Synthesis and characterisation of [tris(1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-dithiolato)-stannate]2−, [Q]2[Sn(dmit)3], [tris(1,3-dithiole-2-one-4,5-dithiolato)stannate]2−, [Q]2[Sn(dmio)3] and [tris(1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-selenolato)stannate]2−, [Q]2[Sn(dsit)3], complexes: Analysis of the structural variations of the [Sn(dmit)3]2− and [Sn(dmio)3]2− dianions

[Tris(1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-dithiolato)stannate]²⁻, [Q]₂[Sn(C₃S₅)₃], [tris(1,3-dithiole-2-one-4,5-dithiolato)stannate]²⁻, [Q]₂[Sn(C₃S₄O)₃], and [tris(1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-diselenolato)stannate]²⁻ [Q]₂[Sn(C₃S₃Se₂)₃], complexes, have been synthesised and characterised. Crystal structure determinations of [Q]₂[Sn(C₃S₅)₃] (Q=1,4-dimethylpyridinium, monoclinic and orthorhombic forms; NMe₄, NEt₄, and PPh₄) and [NEt₄]₂[Sn(C₃S₄O)₃] revealed variations in the overall dianion structures. The geometry about tin in each case is essentially octahedral with the chelate bite angles in the range 80.7(5)–87.45(4)°: the range of Sn–S distances is 2.5207(18)–2.571(17) Å. A statistical analysis, carried out on the crystal structure data for the six complexes, indicated that the most critical factors in controlling the overall shape of the dianion were the distances of the Sn atom from the dithiolate ligand planes [Sn–OOP]. Interanionic S⋯S interactions, within the sum of the van der Waals’ radii for two S atoms, are affected by the size of the cation, Q; the secondary connectivity is 3-dimensional for the smallest cations, Q=1,4-dimethylpyridinium and NMe₄, in chains for the somewhat larger cation, NEt₄ and is absent for the still larger, PPh₄ cation.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Bis[2-[2-(diethylamino)ethyliminomethyl]-4-nitrophenolato]dimethanolcobalt(II) Dinitrate

1 INTRODUCTION The significance of cobalt coordination com- pounds in biological systems is recognized[1～3]. In many instances the cobalt coordination compounds of Schiff bases have been suggested as models to describe energy transfer in naturally occurring systems. In such cases the coordination sphere about the metal ion is believed to play an important role in determining the nature of the model system[4, 5]. In order to investigate the structures of such complexes, we report herein t…     

Binary group 15 polyazides. structural characterization of [Bi(N3)4]-, [Bi(N3)5]2-, [bipy·Bi(N3)5]2-, [Bi(N3)6]3-, bipy·As(N3)3, bipy·Sb(N3)3, and [(bipy)2·Bi(N3)3]2 and on the lone pair activation of valence electrons

The binary group 15 polyazides As(N(3))(3), Sb(N(3))(3), and Bi(N(3))(3) were stabilized by either anion or donor-acceptor adduct formation. Crystal structures are reported for [Bi(N(3))(4)](-), [Bi(N(3))(5)](2-), [bipy·Bi(N(3))(5)](2-), [Bi(N(3))(6)](3-), bipy·As(N(3))(3), bipy·Sb(N(3))(3), and [(bipy)(2)·Bi(N(3))(3)](2). The lone valence electron pair on the central atom of these pnictogen(+III) compounds can be either sterically active or inactive. The [Bi(N(3))(5)](2-) anion possesses a sterically active lone pair and a monomeric pseudo-octahedral structure with a coordination number of 6, whereas its 2,2'-bipyridine adduct exhibits a pseudo-monocapped trigonal prismatic structure with CN 7 and a sterically inactive lone pair. Because of the high oxidizing power of Bi(+V), reactions aimed at Bi(N(3))(5) and [Bi(N(3))(6)](-) resulted in the reduction to bismuth(+III) compounds by [N(3)](-). The powder X-ray diffraction pattern of Bi(N(3))(3) was recorded at 298 K and is distinct from that calculated for Sb(N(3))(3) from its single-crystal data at 223 K. The [(bipy)(2)·Bi(N(3))(3)](2) adduct is dimeric and derived from two BiN(8) square antiprisms sharing an edge consisting of two μ(1,1)-bridging N(3) ligands and with bismuth having CN 8 and a sterically inactive lone pair. The novel bipy·As(N(3))(3) and bipy·Sb(N(3))(3) adducts are monomeric and isostructural and contain a sterically active lone pair on their central atom and a CN of 6. A systematic quantum chemical analysis of the structures of these polyazides suggests that the M06-2X density functional is well suited for the prediction of the steric activity of lone pairs in main-group chemistry. Furthermore, it was found that the solid-state structures can strongly differ from those of the free gas-phase species or those in solutions and that lone pairs that are sterically inactive in a chemical surrounding can become activated in the free isolated species.
