the coordination angles are severely distorted; one of the molecules acquires a distorted propeller conformation, and the other, a centrosvmmetric conformation, which is less favorable. While being structurally identical, the [MPy₄(NCO)₂]-2Py clathrates differ heavily in the properties. The first four complexes dissociate to host complexes, and their thermal stability changes in the sequence Mn< Fe< Co< Ni; the Cu and Zn clathrates decompose in one step to dipyridine complexes with decomposition of host complexes. Decomposition of the Cd ciathrate follows one of these patterns depending on conditions. The results are compared with those for other known systems. Synthetic procedures are given.

Crystal Structure of Nickel- and Cobalt-Diazidotetrapyridinemetal(II)-2(Pyridine) Clathrates

[MPy₄(N₃)₂]2Py (M = Ni, Co) are clathrates where two of six pyridine species are included in the crystal structure of the host complex without chemical bonding. The clathrates are isostructural, orthorhombic, space group Pnna (52), Z = 4. For the Ni compound a = 14.958(5), b = 11.909(5), c = 17.517(7) Ú, V = 3120(2) Ú₃, µ = 12.25 cm-¹, final R = 0.057.The Cocompound is of very similar structure (a = 14.980(3), b =11.980(2), c = 17.350(5) Ú, V = 3114(1) Ú³, µ = 46.50 cm-¹. The metal cation in the host molecule is surrounded by six donor nitrogens of two terminal azido-groups in trans-positions and four pyridine ligands. The complex molecule lies on a twofold axis parallel to a.     

Comparing of the host–guest interaction in the Hofmann-1,10-diaminodecane and Hofmann-1,12-diaminododecane-type clathrates

M(1,12-diaminododecane)Ni(CN)4.G (M = Co, Ni or Cd; G = chlorobenzene; 1,2-; 1,3- or 1,4- dichlorobenzene) clathrates were prepared in powder form for the first time and their infrared spectra were reported and then compared with M(1,10-diaminodecane)Ni(CN)₄.1,5G (M = Co, Ni or Cd; G = chlorobenzene; 1,2-; 1,3- or 1,4-dichlorobenzene) clathrates. The spectral results suggest that the characteristic ν(CN) and δ(NiCN) frequencies are found to be similar to those known for the Hofmann type compounds, in that prepared compounds are similar in structure to this type compounds and their structures consist of polymeric layers [M–Ni(CN)₄]_∞ with the 1,12-diaminododecane molecule bound to the metal atom (M). Also, the results suggest that the ligand molecule with 10 to 12 of chain length have no effect on vibrational bands of the guest molecules in the similar Hofmann-diam-type clathrates. The normal mode frequencies and corresponding vibrational assignments of chlorobenzene and 1,2-; 1,3- or 1,4-dichlorobenzene in the ground state were calculated by DFT/B3LYP level of theory using the 6-311G(d, p) basis set in Gauss-view. In addition, these theoretical results were compared to the experimental results for the vibrational modes of host molecules.
