(PPh4)2[(SN)ReCl3(μ‐N)(μ‐NSN)ReCl3(THF)] – ein Nitrido‐Thionitrosyl‐Dinitridosulfato‐Komplex des Rheniums

(PPh₄)₂(SN)ReCl₃(μ‐N)(μ‐NSN)ReCl₃(THF)] – a Nitrido‐Thionitrosyl‐Dinitridosulfato‐Complex of Rhenium The title compound has been prepared from PPh₄Re^VIICl₄(NSCl)₂] with excess N(SiMe₃)₃ in dichloromethane solution to give red‐brown single crystals after recrystallisation from acetonitrile/THF solutions. As a by‐product PPh₄ReNCl₄] is formed. (PPh₄)₂(SN)ReCl₃(μ‐N)(μ‐NSN)ReCl₃(THF)] ( 1 ): Space group P2₁/n, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at –80 °C: a = 1024.1(1), b = 2350.2(1), c = 2315.4(2) pm, β = 94.09(1)°, R₁ = 0.0403. In the complex anion of 1 the rhenium atoms are connected by an asymmetric Re≡N–Re bridge as well as by a (NSN)^4–‐bridge to form a planar Re₂N(NSN) six‐membered heterocycle. Both rhenium atoms are coordinated by three chlorine atoms, one of them by a thionitrosyl ligand, the other one by the oxygen atom of a thf molecule.
