The compound consists of cations [Ne(l5-crown-5)(CH₃CN)]⁺, in which the sodium ion is surrounded by the five O-atoms of the crown ether and by the N-atom of the acetonitrile molecule, as well as of anions, which form an ion pair {Na(15-crown-5)[MoCl₄(NO)₂]}^?. In the in pairs the sodium ion is coordinated by the five oxygen atoms of the crown ether and by two chlorine atoms of the [MoCI₄(NO)₂]^2? unit. The nitrosyl ligands take the cis-position a t the molybdenum atom which is in a distorted octahedrally fashion. [Na(15-crown-5)]₂[MoF₄Cl(NO)]. Space group C2/c, Z = 4, 1933 independent unique reflexions, R = 0.078. Lattice dimensions at ?7O°C: D : 1.585.8, b = 1171.5, c = 1771.5 pm, β = 114.91°. The compound forms an ion triple, in which the sodium ions are linked to five oxygen atoms each of the crown ether molecules, and to two F-atoms of the [MoF₄Cl(NO)]^2? unit. The F-atom which is arranged in trans-position to the nitrosyl ligand coordinates with both sodium ions; thus an unusual T-shaped arrangement results for this F-atom. The sole terminal F-Atom and the Cl-atom are disordered in two positions.     

Synthese von Nitrenkomplexen mit N-Trimethylsilylanilin. II. Charakterisierung und Kristallstruktur der Rhenium(V)-phenylnitren-Komplexe mer-[Re(NPh)Cl3(NH2Ph)(Ph3P)] und trans-[Re(NPh)(OMe)Cl2(Ph3P)2]

Synthesis of Phenylnitrene Complexes with N-Trimethylsilylaniline. II. Characterization and Crystal Structure of the Rhenium(V) Complexes mer-[Re(NPh)Cl₃(NH₂Ph)(Ph₃P)] and trans-[Re(NPh)(OMe)Cl₂(Ph₃P)₂] Reaction of [ReOCl₃(Ph₃P)₂] with N-trimethylsilylaniline yields mer-[Re(NPh)Cl₃(Ph₃P)₂], which reacts under air with excess of N-trimethylsilylaniline to form [Re(NPh)Cl₃ · (NH₂Ph)(Ph₃P)]. Crystallization from CH₂Cl₂/MeOH affords [Re(NPh)(OMe)Cl₂(Ph₃P)₂] as an additional product. [Re(NPh)Cl₃(NH₂Ph)(Ph₃P)] crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a = 1 192.3(3); b = 1 918.9(3); c = 1 266.3(3) pm; β = 101.71(1)°; Z = 4. The rhenium atom has a distorted octahedral environment with the Cl atoms in meridional positions. The phenyl nitrene ligand is coordinated with an almost linear arrangement Re? N1? C40 = 166.8(6)° and with a bond distance Re?N = 170.5(6) pm. [Re(NPh)(OMe)Cl₂(Ph₃P)₂] · 1/2CH₂Cl₂ crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 : a = 1 103.1(4); b = 1 227.9(4); c = 1 711.3(5) pm; α = 70.48(3)°; β = 72.71(3)°; γ = 80.03(3)°; Z = 2. The rhenium atom exhibits a distorted octahedral coordination with the Cl atoms and the phosphine ligands in trans positions. As a consequence of the competition of the nitrene ligand and the trans-coordinated methoxy group the Re?;N bond length is slightly lengthened to 173.2(7) pm, while the Re? O bond length of 193.4(6) pm is short. The bond angles Re? N? C70 and Re? O? C80 are 173.3(7)° and 139.1(7)°, respectively.     

Komplexe von Osmium (VIII) und Rhenium (VII) mit fünffach koordiniertem Metallatom Kristallstruktur von PPh4[OsO4Cl] · CH2Cl2

Five-coordinated Complexes of Osmium (VIII) and Rhenium (VII). Crystal Structure of PPh₄[OsO₄Cl] · CH₂Cl₂ The five-coordinated anionic complexes [OsO₄Cl]^?, [OsO₄N₃]^?, and [ReO₃Cl₂]^? were isolated as tetraphenylphosphonium salts from reactions of OsO₄ and ReO₃Cl with PPh₄Cl and PPh₄N₃, respectively, in dichloromethane solution. The compounds which are characterized by their i.r. spectra, are thermally sensitive and form crystalline powders with colours ranging from orange to violet. The crystal structure of PPh₄[OsO₄Cl] · CH₂Cl₂ was determined and refined with X-ray diffraction data. (4212 independent, observed reflexions, R = 0.032). It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2/b with four formula units per unit cell. The cell dimensions are at ?110°C a = 1754, b = 2184 pm, c = 692 and γ = 106.7°. The structure consists of tetraphenylphosphonium cations and anions [OsO₄Cl]^? with five-coordinated Os atoms in a trigonal bipyramidal geometry with the chlorine ligand in an axial position. The anion can also be regarded as a OsO₄ tetrahedron, monocapped by a chloride ion. Each chloride ion is linked with two CH₂Cl₂ molecules via hydrogen bridges, forming chains in the direction c. The Os? Cl bond length (276 pm) is very long; the average OsO distance (172 pm) corresponds to that in the OsO₄ molecule (170 pm).
