Abstract: | Mono- and Dinuclear Fluoro Complexes of Titanium (III), Chromium (III), and Iron(III). Syntheses and Structures of (NMe4) (Ti(H2O)4F2)TiF6 · H2O, (NMe4)3Cr2F9, and (NMe4)3Fe2F9 The title compounds have been prepared by reaction of MCl3 (M = Ti, Cr, Fe) with NMe4F in dimethylformamide. (NMe4)3Cr2F9 and (NMe4)3Fe2F9 contain the face-sharing biocathedral M2F93? unit. The M…M distances are 277.1(1) and 289.8(3) pm in (NMe4)3Cr2F9 and (NMe4)Fe2F9, respectively. (NMe4)(Ti(H2O)4F2)TiF6 · H2O contains trans-TiIII(H2O)4F2+ cations and TiIVF62? anions. Crystal data: (NMe4)3Cr2F9: hexagonal, space group P63/m, a = 804.1(3), c = 1857.5(4) pm, Z = 2, 529 reflections, R = 0.049; (NMe4)3Fe2F9: hexagonal, space group P63/m, a = 804.7(5), c = 1 861.6(5) pm, Z = 2, 635 reflections, R = 0,046; (NMe4)(Ti(H2O)4F2)TiF6 · H2O: orthorhombic, space group Pbca, a = 776.9(2), b = 1 616.3(3), c = 2 428.6(7) pm, Z = 8, 2 784 reflections, R = 0,056. |
