Syntheses,molecular structures,and thermal decomposition of cyclopentadienyldicarbonylmanganese chalcogenide derivatives

Transmetallation of the dichalcogenide complexes [CpMn(CO)₂]₂(-X₂) (X = S or Se) with M(CO)₅(thf) (M = Cr or W) afforded new heterometallic complexes CpMn(CO)₂(-Se₂)Cr(CO)₅, CpMn(CO)₂(-Se₂)[Cr(CO)₅]₂, CpMn(CO)₂(-X₂)[W(CO)₅]₂ (X = S or Se), and CpMn(CO)₂(-Se₂)[Cr(CO)₅][W(CO)₅]. According to the X-ray diffraction data, their molecular structures contain the cyclic MnX₂ fragments coordinated by one or two M(CO)₅ groups via the X atoms. Study of thermal decomposition of the manganese complexes with different Mn : M : X ratios (M = Cr, W; X = S, Se, Te) by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry demonstrated that this process took place at rather low temperatures (100—400 °C) and was accompanied by complete elimination of the CO groups followed by elimination of the Cp groups. At any metal to chalcogen ratio, the resulting inorganic chalcogenides contained no impurities of metal oxides and carbides.     

Oxidation products of the niobium tungsten oxide Nb4W13O47: A high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy study

Nb₄W₁₃O₄₇, a member of the solid solution series Nb_8−nW_9+nO₄₇ (0?n?5), crystallizes in a threefold superstructure of the tetragonal tungsten bronze structure. While the oxidation of this reduced phase at T_OX=1200 °C leads to a separation into the thermodynamically stable phases, lower oxidation temperatures result in products that comprise new structural elements and ordering variants. The characterization of the oxidation products obtained at T_OX=1000 °C was performed by scanning transmission electron microscopy applying a high-angle annular dark field detector. At the selected imaging conditions (Z contrast), not only the metal positions are revealed by this technique but valuable additional information about the elemental distribution can be obtained simultaneously.     

Beiträge zur Chemie der Alkylverbindungen von Übergangsmetallen. 58. Zur Kenntnis von 2-(Dimethylaminomethyl)ferrocenyl-Verbindungen des Vanadiums,Molybdäns,Wolframs, Thoriums und Urans

Contributions to the Chemistry of Transition Metal Alkyl Compounds. 58 On 2-(Dimethylaminomethyl)ferrocenyl Compounds of Vanadium, Molybdenum, Tungsten, Thorium, and Uranium Earlier results according to which dimethylaminomethylferrocenyl groups (FcN) are able to form stable organometallic chelate compounds were confirmed by synthesis of the heterobimetallic chelate compounds (FcN)₂VO · Li(acac) II , (FcN)MoO₂(acac) III , (FcN)WOCl₃ IV , (FcN)Th(acac)₃ V , and (FcN)UO₂(acac) VI from the corresponding metal acetylacetonates or oxidchlorides and (FcN)Li I . The new compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, the i.r., ¹H-n.m.r., and electron spectra and by their effective magnetic moments.     

Isomerism of [FeMM′(μ3-Q)(CO)7CpCp′] heterometallic clusters (Q = Se, Te; M, M′ = Mo, W; Cp = η5-C5H5; Cp′ = Cp, η5-C5(CH3)5) in solids

The crystal structures of three cluster compounds: [(µ-H)Fe₂Mo(µ₃-Te)(CO)₈Cp*], [FeMo₂(µ₃-Te)(CO)_7x Cp*₂], and [FeMoW(µ₃-Te)(CO)₇CpCp*], where Cp = ⁵-C₅H₅, Cp* = ⁵-C₅ (CH₃)₅, have been investigated. In the cluster with a tetrahedral {FeMo₂Te} core, one can observe positional isomerism of the carbonyl and cyclopentadienyl ligands with respect to the plane through the Fe and Te atoms and the center of the Mo₂bond, resulting in two mirror isomers in the racemic crystal. In the cluster with the {FeMoWTe} core, additional chirality causes the formation of four diastereoisomers. Earlier, the structure of the [FeMoW(µ₃-Se)(CO)₇Cp] cluster with Mo and W atoms coordinated to identical Cp-ligands has been structurally defined. In this crystal, statistical disordering of Mo and W over the metal positions is observed. In the [FeMo(Cp*)W(Cp)(µ₃-Te)(CO)₇] cluster studied here, the Mo and W atoms are coordinated to different cyclopentadienyl ligands. Due to this, two of four diastereoisomers were isolated as ordered racemic crystals; the other two are nonexistent for steric reasons.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by A. V. Virovets, S. N.

Carbonyldinitrosyltris(fluorosulfato)tungstate(II) and ‐Molybdate(II) Anions: Synthesis,Spectroscopy, and Density Functional Theory Calculations

Carbonyldinitrosyltris(fluorosulfato)tungstate(II) and ‐molybdate‐(II) anions, [fac‐M(CO)(NO)₂(SO₃F)₃]^? (M=W, Mo), which are novel weakly coordinating anions that contain a metal carbonyl/nitrosyl moiety, have been generated in fluorosulfonic acid and completely characterized by multinuclear NMR, IR, and Raman spectroscopy as well as ESI mass spectrometry. ESI MS measurements performed for the first time on a superacidic solution system unambiguously reveal the formation of the monoanionic, mononuclear W and Mo complexes formulated as [M(CO)(NO)₂(SO₃F)₃]^? (M=W, Mo). Multinuclear NMR spectroscopic studies at natural abundance and ¹³C and ¹⁵N enrichment clearly indicate the presence of one CO ligand, two equivalent NO ligands, and two types of nonequivalent SO₃F^? groups in a 2:1 ratio. The IR and Raman spectra reveal that the two equivalent NO ligands have a cis conformation, thus indicating a fac structure. Density functional calculations at the B3LYP level of theory predict that these anions have a singlet ground state (¹A′) with a C_s symmetry along with C–O and N–O vibrational frequencies that are in agreement with the experimental observations. Mulliken population analysis shows that the monovalent negative charge is dispersed on the bulky sphere, the surface of which is covered by all the negatively charged O and F atoms with charge densities much lower than SO₃F^?, suggesting that [fac‐M(CO)(NO)₂(SO₃F)₃]^? (M=W, Mo) are weakly nucleophilic and poorly coordinating anions.     

Synthesis, Crystal Structure, UV-vis and EPR Studies of（ NH3CH2CH2NH2 ） 2.5 [ Mo0.5^（V）W0.5^（VI）O2 （ OC6H4O ） 2]

Cis-dioxo-metal complex ( NH3CH2CH2NH2 ) 2.5 [ Mo0.5^(V)W0.5^(VI)O2 ( OC6H4O ) 2] 1 was obtained by the reaction of tetra-butyl ammonium hexamolybdotungstate with 1, 2-dihydroxybenzene in the mixed solvent of CH3OH, CH3CN and ethylenediamine,and characterized by X-ray diffraction, UV-vis and EPR analysis. Compared with its analogous complexes (NH3CH2CH2NH2)3[Mo^(V)O2(OC6H40)2] 2 and (NH3CH2CH2NH2)2[W^(VI)O2(OC6H4O)2] 3, the results show that tungsten(VI) is less active in redox than molybdenum (VI) and that the change of the valence induced by substitution of W(VI) for Mo(V) in EMO2(OC6H40)2]n- does not influence the coordination geometry of the complex anion in which the metal center exhibits distorted octahedral coordination with cis-dioxo catechol. The responses to EPR of complexes 1 and 2 are active but complex 3 is silent,and the UV-vis spectra exhibited by the three complexes are obvious different because of the different electronic configuration between the central Mo(V) and W(VI) ions in the complexes.It is noteworthy that complexes 1 and 2 have the similar EPR signal to flavoenzyme, suggesting that the three complexes have the same coordination geometry feature with the co-factor of flavoenzyme.     

Crystallite Nanosize Effect on the Structural Transitions of WO3 Studied by Raman Spectroscopy

Nanocrystallites of tungsten oxide samples of 2, 4, 16, 35 and 60 nm of diameter were prepared by cryosol and pyrosol techniques. The pressure- and temperature-induced phase transitions of these samples were monitored by Raman spectrometry from 0.1 MPa to 34 GPa and from 77 to 1200 K. The tetragonal (α)-orthorhombic (β)-monoclinic (γ) transitions in these nanometric samples are strongly downshifted in temperature by comparison with the bulk WO₃. For instance, the tetragonal phase which exists above 1171 K for the bulk tungsten oxide can be stabilized at 700 K for the 35 nm sample. In the same way, the monoclinic P2₁/n-monoclinic P2₁/c high-pressure-induced transition is slightly shifted from 0.1 GPa to a higher pressure (1.5 GPa). The discussion of these transition-line shifts is based on thermodynamic considerations in which the surface energy of crystallites plays an important role.     

稀土钨青铜K0.71Nd0.028WO3的制备及其电性能

Tetragonal tungsten bronze K_0.71Nd_0.028WO₃ was synthesized by rare earth co-permeation method using Keggin type POMs of α-K₁₀[SiCu₃(OH₂)W₉O₃₇]·6H₂O (abbreviated as SiW₉Cu₃) as precursor. XRD, XPS, XRF, TG-DTA were used to characterize the resulting material. The XPS results indicate that Nd has permeated and diffused into the body of the sample and exists in tungsten bronze in the form of K_0.71Nd_0.028WO₃. The results of TG-DTA show that K_0.71Nd_0.028WO₃ begins to decompose at 320 ℃. The consequence of DC four-probe shows that the conductivity of the sample permeated by rare earth is 10³ times higher than that of the sample only permeated by methanol at room temperature. The conductivity of the sample only permeated by methanol is only 10^-3 S·cm^-1 but the conductivity of the sample permeated by rare earth is 1.65 S·cm^-1.
