Über Thallium(I)-chlorooxomolybdate: Synthese und Kristallstrukturen von Tl[MoOCl4(NCCH3)], Tl[Mo2O2Cl7] und Tl2[Mo4O4Cl14] und die Struktur von Tl2[MoCl6]

On Thallium(I)-oxochloromolybdates: Synthesis and Crystal Structures of Tl[MoOCl₄(NCCH₃)], Tl[Mo₂O₂Cl₇], and Tl₂[Mo₄O₄Cl₁₄] and the Structure of Tl₂[MoCl₆] Black crystals of Tl₂[MoCl₆] are formed in the reaction of TlCl with MoOCl₃ in a sealed evacuated glass ampoule at 350 °C. The crystal structure analysis shows that Tl₂[MoCl₆] (cubic, Fm 3¯m, a = 986.35(7) pm) adopts the K₂[PtCl₆] structure with a Mo–Cl bond length of 236.6 pm. Tl[MoOCl₄(NCCH₃)] was obtained by the reaction of TlCl with MoOCl₃ in acetonitrile in form of yellow, moisture sensitive crystals. The structure (orthorhombic, Cmcm, a = 746.0(1), b = 1463.8(3), c = 857.3(2) pm) is built of Tl⁺ cations and octahedral [MoOCl₄(NCCH₃)]^– anions in which the acetonitrile ligand is bound in trans position to the oxygen. The reaction of TlCl and MoOCl₃ in dichloromethane yields Tl[Mo₂O₂Cl₇] and Tl₂[Mo₄O₄Cl₁₄] as green moisture sensitive crystals. The structure of Tl[Mo₂O₂Cl₇] (orthorhombic, Pmmn, a = 694.3(1), b = 951.9(2), c = 904.7(1) pm) consists of Tl⁺ cations and dinuclear [Mo₂O₂Cl₇]^– anions, with two equidistant chlorine bridges of 248.2 and one longer chlorine bridge of 265.7 pm. The oxygen atoms are located in the trans positions of the longer chloro bridge. The structure of Tl₂[Mo₄O₄Cl₁₄] (triclinic, P1¯, a = 692.8(1), b = 919.6(1), c = 998.9(1) pm, α = 104.94(1)°, β = 90.31(1)°, γ = 108.14(1)°) is build of Tl⁺ cations and [Mo₄O₄Cl₁₄]^2– anions which form tetramers of distorted octahedral, edgesharing (MoOCl₅) units with chlorine atoms in the bridging positions. The oxygen atoms are located in the trans positions of the longest chlorine bridges.     

Constitutional Isomerism of BiW6Cl15: (BiCl)[W6Cl14] and (BiCl2)[W6Cl13]

The compound (BiCl)[W₆Cl₁₄] was previously characterized as a product of the reduction of tungsten hexachloride with elemental bismuth. Another modification of BiW₆Cl₁₅ is now presented as (BiCl₂)[W₆Cl₁₃], based on the results of an X‐ray single crystal structure determination (space group P2₁/c, a = 1354.3(2) pm, b = 1234.4(2) pm, c = 1538.9(2) pm, and β = 118.76(1) °). The structure of (BiCl₂)[W₆Cl₁₃] contains chains of [(W₆Cl₈ⁱ)Cl₄^aCl_2/2^a–a]^– clusters bridged by chlorine atoms. The (BiCl₂)⁺ counterion exhibits two short Bi–Cl distances of 244.1(4) and 245.9(3) pm, respectively.

Crystal and Molecular Structure of fac-Trichloro-tris(dimethyl sulfoxide)bismuth(III) BiCl₃(DMSO)₃ Crystals of the known, although structurally not characterized title compound were fortuitously obtained from a reaction mixture containing (CH₃)₃SiN(SO₂CH₃)₂, BiCl₃, DMSO, CH₂Cl₂ and CH₃NO₂. Crystallographic data (at ?130°C): triclinic, space group P1 1, a = 816.1(5), b = 885.1(6), c = 1 360.6(8) pm, α = 77.58(3), β = 77.39(3), γ = 64.42(3)°, U = 0.8569 nm³, Z = 2. The DMSO ligands are bound through oxygen to the Bi atom. Important bond distances and angles in the resulting fac-octahedral complex are as follows: Bi? Cl 258.9, 261.0, 263.0, Bi? O 242.6, 245.7, 246.1 pm; Cl? Bi? O (trans) 170.3, 170.6, 176.9, Cl? Bi? Cl 94.6, 94.7, 96.0, O? Bi? O 81.7, 85.4, 87.9, Cl? Bi? O (cis) in the range 87.2–92.6, Bi? O? S 123.4, 126.1, 129.6°.     

Das Addukt von BiCl3 mit Mo6Cl12: [BiCl]-Hanteln in der Struktur von [BiCl][Mo6Cl14]

The Adduct of BiCl₃ and Mo₆Cl₁₂: [BiCl] Dumbbells in the Structure of [BiCl][Mo₆Cl₁₄] MoCl₃ reacts under decomposition to MoCl₂ and Cl₂ with BiCl₃ in a sealed evacuated glass ampoule at 550 °C to form light red crystals of [BiCl][Mo₆Cl₁₄]. The crystal structure determination (monoclinic, C 2/c, a = 1268.1(4) pm, b = 1304.6(3) pm, c = 2571.9(8) pm, β = 91.79(3)°, Z = 8) shows that the structure is built of [(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₆] units containing nearly regular octahedral Mo₆ clusters. These units are arranged in the motiv of a cubic closest packing. The octahedral interstices contain [BiCl] dumbbells with a Bi–Cl bond length of 249 pm. The coordination sphere of the Bi atom is completed by six weaker Bi–Cl-contacts of 275 to 308 pm length to a distorted monocapped trigonal prism. Neglecting the secondary Bi–Cl bonds, the title compound can be formulated as [(BiCl)²⁺][(Mo₆Cl₁₄)^2–].     

Tl2D coordination polymer involving close Tl?π (aromatic) contacts, [Tl3(μ-BPC)2(μ-NO3)]n

A two-dimensional polymer, [Tl₃(μ-BPC)₂(μ-NO₃)]_n [BPC = biphenyl-2-carboxylate], has been synthesized and characterized. Its single-crystal X-ray structure shows three types of Tl^I-ions with coordination numbers of 5 (Tl1 and Tl2), and 4 (Tl3). Two of the thallium atoms, Tl1 and Tl3, contain close Tl^I?π (aromatic) contacts, thus attaining a total hapticity of 11 and 10 with environments Tl1O₅C₆ and Tl3O₄C₆, respectively.     

Spectra and structure for Bi0-BiCl3-Li,K/Cl

Raman-scattering, electronic-absorption, and ESR spectra have been used to determine the states of bismuth and the structures of the compounds formed in molten chloride systems; it is found that BiCl₄ ^– with T_d symmetry are formed in BiCl₃-Li, K/Cl_eu melts, while a Bi⁰-BiCl₃-Li, K/Cl_eu melt produces the BiCl₄ ^– BiCl₃ + Cl^–; BiCl₃ + Bi⁰ Bi₂Cl₃ equilibria with the formation of Cl^– the quasitetrahedral ion in the second stage, which has a metal-bond and a single unpaired electron.Institute for General and Inorganic Chemistry, Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR, Kiev.

205Tl NMR studies: Ion pairing of Tl+ and (CH3)2Tl+ with NO 3 − and ClO 4 − in various solvents

The concentration dependence of the²⁰⁵Tl chemical shifts of Tl⁺ and of (CH₃)₂Tl⁺ ions was determined in several solvents with NO ₃ ^– and ClO ₄ ^– counterions. In general, increased ion pairing caused a low-frequency shift of the²⁰⁵Tl resonance, with the exceptions of (CH₃)₂TlNO₃ inn-butylamine and TlNO₃ in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and in hexamethylphosphorotriamide (HMPA). In HMPA,²⁰⁵Tl linewidths of both Tl⁺ and (CH₃)₂Tl⁺ increased dramatically with dilution below 0.1M. Analysis of the data allowed ion-pair formation constants and²⁰⁵Tl chemical shifts for the ion-paired cation and for the free (solvated) cation to be estimated for some of the solvents.     

Bismuth(III) dication trapped on a chlorobismuthate

Abstract

Metal cations observed with tetrachloroaluminate anion provide insights into the structure and stability of reactive cations. Addition of tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate anion (Tp^Me2) to [BiCl₂][AlCl₄] traps a bismuth(III) dication, [Tp^Me2Bi]²⁺, possessing a highly electrophilic bismuth center with short coordinate Bi―N bonds. [Tp^Me2Bi]²⁺ has weak interactions with the chlorides of [Bi₃Cl₁₃]_∞. Strong affinity of [Tp^Me2Bi]²⁺ with the triflate (OTf) observed in [Tp^Me2Bi(OTf)₃]^- demonstrates the high electrophilicity at bismuth.     

The crystal structure of the cation-disordered phase (Tl0.75Pb0.25)4Cl5

The 3 : 1 compound in the TlClPbCl₂ system crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric space group P4₁2₁2 (D₄⁴) or its enantiomorph P4₃2₁2 D₄⁶). Lattice constants are a = 8.450(1)Å and c = 14.927(1)Å. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction data were collected using AgKα radiation. The structure was determined by analysis of Patterson and difference Fourier syntheses. Least-squares refinement of 41 parameters with 402 unique data converged with R_w = 0.036. In the structure the 12 Tl(I) and 4 Pb(II) ions are disordered over two eightfold sites. The formula is therefore appropriately written as (Tl_0.75Pb_0.25)₄Cl₅. A difference in size of the two positions suggests a preferential concentration of Pb(II) in the smaller site. The disordering of aliovalent cations together with a three-dimensional network of face-sharing polyhedra of cations surrounding the anions of the structure suggests (Tl_0.75Pb_0.25)₄Cl₅ as a particularly favorable case for enhancement of chloride ion conductivity by doping with TlCl. Irregularities in the coordination polyhedra about the cations can be explained by the presence of stereochemically active lone-pair electrons of the cations. The structure of (Tl_0.75Pb_0.25)₄Cl₅ is similar to that of the alloy Zr₅Si₄.

Tl2CuAsO4 – ein Zwischenprodukt bei der Oxidation von Tl/Cu/As-Legierungen im Sauerstoffstrom

Tl₂CuAsO₄ – an Intermediate Phase in the Oxidation of Tl/Cu/As Alloys with Oxygen Waxy, honey-jellow single crystals of the new compound Tl₂CuAsO₄ (monoclinic, P2₁/c, a = 860.1(1) pm, b = 533.94(7) pm, c = 1200.1(2) pm, β = 98.10(1)°, Z = 4) were prepared as an intermediate product of the oxidation process in the reaction of Tl/Cu/As-alloys with oxygen. Their structure was determined from IPDS data (w2R = 0.071 for 1271 F² values and 74 parameters). The structure contains an isolated [Cu₂As₂O₈]^4– group consisting of two AsO₄-tetrahedra connected by two Cu⁺ ions with an approximately linear O–Cu–O coordination. The [Cu₂As₂O₈]^4– groups are linked to a threedimensional framework by thallium(I) ions which show an hemispheric coordination sphere of oxygen ions indicating the stereochemical activity of the Tl⁺ lone pair.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Three Homoleptic Bismuth Silanolates: [Bi(OSiR3)3] (R = Me,Et, iPr)

The bismuth tris(triorganosilanolates) [Bi(OSiR₃)₃] ( 1 , R = Me; 2 , R = Et; 3 , R = iPr) were prepared by reaction of R₃SiOH with [Bi(OtBu)₃]. Compound 1 crystallizes in the triclinic space group with Z = 2 and the lattice constants a = 10.323(1) Å, b = 13.805(1) Å, c = 21.096(1) Å and α = 91.871(4)°, β = 94.639(3)°, γ = 110.802(3)°. In the solid state compound 1 is a trimer as result of weak intermolecular bismuth‐oxygen interactions with Bi–O distances in the range 2.686(6)–3.227(3) Å. The coordination at the bismuth atoms Bi(1) and Bi(3) is best described as 3 + 2 coordination whereas Bi(2) shows a 3 + 3 coordination. The intramolecular Bi–O distances fall in the range 2.041(3)–2.119(3) Å. Compound 3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbcm with Z = 4 and the lattice constants a = 7.201(1) Å, b = 23.367(5) Å and c = 20.893(1) Å, whereas the triethylsilyl‐derivative 2 is liquid. In contrast to [Bi(OSiMe₃)₃] ( 1 ) compound 3 is monomeric in the solid state, but shows similar intramolecular Bi–O distances in the range 1.998(2)–2.065(5) Å. The bismuth silanolates are highly soluble in common organic solvents and strongly moisture sensitive. Compound 1 shows the lowest thermal stability.     

Dimensional reductions from 2-D Nb4P2S21 to 1-D ANb2PS10 (A=Na, K, Rb, Cs, Tl) and to 0-D Tl5[Nb2S4Cl8]Cl using halide molten salts

We found new synthetic routes to obtain 1-D quaternary thiophosphate compounds and a 0-D molecular complex containing a Nb₂S₄ core from a 2-D ternary thiophosphate, Nb₄P₂S₂₁. When Nb₄P₂S₂₁ was reacted with alkali metal halides (ACl; A=Na, K, Rb, Cs) or TlCl at 500-700 °C, the -S-S-S- bridges in 2-D Nb₂PS₁₀-S-S₁₀PNb₂ were excised to form a 1-D chain, and cations were inserted between the chains to form ANb₂PS₁₀ (A=Na, K, Rb, Cs, Tl). We also found that thallium chloride (TlCl) is an excellent reagent for further excision, and it substitutes chloride ligands for the sulfur ligands of 2-D Nb₄P₂S₂₁ to form the molecular complex Tl₅[Nb₂S₄Cl₈]Cl. Crystal data for TlNb₂PS₁₀: monoclinic, Pn, a=6.9452(11) Å, b=7.3761(12) Å, 12.873(2) Å, β=104.472(3)°, and Z=2. Crystal data for Tl₅[Nb₂S₄Cl₈]Cl: orthorhombic, Immm, a=7.001(5) Å, b=9.509(7) Å, c=15.546(11) Å, and Z=2.     

Synthesis of the monosubstituted arylcyanoxime and its Na,Tl(I) and Ag(I) compounds

Nitrosation of 2-chlorophenyl acetonitrile with t-butylnitrite under basic conditions (Meyer reaction) resulted in a high-yield preparation of the first substituted arylcyanoxime, 2-chlorophenyl(oximino)acetonitrile, H(2Cl–PhCO) (HL). The obtained cyanoxime is readily deprotonated in solution by metal hydroxides or carbonates with the formation of yellow sodium, tetrabutylammonium, thallium(I) and silver(I) derivatives. The crystal structure of the Tl(I) complex was determined. Thallium(I) salt (TlL) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁ n with a?=?3.8382(7), b?=?11.0065(18), c?=?20.901(4)?Å, and β?=?92.447(3)°, V?=?882.2(3) ų, Z?=?4; T?=?193?K (Mo?Kα radiation). The structure was solved by direct methods to a final R of 0.0689 (wR2?=?0.1650) for I?>?2σ(I). The crystal structure of the complex is a one-dimensional coordination polymer that consists of centrosymmetric [TlL]₂ dimers in which Tl₂O₂ rhombohedra are connected to each other at 90.72°. The crystal structure of TlL is an interesting example of the ruffled metal-organic network composed of Tl–O–Tl–O zigzag chains with close (3.838?Å) intermetallic distances comparable to those in metallic thallium (3.42?Å). The cyanoxime anion bridges metal centers and acts as a tridentate ligand where oxygen atoms of the oxime group bond to three different Tl(I) cations with three different bond lengths.     

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of the Thallium(I) Iodobismuthates(III) Tl7Bi3I16 and Tl3BiI6

Dark grey (dark red with transmitting light) crystals of heptathallium(I) hexadecaiodo‐tribismuthate(III), Tl₇Bi₃I₁₆, were obtained by slow cooling of a melt from 800 K to ambient temperature and, with higher crystal quality via solvothermal synthesis in aqueous HI by slowly cooling from 428 to 363 K. The compound is diamagnetic and melts congruently at 630(5) K. X‐ray diffraction on single‐crystals revealed that Tl₇Bi₃I₁₆ crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Cmcm with lattice parameters a = 2473.4(5), b = 1441.9(2), c = 3616.9(7) pm. The crystal structure can be interpreted as a layered intergrowth of fragments from the CsNiCl₃ and K₅Dy₃I₁₂ structure types with isolated [BiI₆]^3? octahedra and [Bi₂I₁₀]^4? double octahedra. Rotation and distortion of the complex anions establish coordination numbers (c.n.) between 7 and 9 for the Tl⁺ cations. Dark red crystals of trithallium(I) hexaiodo‐bismuthate(III), Tl₃BiI₆, are only accessible via hydrothermal synthesis in aqueous HI and slowly cooling from 428 to 363 K. Thermal analysis reveals a peritectoid decomposition at 540(5) K into the neighboring phases Tl₇Bi₃I₁₆ and TlI. Tl₃BiI₆ crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with lattice parameters a = 1352.6(3), b = 899.6(2), c = 1353.8(3) pm, and β = 104.18(3)°. In the crystal structure isolated [BiI₆]^3? octahedra are arranged according to the motif of a face‐centered pseudo‐cubic packing. Due to the tilted orientation of the [BiI₆]^3? groups the Tl⁺ cations have c.n. of 8 and 9. Although the crystal structure of Tl₃BiI₆ looks like a distorted variant of the elpasolith type, there is no symmetry relation according to a group subgroup formalism.     

Kinetics and mechanism of the solid state reaction TlCl + KI → TlI + KCl

The kinetics of the solid state displacement reaction TlCl + KI → TlI + KCl was investigated by the diffusion couple method (using single crystal disks and pellets) in the temperature range 215–300°C. Two distinct layers are present: the first, in contact with TlCl, formed by a solid solution of TlI in TlCl, grows with a linear rate; the second, in contact with KI, formed by two solid solutions of TlCl in TlI and in KCl, respectively, grows according to the parabolic law. From marker experiments and X-ray analyses on product layer surfaces parallel to the original interface, along with a comparison of the rate constants and the diffusion coefficients, it was possible to deduce that the overall process is governed by diffusion of Tl⁺ and Cl^? in the iodide-rich solid solution Tl(I, Cl) and that the rate-determining step is the diffusion of Tl⁺.     

Synthesen,Eigenschaften und Kristallstrukturen der Cluster‐Salze Bi6[PtBi6Cl12] und Bi2/3[PtBi6Cl12]

Syntheses, Properties and Crystal Structures of the Cluster Salts Bi₆[PtBi₆Cl₁₂] and Bi_2/3[PtBi₆Cl₁₂] Melting reactions of Bi with Pt and BiCl₃ yield shiny black, air insensitive crystals of the subchlorides Bi₆[PtBi₆Cl₁₂] and Bi_2/3[PtBi₆Cl₁₂]. Despite the substantial difference in the bismuth content the two compounds have almost the same pseudo‐cubic unit cell and follow the structural principle of a CsCl type cluster salt. Bi₆[PtBi₆Cl₁₂] consists of cuboctahedral [PtBi₆Cl₁₂]^2? clusters and Bi₆²⁺ polycations (a = 9.052(2) Å, α = 89.88(2)°, space group P 1, multiple twins). In the electron precise cluster anion, the Pt atom (18 electron count) centers an octahedron of Bi atoms whose edges are bridged by chlorine atoms. The Bi₆²⁺ cation, a nido cluster with 16 skeletal electrons, has the shape of a distorted octahedron with an opened edge. In Bi_2/3[PtBi₆Cl₁₂] the anion charge is compensated by weakly coordinating Bi³⁺ cations which are distributed statistically over two crystallographic positions (a = 9.048(2) Å, α = 90.44(3)°, space group ). Bi₆[PtBi₆Cl₁₂] is a semiconductor with a band gap of about 0.1 eV. The compound is diamagnetic at room temperature though a small paramagnetic contribution appears towards lower temperature.     

Synthesis and structural characterization of a new two-dimensional polymeric thallium(I) compound, {Tl[(H)phthalate)]} n

A two-dimensional polymer, {Tl[(H)phthalate)]} _n , has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR-, ¹H NMR- and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The single-crystal X-ray data show the coordination number Tl^I ion is six, TlO₆. However, the arrangement of O-atoms suggests a gap or hole in the coordination geometry around thallium. A stereo chemically ‘active’ electron lone pair of Tl^I possibly occupies this ‘hole’.     

Thallium-205 NMR spectroscopy. Solvation of the Tl(l) ion in the binary solvent systems water/pyridine,water/dimethyl sulfoxide,and pyridine/dimethyl sulfoxide

Solvation of the Tl⁺ ion in 0.005M solutions of water/pyridine, water/dimethyl sulfoxide, and pyridine/dimethyl sulfoxide was studied with ²⁰⁵ Tl NMR spectroscopy as a function of solvent composition and anion (NO ₃ ^– and ClO ₄ ^t- ). Dimethyl sulfoxide solvated the Tl⁺ ion more strongly than did pyridine, despite the latter's greater electron-donating ability. This was explained in terms of structural effects, which were found to be large for all three binary solvent systems. Ion pairing was evident in the DMSO/pyridine and water/pyridine solvent systems in which the pyridine mole fraction was greater than 0.8.
