(X = F, Cl, Br); Crystal Structure of Bis(triphenylphosphine)iminiumchloro-(phthalocyaninato)magnesate Acetone Solvate Magnesium phthalocyanine reacts with excess tetra(n-butyl)ammonium- or bis(triphenylphosphine)iminiumhalide ((ⁿBu₄N)X or (PNP)X; X = F, Cl, Br) yielding halophthalocyaninatomagnesate ([Mg(X)Pc^2?]^?; X = F, Cl, Br), which crystallizes in part as a scarcely soluble (ⁿBu₄N) or (PNP) complex-salt.

Darstellung und Eigenschaften der Phthalocyaninato(2–)metallate(I) von Cobalt,Rhodium und Iridium; Kristallstruktur von Tetra(n-butyl)ammoniumphthalocyaninato(2–)cobaltat(I)-Aceton-Solvat

Syntheses and Properties of Phthalocyaninato(2–)metallates(I) of Cobalt, Rhodium, and Iridium; Crystal Structure of Tetra(n-butyl)ammonium Phthalocyaninato(2–)cobaltate(I) Acetone Solvate Cobaltphthalocyaninate(2–) reacts with tetra(n-butyl)ammonium boranate in acetone yielding soluble tetra(n-butyl)ammonium phthalocyaninato(2–)cobaltate(I). The green platelets of its acetone solvate crystallize in the monoclinic space group P1 2₁/c (no. 14) with cell parameters: a = 12.370(1) Å, b = 23.370(3) Å, c = 15.952(8) Å, β = 93.55(2)°, Z = 4. The Co atom is located in the centre of the distorted phthalocyaninate (waving distortion). The average Co–N_iso distance is 1.894 Å. Dichlorophthalocyaninato(2–)metal(III) acid of rhodium and iridium reacts in boiling sodium isopropylate/isopropanol with tetra(n-butyl)ammonium boranate yielding violet tetra(n-butyl)ammonium phthalocyaninato(2–)rhodate(I) and -iridate(I). The UV-VIS-NIR spectra show normal π–π* transitions of the pc^2– ligand which are shifted in the series Co < Rh < Ir to higher energy. Absorbances (in 10³ cm^–1) at 18.2/19.4/21.4/23.6 (Co), 22.0/22.8/40.4 (Rh) and 25.6 (Ir) are assigned to M → pc^2– charge transfer transitions. The vibrational spectra are typical for the pc^2– ligand. The very low absorbance of the IR bands at 916/1067/1330 cm^–1 is diagnostic for low-valent metal phthalocyaninates.     

Phthalocyaninate und Tetraphenylporphyrinate von hochkoordiniertem ZrIV/HfIV mit Hydroxo‐, Chloro‐, (Di)Phenolato‐, (Hydrogen)Carbonato‐ sowie (Amino)Carboxylato‐Liganden

Phthalocyaninates and Tetraphenylporphyrinates of High Co‐ordinated Zr^IV/Hf^IV with Hydroxo, Chloro, (Di)Phenolato, (Hydrogen)Carbonato, and (Amino)Carboxylato Ligands Crystals of tetra(n‐butyl)ammonium cis‐tri(phenolato)phthalocyaninato(2‐)zirconate(IV) ( 2 ) and ‐hafnate(IV) ( 1 ), di(tetra(n‐butyl)ammonium) cis‐di(tetrachlorocatecholato(O, O')phthalocyaninato(2‐)zirconate(IV) ( 3 ), and cis‐(di(μ‐alaninato(O, O')di(μ‐hydroxo))di(phthalocyaninato(2‐)zirconium(IV)) ( 12 ) have been isolated from tetra(n‐butyl)ammonium hydroxide solutions of cis‐di(chloro)phthalocyaninato(2‐)zirconium(IV) and ‐hafnium(IV), respectively, and the corresponding acid in polar organic solvents. Similarly, with cis‐di(chloro)tetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconium(IV), ^cis[Zr(Cl)₂tpp] as precursor crystalline tetra(n‐butyl)ammoniumcis‐tetrachlorocatecholato(O, O')hydrogentetrachlorocatecholato(O)tetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconate(IV) ( 4 ), cis‐hydrogencarbonato(O, O')phenolatotetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconium(IV) ( 6 ), cis‐di(benzoato(O, O'))tetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconium(IV) ( 11 ), and cis‐tetra(μ‐hydroxo)di(tetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconium(IV)) ( 13 ) with a cis‐arrangement of the symmetry equivalent μ‐hydroxo ligands, and from di(acetato)tetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconium(IV) the corresponding trans‐isomer ( 14 ) have been prepared. The endothermic dehydration at 215 °C of 13/14 yields μ‐oxodi(μ‐hydroxo)di(tetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconium(IV)) ( 15 ). 15 also precipitates on dilution of a solution of ^cis[Zr(X)₂tpp] (X = Cl, OAc) in dmf/(ⁿBu₄N)OH with water, while on prolonged standing of this solution on air tri(tetra(n‐butyl)ammonium) cis‐(^nido〈di(carbonato(O, O'))undecaaquamethoxide〉tetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconate(IV) ( 7 ) crystallizes, in which Zr^IV coordinates a supramolecular nestlike ^nido〈(O₂CO)₂(H₂O)₁₁OCH₃〉^5— cluster anion stabilised by hydrogen bonding in a nanocage of surrounding (ⁿBu₄N)⁺ cations. On the other hand, ^cis[Zr(Cl)₂pc] forms with (Et₄N)₂CO₃ in dichloromethane di(tetraethylammonium) cis‐di(carbonato(O, O')phthalocyaninato(2‐)zirconate(IV) ( 5 ). ^cis[Zr(Cl)₂tpp] dissolves in various O‐donor solvents, from which cis‐di(chloro)dimethylformamidetetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconium(IV) ( 8 ), cis‐di(chloro)dimethylsulfoxidetetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconium(IV) ( 9 ), and a 1:1 mixture ( 10 ) of cis‐di(chloro)dimethylsulfoxidetetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconium(IV) ( 10a ) and cis‐chlorodi(dimethylsulfoxide)tetraphenylporphyrinato(2‐)zirconium(IV) chloride ( 10b ) crystallize. All complexes contain solvate molecules in the solid state, except 3 . Zr^IV/Hf^IV is directed by ∼1Å out of the plane of the tetrapyrrolic ligand (pc, tpp) towards the mutually cis‐coordinated axial ligands. In the more concavely distorted phthalocyaninates, Zr^IV is mainly eight‐coordinated and in the tetraphenylporphyrinates seven‐coordinated. The octa‐coordinated Zr atom is in a distorted quadratic antiprism, and the hepta‐coordinated one is in a square‐base‐trigonal‐cap cooordination polyhedron. In most tpp complexes, the Zr atom is displaced by up to 0.3Å out of the centre of the coordination polyhedron towards the tetrapyrrolic ligand. In 13/14 , both antiprisms are face shared by an O₄ plane, and in 12 they are shared by an O₂ edge and the O atoms of the bridging aminocarboxylates, the dihedral angle between the O₄ planes of both antiprisms being 50.1(1)°. The mean Zr‐N_p distance is 0.05Å longer in the pc complexes than in the tpp complexes (d(Zr‐N_p)_pc = 2.31Å). In the monophenolato complexes, the mean Zr‐O distance (∼2.00Å) is shorter than in the complexes with other O‐donor ligands (d(Zr‐O)_pc = 2.18Å; d(Zr‐O)_tpp = 2.21Å); the Zr‐Cl distances vary between 2.473(1) and 2.559(2)Å (d(Zr‐Cl)_tpp = 2.51Å). d(C‐O_exo) = 1.494(4)Å in the bidentate hydrogencarbonato ligand in 6 is 0.26Å longer than in the bidentate carbonato ligands in 5 and 7 . 9 and 10a are rotamers slightly differing by the orientation of the axial ligands with respect to the tpp ligand. In 1—4, 6 , and 11 the phenolato, catecholato, and benzoato ligands, respectively, are in syn‐ and/or anti‐conformations with respect to the plane of the macrocycle. π‐Dimers with modest overlap of the neighbouring macrocyclic rings are observed in 5, 6, 8, 9, 10b, 12 , and 14 . The common UV/Vis spectroscopical and vibrational properties of the new phthalocyaninates and tetraphenylporphyrinates scarcely reflect their rich structural diversity.     

ZrIV‐ und TaV‐Komplexe mit methanoverbrückten Bis(aryloxy)‐Liganden

Zr^IV and Ta^V Complexes with Methano‐Bridged Bis(aryloxy) Ligands The bis(aryloxy) ligand precursor compounds bis(2‐trimethylsiloxy‐5‐tbutylphenyl)methane (L–SiMe₃) and its bromoderivative (2‐trimethylsiloxy‐3‐bromo‐5‐tbutylphenyl)(2′‐trimethylsiloxy‐5′‐tbutylphenyl)methane (L^Br–SiMe₃) are prepared in analogy to the corresponding calixarenes in excellent yields. X‐ray structure analysis for L^Br–SiMe₃: space group P2₁/c, a = 12.462(7), b = 10.466(6), c = 23.315(14) Å, β = 105.02(4)°, V = 2937(3) ų, Z = 4. L–SiMe₃ and L^Br–SiMe₃ react with Zr^IV and Ta^V chlorides in very good yields forming di‐ and trinuclear complexes. From the reaction of CpZrCl₃ with L^Br–SiMe₃ in the ratio of 3 : 2 a Zr₃ complex ( 7 ) is obtained, with one L^Br ligand only, which Zr atoms are bridged by a μ₃‐oxygen. The X‐ray structure analysis of 7 (space group R 3, a = 33.23(6), c = 24.47(8) Å, V = 23405(128) ų, Z = 18) additionally reveals that one phenolato oxygen atom of the L^Br ligand is terminally bound to a distorted tetragonal‐pyramidal coordinated Zr atom, while the second phenolato oxygen atom of the L^Br ligand forms a bridge to another Zr atom with a distorted octahedral coordination. The third Zr atom is also found in a distorted octahedral coordination mode. The reactions of L–SiMe₃ and L^Br–SiMe₃ with CpTaCl₄ and TaCl₅ yield dinuclear Ta complexes with a bridging bis(aryloxy) ligand. NMR spectroscopic data point out that the coordination of the bis(aryloxy) ligands in the Ta complexes very much resembles that in the Zr₃‐complex with one terminal and one bridging phenolato oxygen atom. The Zr₃ and the Ta complexes L^BrTa₂Cp₂Cl₆ and LTa₂Cl₈ were tested with respect to their catalytic properties in olefin polymerisation reactions in the presence of MAO.     

Darstellung und Eigenschaften von trans-Di(fluoro)phthalocyaninato(2–)-rhenat(III); Kristallstruktur des linear-Bis(triphenylphosphin)iminium-Doppelsalzes l(PNP)trans[Re(F)2pc2–] · 0,33l(PNP)F · 2 H2O

Synthesis and Properties of trans -Di(fluoro)phthalocyaninatorhenate(III); Crystal Structure of the linear -Bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium Double Salt ^l (PNP) ^trans[Re(F)₂pc^2–] · 0.33^l (PNP)F · 2 H₂O trans-Bis(triphenylphosphine)phthalocyaninato(2–)rhenium(II) reacts with (ⁿBu₄N)F · 3 H₂O in acetone on air yielding trans-di(fluoro)phthalocyaninato(2–)rhenate(III), ^trans[Re(F)₂pc^2–]^–. The complex anion is precipitated as tetra(n-butyl)ammonium (ⁿBu₄N), or after addition of (PNP)HSO₄ as linear-bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium (^l(PNP)) salt. The latter crystallizes as a double salt of formula ^l(PNP)^trans[Re(F)₂pc^2–] · 0.33^l(PNP)F · 2 H₂O in the cubic space group I23 (no. 197) with the cell parameter a = 21.836(2) Å; V = 10412(2) ų; Z = 6. The Re atom is located in the centre of the (N_iso)₄ plane (N_iso: isoindole-N atom) and coordinates axially two fluorine atoms in a mutual trans position. The Re–N and Re–F distance is 2.035(6) and 1.798(7) Å, respectively. According to the short Re–F distance the asymmetric Re–F stretching vibration is observed in the MIR spectrum at 746 cm^–1. Obviously due to a large spin-orbit coupling, the complex salt with an electronic low-spin d⁴ ground state of Re^III (S = 1) is diamagnetic. Hence a sharp signal is observed at –126.1 ppm in the ¹⁹F NMR spectrum. The UV-VIS-NIR spectrum shows the typical π-π* transitions at 15000 (B), 29500 (Q) and 36900 cm^–1 (N) and trip-multiplet transitions at 9500/10500 cm^–1 and 13200/14100 cm^–1.     

Oxidative Addition of Diphenyl Disulfide/Thiophenol to [Mn(CO)5]−: Crystal Structure of cis-[Mn(CO)4(SPh)2]−

Oxidative addition of diphenyl disulfide to the coordinatively unsaturated [Mn(CO)₅]^? led to the formation of low-spin, six-coordinate cis-[Mn(CO)₄(SPh)₂]^?. The complex cis-[PPN][Mn(CO)₄(SPh)₂] crystallized in monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 9.965(2) Å, b = 24.604(5) Å, c = 19.291(4) Å, β = 100.05(2)°, V = 4657(2)ų, and Z = 4; final R = 0.036 and R_w = 0.039. Thermal transformation of cis-[Mn(CO)₄(SPh)₂]^? to [(CO)₃Mn(μ-SPh)₃Mn(CO)₃]^? was completed overnight in THF at room temperature. Additionally, reaction of [Mn(CO)₅]^? and PhSH in 1:2 mole ratio also led to cis-[PPN](Mn(CO)₄(SPh)₂]. Presumably, oxidative addition of PhSH to [Mn(CO)₄]^? was followed by a Lewis acid-base reaction to form cis-[Mn(CO)₄(SPh)₂]^? with evolution of H₂.     

Darstellung und Eigenschaften von (Acido)(pyridin)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenaten(II); Kristallstruktur von Tetra(n-butyl)ammonium(cyano)(pyridin)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenat(II)

Syntheses and Properties of (Acido)(pyridine)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenates(II); Crystal Structure of Tetra(n-butyl)ammonium (Cyano)(pyridine)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenate(II) Bis(tetra(n-butyl)ammonium bis(acido)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenate(II) reacts in boiling pyridine to yield blue purple, diamagnetic tetra(n-butyl)ammonium (acido)(pyridine)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenate(II), (ⁿBu₄N)[Ru(X)(py)pc^2–] (X = CN, N₃, NCS, NCO, NO₂). (ⁿBu₄N)[Ru(CN)(py)pc^2–] crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pca2₁ (no. 29) with cell parameters a = 28.319(5) Å, b = 29.850(3) Å, c = 24.566(7) Å, Z = 16, with four crystallographically independent complex anions present in the unit cell. Each Ru atom is located outside the centre (Ct) of the corresponding (N_iso)₄ plane (N_iso: isoindoline N atom) and coordinates axially pyridine and cyanide in a mutual trans position. The largest vertical displacement of the Ru atom from the (N_iso)₄ plane towards cyanide (d(Ru–Ct)) is 0.020 Å. The Ru–N_iso distance varies from 1.947(2) to 1.992(2) Å. The average Ru–C and Ru–N_py distance is 2.00 Å and 2.19 Å, respectively. The pc^2– ligand ist slightly distorted towards the cyanide. The cyclic and differential pulse voltammograms of (ⁿBu₄N)[Ru(X)(py)pc^2–] exhibit the first quasi-reversible one electron process (in V) at 0.46 (X = CN), 0.34 (N₃), 0.40 (NCO), 0.47 (NO₂), 0.50 V (NCS) and the second, independent of X, at approximately 1.05 V. The first process is metal directed, the second ring directed. The electronic absorption spectra and the vibrational spectra of (ⁿBu₄N)[Ru(X)(py)pc^2–] are discussed.     

Dihalodimethyltin(IV) complexes of 2‐(pyrazol‐1‐ylmethyl)pyridine

Reaction of dichloro‐ and dibromodimethyltin(IV) with 2‐(pyrazol‐1‐ylmethyl)pyridine (PMP) afforded [SnMe₂Cl₂(PMP)] and [SnMe₂Br₂(PMP)] respectively. The new complexes were characterized by elemental analysis and mass spectrometry and by IR, Raman and NMR (¹H, ¹³C) spectroscopies. Structural studies by X‐ray diffraction techniques show that the compounds consist of discrete units with the tin atom octahedrally coordinated to the carbon atoms of the two methyl groups in a trans disposition (Sn? C = 2.097(5), 2.120(5) Å and 2.110(6), 2.121(6) Å in the chloro and in the bromo compounds respectively), two cis halogen atoms (Sn? Cl = 2.4908(16), 2.5447(17) Å; Sn? Br = 2.6875(11), 2.7464(9) Å) and the two donor atoms of the ligand (Sn? N = 2.407(4), 2.471(4) Å and 2.360(5), 2.455(5) Å). In both cases, the Sn? N(pyridine) bond length is markedly longer than the Sn? N(pyrazole) distance. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A polymeric V^IV‐Cd compound, {(NH₄)₂[(V^IVO)₂(μ₂‐O)(nta)₂Cd(H₂O)₂]·H₂O}_n (H₃nta = nitrilotriacetic acid), has been prepared and characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with a = 17.3760(2) Å, b = 8.0488(1) Å, c = 17.3380(2) Å, β = 107.9690(10)°, V = 2306.55(5) ų, Z = 4, and R₁ = 0.0303 for 1958 observed reflections. The structure exhibits a heterometallic three‐dimensional network formed by polymeric [(V^IVO)₂(μ₂‐O)(nta)₂Cd(H₂O)₂]^2? anions.     

Disordering of the [NbOF5]2− complex anions in bis(glycinium) pentafluoridooxidoniobate(V) and bis(β‐alaninium) pentafluoridooxidoniobate(V) dihydrate

The title compounds, (C₂H₆NO₂)₂[NbOF₅], (I), and (C₃H₈NO₂)₂[NbOF₅]·2H₂O, (II), are built from isolated distorted octahedral [NbOF₅]²⁻ complex anions, amino acid cations and water molecules [for (II)]. In the pentafluoridooxidoniobate(V) anions, the Nb and O atoms, and the F atoms in trans positions with respect to the O atoms, are disordered about an inversion centre for both structures. The Nb atoms are shifted from the inversion centres by distances of 0.1455 (1) and 0.1263 (2) Å for (I) and (II), respectively. The Nb=O and Nb—F(trans) bond lengths are 1.7952 (3) and 2.0862 (3) Å, respectively, for (I), and 1.8037 (7) and 2.0556 (7) Å for (II). In the crystal structures, cations and water molecules [for (II)] are linked to the [NbOF₅]²⁻ anions via hydrogen bonds. This study demonstrates the possibility of true geometry determination of disordered [NbOF₅]²⁻ complex anions in centrosymmetric structures.     

C–H-Aktivierung: Synthese und Eigenschaften von Acetonato(C)acidophthalocyaninato(2–)metallaten(III) von Rhodium und Iridium; Kristallstruktur von Tetra(n-butyl)ammoniumacetonato(C)-azidophthalocyaninato(2–)iridat(III)

C–H-Activation: Syntheses and Properties of Acetonato( C )-acidophthalocyaninato(2–)metallates(III) of Rhodium and Iridium; Crystal Structure of Tetra(n-butyl)ammonium Acetonato( C )azidophthalocyaninato(2–)iridate(III) Phthalocyaninato(2–)metallate(I) of rhodium and iridium reacts with carbonyl substrates like acetone or acetylacetone and halides or pseudohalides forming acetonato(C)- or acetylacetonato(C)acidophthalocyaninato(2–)metallates(III), that are isolated as tetra(n-butyl)ammonium complex salts (ⁿBu₄N)[M(R)(X)pc^2–] (M = Rh, Ir; R = aC, acaC; X = Cl, I, N₃, SCN/NCS). (ⁿBu₄N)[Ir(aC)(N₃)pc^2–] · 0,25(C₂H₅)₂O · 0,5 CH₂Cl₂ crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with cell parameters a = 16.267(8) Å, b = 17.938(3) Å, c = 18.335(4) Å, α = 74.77(2)°, β = 73.73(3)°, γ = 84.25(3)°, V = 4954(3) ų, Z = 4. There are two crystallographically independent anions, differing by the orientation of the azido ligand either towards an isoindole group or a N_aza bridge of the phthalocyaninate, while the σ-C bonded acetonate is always oriented towards an isoindole group (gauche and ecliptical configuration). The Ir–C distances are 2.12(1) and 2.14(1) Å. Due to the trans influence of the acetonate-C atom the Ir-azide-N distances of 2.22(1)/2.24(1) Å are longer than expected. The electrochemical properties and the optical, vibrational, and ¹H-NMR spectra are discussed.     

Tetra(n-butyl)ammoniumphthalocyaninato(2–)lithat-Tetrahydrofuran und Bis(tetra(n-butyl)ammonium)phthalocyaninato(2–)lithatfluorid-Hydrat; Synthese und Kristallstruktur

Tetra(n-butyl)ammonium Phthalocyaninato(2–)lithate Tetrahydrofurane and Bis(tetra(n-butyl)ammonium) Phthalocyaninato(2–)lithate Fluoride Hydrate; Synthesis and Crystal Structure Dilithiumphthalocyaninate(2–) reacts with excess tetra(n-butyl)ammonium fluoride trihydrate to yield a mixture of blue tetra(n-butyl)ammonium phthalocyaninato(2–)lithate tetrahydrofurane and bis(tetra(n-butyl)ammonium) phthalocyaninato(2–)lithate fluoride hydrate. The latter crystallizes triclinic with crystal data: a = 8.6480(1) Å; b = 12.620(2) Å; c = 14.866(5) Å; α = 82.44(2)°; β = 87.01(2)°; γ = 75.02°; space group P1 ; Z = 1. Fluoride is not coordinated to lithium. On the contrary, a double-salt is formed, which consists of alternating layers of cations and anions. This arrangement opens a cavity in the centre of the unit cell which shares statistically a fluoride and a disordered fluoride hydrate. Pure tetra(n-butyl)ammonium phthalocyaninato(2–)lithate is obtained as a tetrahydrofurane solvate by the reaction of dilithiumphthalocyaninate(2–) with tetra(n-butyl)ammonium bromide in tetrahydrofurane. The solvate crystallizes monoclinic with crystal data: a = 12.455(5) Å; b = 23.396(5) Å; c = 16.120(5) Å; β = 94.986(5)°; space group P2/c1; Z = 4.     

Compounds with Cluster Cations together with Cluster Anions [(M6X12)(EtOH)6]2+ besides [(Mo6Cl8)Cl4X2]2– (M = Nb,Ta; X = Cl,Br) – Synthesis and Crystal Structures

Compounds consisting of both cluster cations and cluster anions of the composition [(M₆X₁₂)(EtOH)₆][(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₄X₂] · n EtOH · m Et₂O (M = Nb, Ta; X = Cl, Br) have been prepared by the reaction of (M₆X₁₂)X₂ · 6 EtOH with (Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₄. IR data are given for three compounds. The structures of [(Nb₆Cl₁₂)(EtOH)₆][(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₆] · 3 EtOH · 3 Et₂O 1 and [(Ta₆Cl₁₂)(EtOH)₆][(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₆] · 6 EtOH 2 have been solved in the triclinic space group P1 (No. 2). Crystal data: 1 , a = 10.641(2) Å, b = 13.947(2) Å, c = 15.460(3) Å, α = 65.71(2)°, β = 73.61(2)°, γ = 85.11(2)°, V = 2005.1(8) ų and Z = 1; 2 , a = 11.218(2) Å, b = 12.723(3) Å, c = 14.134(3) Å, α = 108.06(2)°, β = 101.13(2)°, γ = 91.18(2)°, V = 1874.8(7) ų and Z = 1. Both structures are built of octahedral [(M₆Cl₁₂)(EtOH)₆]²⁺ cluster cations and [(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₆]^2– cluster anions, forming distorted CsCl structure types. The Nb–Nb and Ta–Ta bond lengths of 2.904 Å and 2.872 Å (mean values), respectively, are rather short, indicating weak M–O bonds. All O atoms of coordinated EtOH molecules are involved in H bridges. The Mo–Mo distances of 2.603 Å and 2.609 Å (on average) are characteristic for the [(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₆]^2– anion, but there is a clear correlation between the number of hydrogen bridges to the terminal Cl and the corresponding Mo–Cl distances.
