Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Spectroscopic Properties of the Cluster Anions [(Mo₆Br )X ]^2? with X^a = F, Cl, Br, I The tetrabutylammonium (TBA), tetraphenylphosphonium (TPP) and tetraphenylarsonium (TPAs) salts of the octa-μ₃-bromo-hexahalogeno-octahedro-hexamolybdate(2?) anions [(Mo₆Br)X]^2? (X^a = F, Cl, Br, I) are synthesized from solutions of the free acids H₂[(Mo₆Br)X] · 8 H₂O with X^a = Cl, Br, I. The crystal structures show systematic stretchings in the Mo? Mo bond length and a slight compression of the Brⁱ₈ cube in the F^a to I^a series. The cations do not change much. The i.r. and Raman spectra show at 10 K almost constant frequencies of the (Mo₆Brⁱ₈) cluster vibrations, whereas all modes with X^a ligand contribution are characteristically shifted. The most important bands are assigned by polarization measurements and the force constants are derived from normal coordinate analysis. The ⁹⁵Mo nmr signals are shifted to lower field with increasing electronegativity of the X^a ligands. The fluorine compound shows a sharp ¹⁹F nmr singlet at ?184.5 ppm.     

Schwingungsspektren der Clusterverbindungen (M6X)X · 8 H2O,M = Nb,Ta; Xi = CI,Br; Xa = CI,Br, I

Vibrational Spectra of the Cluster Compounds (M₆X₁₂ⁱ) · 8H₂O, M = Nb, Ta; Xⁱ = Cl, Br; X^a = Cl, Br, I IR and, for the first time, Raman spectra at 80 K of the cluster compounds (M₆X)X · 8H₂O; M = Nb, Ta; Xⁱ = Cl, Br; X^a = Cl, Br, I, have been recorded, characterized by typical frequencies of the (M₆X) unit, which are only slightly influenced by the terminal X^a ligands. The most intense line with the depolarisation ≈? 0.2 in all Raman spectra is caused by inphase movement of all atoms and assigned to the symmetric metal-metal vibration v₁, observed for the clusters (Nb₆Cl) at 233–234, for (Nb₆Br) at 186–187, for (Ta₆Cl) at 199–203, and for (Ta₆Br) at 176–179 cm^?1. The IR spectra exhibit in the same series intense bands at 233, 204, 207, and 179 cm^?1, assigned to the antisymmetric metal-metal vibration. The metal-metal frequencies are significantly higher than discussed before. The tantalum clusters show on excitation with the krypton line 647.1 nm in the region of a d–d transition at 645 nm a resonance Raman effect with series of overtones and combination bands. In case of (Ta₆Br) another polarisized band is observed at 229 cm^?1 and assigned to the Ta? Brⁱ vibration v₂. From the progressions of v₁ and v₂ anharmonicity constants of about ?3 cm^?1 are calculated indicating a strong distortion of the potential curves.

A B^IIB □M O₂₄ with A^II, B^II = Ba, Sr, Ca and M^VI = U, W Perovskites of type Ba₈B^IIB₂^III□UO₂₄ show polymorphic phase transformations of order disorder type. An 1:1 ordered orthorhombic HT form is transformed into a higher ordered LT modification with a fourfold cell content (four formula units Ba₈B^IIB□U₄O₂₄), compared to cubic 1:1 ordered perovskites A₂BMO₆. In the series Ba₈BaB□W₄O₂₄ and Sr₈SrB□W₄O₂₄ different ordering phenomena are observed. In comparison with 1:1 ordered cubic perovskites A₂BMO₆, the cell contains eight formula units AB^IIB□W₄O₂₄. The higher ordered cells with U^VI and W^VI are face centered, which has its origin in an ordering of cationic vacancies.     

Cs4[Sc6C]Cl13 und Cs4[Pr6(C2)]I13 — zwei Beispiele für das fehlende Bindeglied bei der Verknüpfung der Baueinheiten [M6Z]XX

The, overall, isotypic compounds contain isolated [Sc₆C] and [Pr₆(C₂)] clusters, respectively, that are surrounded by 18 halide (X) ligands (12 Xⁱ and 6 X^a; X = Cl or I). The connection is carried out via the motif [M₆Z]XXXX (M = Sc and Pr; Z = C and C₂, respectively) and is thereby the missing link of the motifs of connection for the composition A_x[M₆Z]X₁₃. Analogous interconnection of [TiO₆] octahedra is found in the anatase-type of structure of TiO₂.

Schwingungsspektren und Normalkoordinatenanalysen der 92Mo-, 100Mo-, 35Cl- und 37Cl-Isotopomeren der Clusteranionen [(Mo6X)Y]2−; Xi = Cl,Br; Ya = F,Cl, Br,I

Vibrational Spectra and Normal Coordinate Analysis of ⁹²Mo, ¹⁰⁰Mo, ³⁵Cl, and ³⁷Cl Isotopomers of the Cluster Anions [(Mo₆X )Y ]^2?; Xⁱ = Cl, Br; Y^a = F, Cl, Br, I The tetrabutylammonium (TBA) salts of the octa-μ₃-halogeno-hexahalogeno-octahedro-hexamolybdate(2 –) anions [(Mo₆X)Y]^2?; Xⁱ = Cl, Br; Y^a = F, Cl, Br, I; have been synthesized using ⁹²Mo, ¹⁰⁰Mo, ³⁵Cl, and ³⁷Cl. The 10 K IR and Raman spectra reveal significant frequency shifts due to the isotopic labelling of the Mo₆ cage, the inner sphere halides X₈ⁱ or the outer sphere ligands Y, respectively. The normal coordinate analysis yields (Mo? Mo) valence force constants of about 1.3 to 1.5 mdyn/Å. For the μ₃-bonded halogenes Clⁱ and Brⁱ valence force constants of 1.1 resp. 1.0 mdyn/Å are calculated. The values for (Mo? Y^a) bonds are found in the usual halide range. The observed isotopic shifts are verified very well by the calculations, allowing detailed assignment of the IR and Raman spectra of these compounds for the first time.     

19F-NMR-spektroskopischer Nachweis und statistische Untersuchung zur Bildung der gemischten Clusteranionen [(Mo6ICl)F]2−, n = 0–7, und Darstellung von (TBA)2[(Mo6I)F]

¹⁹F NMR Spectroscopic Evidence and Calculation of the Statistical Formation of Mixed Cluster Anions [(Mo₆I Cl )F ]^2?, n = 0–7, and Preparation of (TBA)₂[(Mo₆I )F ] The octa-μ₃-iodo-hexafluoro-hexamolybdate(2?)ion [(Mo₆I)F]^2? is prepared for the first time. The system of the 21 innersphere mixed clusters (Mo₆ICl)⁴⁺, n = 0–7 is formed by exchange of innersphere bound Clⁱ against outersphere bound I^a on tempering solid [(Mo₆Cl)I] at 400°C. Prolonged tempering leads to increasing average n values of the mixture, which is converted into the tetrabutylammonium salt (TBA)₂[(Mo₆ICl)F]. Using increments of chemical shifts and integral peak intensities the 54 ¹⁹F-nmr signals of the 21 species (compound n = 8 is absent) are assigned and confirmed by the 2 D-¹⁹F/¹⁹F-COSY spectrum. From the measured intensities the distribution of the different compounds is determined and proves significant deviation from statistical occupation, revealing the preference of isomers with iodine atoms occupying edges of the innersphere cube and discrimination of those sharing diagonals of the faces. Moreover all compounds with n = 3 and 4 are present overaverage in comparison to the others.

Theoretical evidence of d‐orbital aromaticity in anionic metal X (X = Sc,Y, La) clusters

The equilibrium geometries, total electronic energies, and vibrational frequencies for singlet, triplet, and quinted states of three all‐metal X (X = Sc, Y, and La) anions and nine relevant neutral singlet MX₃ (M = Li, Na, K, X = Sc, Y, La) clusters are investigated with four density functional theory (DFT) and correlated ab initio methods B3LYP, B3PW91, MP2, and CCSD(T). To our knowledge, the theoretical study on these clusters composed of the transition metal Sc, Y, La is first reported here. The calculated results show that for the X clusters the singlet states with trigonal D_3h structures are the lowest energetically, while the neutral singlet MX₃ clusters each have two stable isomers: one trigonal pyramidal C_3v and one bidentate C_2v structures with the pyramidal C_3v isomer being ground state. In addition, we calculate the resonance energies (RE) and nucleus‐independent chemical shift (NICS) for the singlet trigonal X rings and show that these singlet trigonal X rings exhibit higher degree of aromaticity. The detailed molecular orbital (MO) analyses reveal that the singlet trigonal X anions have one delocalized σ‐type and one delocalized π‐type MOs, which follow the 4n + 2 electron counting rule, respectively and play an important role in rendering these species two‐fold aromaticity. Here, an explicit theoretical evidence is given to prove that the contribution to the two‐fold aromaticity of the singlet trigonal X (X = Sc, Y, and La) rings originates primarily from the d‐orbital bonding interactions of these component transition metal X atoms. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A New Structure Type for Rare-Earth-Metal Cluster Compounds stabilized by transition metals: KPr6I10Os,CsPr6I10Fe,CsLa6I10Fe,and CsLa6I10Mn

Reactions of KI, Pr, PrI₃, and Os in niobium tubes at 800° yielded black, air- and moisture-sensitive crystals of Kpr₆I₁₀Os which were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction (orthorhombic, Pnma, a = 15.362(3), b = 13.498(2), c = 14.128(3) Å, Z = 4, R(F)/R_w = 4.4/5.6%). Subsequent parallel experiments also gave, according to Guinier powder pattern data, the isostructural compounds CsPr₆I₁₀Fe (a = 15.312(2), b = 13.426(1), c = 14.154(1) Å), CsLa₆I₁₀Fe (a = 15.523(2), b = 13.646(2), c = 14.334(1) Å) and CsLa₆I₁₀Mn (a = 15.457(4), b = 13.737(2), c = 14.329(2) Å). The important structural feature is the presence of octahedral rare-earth-metal cluster units R₆ that are centered by a transition-metal atom Z and bridged and interconnected by halide atoms. The new compounds exhibit the same general pattern of halide connectivity (R₆Z)XXXX as do the triclinic compounds R₆X₁₀Z. However, the structural arrangement of the metal octahedra is significantly different; they are linked by I^i–i atoms into zigzag chains along [010] and these are interconnected into a three dimensional network by I^i–a atoms to form channels in which the alkali-metal atoms are located. The introduction of alkali-metal atoms into reactions leads to new quaternary compounds with discrete rare-earth-metal clusters centered by transition metals and more open structure frameworks. Measurements of the temperature dependencies of the magnetic susceptibilities for CsLa₆I₁₀Fe and CsLa₆I₁₀Mn are consistent with expectations for 17- and 16-electron cluster systems, respectively.
