Darstellung und Strukturen von (Et4N)2[Re(CO)3(NCS)3] und (Et4N)[Re(CO)2Br4]

Syntheses and Structures of (Et₄N)₂[Re(CO)₃(NCS)₃] and (Et₄N)[Re(CO)₂Br₄] Rhenium(I) and rhenium(III) carbonyl complexes can easily be prepared by ligand exchange reactions starting from (Et₄N)₂[Re(CO)₃Br₃]. Using nonoxidizing reagents the facial Re^I(CO)₃ unit remains and only the bromo ligands are exchanged. Following this procedure, (Et₄N)₂[Re(CO)₃(NCS)₃] can be obtained in high yield and purity using trimethylsilylisothiocyanate. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n, a = 18.442(5), b = 17.724(3), c = 18.668(5) Å, β = 92.54(1)°, Z = 8. The NCS^? ligands are coordinated via nitrogen. The reaction of [Re(CO)₃Br₃]^2? with Br₂ yields the rhenium(III) anion [Re(CO)₂Br₄]^?. The tetraethylammonium salt of this complex crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric, orthorhombic space group Cmc2₁, a = 8.311(1), b = 25.480(6), c = 8.624(1) Å, Z = 4. The carbonyl ligands are positioned in a cis arrangement. Their strong trans influence causes a lengthening of the Re? Br bond distances by at least 0.05 Å.     

Kristallstrukturen,spektroskopische Charakterisierung und Normalkoordinatenanalyse von (n‐Bu4N)2[M(ECN)4] (M = Pd,Pt; E = S,Se)

Crystal Structures, Spectroscopic Analysis, and Normal Coordinate Analysis of ( n ‐Bu₄N)₂[M(ECN)₄] (M = Pd, Pt; E = S, Se) The reaction of (NH₄)₂[PdCl₄] or K₂[PtCl₄] with KSCN or KSeCN in aqueous solutions yields the complex anions [Pd(SCN)₄]^2–, [Pt(SCN)₄]^2– and [Pt(SeCN)₄]^2–, which are converted into (n‐Bu₄N) salts with (n‐Bu₄N)HSO₄. (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pd(SeCN)₄] is formed by treatment of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[PdCl₄] with (n‐Bu₄N)SeCN in acetone. X‐ray structure determinations on single crystals of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pd(SCN)₄] (monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 13.088(3), b = 12.481(2), c = 13.574(3) Å, β = 91.494(15)°, Z = 2), (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pd(SeCN)₄] (monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 13.171(2), b = 12.644(2), c = 13.560(2) Å, β = 91.430(11)°, Z = 2) and (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(SeCN)₄] (monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 13.167(2), b = 12.641(1), c = 13.563(2) Å, β = 91.516(18)°, Z = 2) reveal, that the compounds crystallize isotypically and the complex anions are centrosymmetric and approximate planar. In the Raman spectra the metal ligand stretching modes of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pd(SCN)₄] ( 1 ) and (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(SCN)₄] ( 3 ) are observed in the range of 260–303 cm^–1 and of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pd(SeCN)₄] ( 2 ) and (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(SeCN)₄] ( 4 ) in the range of 171–195 cm^–1. The IR and Raman spectra are assigned by normal coordinate analysis using the molecular parameters of the X‐ray determination. The valence force constants are f_d(PdS) = 1.17, f_d(PdSe) = 1.17, f_d(PtS) = 1.44 and f_d(PtSe) = 1.42 mdyn/Å. The ⁷⁷Se NMR resonances are 23 for 2 , –3 for 4 and the ¹⁹⁵Pt NMR resonances 549 for 3 and 130 ppm for 4 .     

Darstellung,Kristallstruktur und Normalkoordinatenanalyse der bindungsisomeren Pentachlororhodanoosmate(IV)

Preparation, Crystal Structure and Normal Coordinate Analysis of Linkage Isomeric Pentachlororhodanoosmates(IV) By treatment of [OsCl₅I]^2? with (SCN)₂ in dichloromethane the linkage isomers [OsCl₅(NCS)]^2? and [OsCl₅(SCN)]^2? are formed which have been separated by ion exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose. The X-ray structure determination on single crystals of (Ph₄As)₂[OsCl₅(NCS)] (monoclinic, space group P2₁/a, a = 18.872(2), b = 11.6024(2), c = 22.786(1), β = 109.057(1)°, Z = 4) and (Ph₄As)₂[OsCl₅(SCN)] (monoclinic, space group P2₁/a, a = 19.057(2), b = 11.306(2), c = 22.612(1), β = 106.64(2)°, Z = 4) reveals the complete ordering of the complex anions. The thiocyanate group is located above one of the Cl ligands of the equatorial plane with the Os? N? C angle of 166.1° for N bonding and the Os? S? C angle of 109.9° for S bonding. The IR and Raman spectra of both linkage isomers known from literature are assigned by normal coordinate analysis based on the general valence force field using the molecular parameters of the X-ray determination. The valence force constants are f_d(OsN) = 1,81 and f_d(OsS) = 1,32 mdyn/Å. Taking into account increments of the trans influence a good adjustment between observed and calculated frequencies is achieved.
