Contributions on Crystal Chemistry and Thermal Behaviour of Anhydrous Phosphates. XXXII. New Orthophosphates of Divalent Chromium — Mg₃Cr₃(PO₄)₄, Mg_{3, 75}Cr_{2, 25}(PO₄)₄, Ca₃Cr₃(PO₄)₄ and Ca_{2, 00}Cr_{4, 00}(PO₄)₄ Solid state reactions via the gas phase led in the systems A₃(PO₄)₂ / Cr₃(PO₄)₂ (A = Mg, Ca) to the four new compounds Mg₃Cr₃(PO₄)₄ ( A ), Mg_3.75Cr_2.25(PO₄)₄ ( B ), Ca₃Cr₃(PO₄)₄ ( C ), and Ca_2.00Cr_4.00(PO₄)₄ ( D ). These were characterized by single crystal structure investigations [( A ): P2₁/n, Z = 1, a = 4.863(2) Å, b = 9.507(4) Å, c = 6.439(2) Å, β = 91.13(6)°, 1855 independend reflections, 63 parameters, R1 = 0.035, wR2 = 0.083; ( B ): P2₁/a, Z = 2, a = 6.427(2) Å, b = 9.363(2) Å, c = 10.051(3) Å, β = 106.16(3)°, 1687 indep. refl., 121 param., R1 = 0.032, wR2 = 0.085; ( C ): P‐1, Z = 2, a = 8.961(1) Å, b = 8.994(1) Å, c = 9.881(1) Å, α = 104.96(2)°, β = 106.03(2)°, γ = 110.19(2)°, 2908 indep. refl., 235 param., R1 = 0.036, wR2 = 0.111; ( D ): C2/c, Z = 4, a = 17.511(2) Å, b = 4.9933(6) Å, c = 16.825(2) Å, β = 117.95(1)°, 1506 indep. refl., 121 param., R1 = 0.034, wR2 = 0.098]. The crystal structures contain divalent chromium on various crystallographic sites, each showing a (4+n)‐coordination (n = 1, 2, 3). For the magnesium compounds and Ca_2.00Cr_4.00(PO₄)₄ a disorder of the divalent cations Mg²⁺/Cr²⁺ or Ca²⁺/Cr²⁺ is observed. Mg_3.75Cr_2.25(PO₄)₄ adopts a new structure type, while Mg₃Cr₃(PO₄)₄ is isotypic to Mg₃(PO₄)₂. Ca₃Cr₃(PO₄)₄ and Ca_2.00Cr_4.00(PO₄) ₄ are structurally very closely related and belong to the Ca₃Cu₃(PO₄)₄‐structure family. The orthophosphate Ca₉Cr(PO₄)₇, containing trivalent chromium, has been obtained besides C and D .

The chloro‐derivatives [Fe₂Cl₂(OtBu)₄] ( 2 ), and [Fe₂Cl₄(OtBu)₂] ( 3 ) could be synthesized by ligand exchange between 1 and iron(III)chloride. Each of the molecules 1 , 2 , and 3 consists of two edge‐sharing tetrahedrons, with two tert‐butoxo‐groups as μ₂‐bridging ligands. For the synthesis of the alkoxides 1 , 2 , and 3 diethylether plays an important role. In the first step the dietherate of iron(III)chloride FeCl₃(OEt₂)₂ ( 4 ) is formed. The reaction of iron(III)chloride with tetrabutylammonium methoxide in methanol results in the formation of a tetrabutylammonium methoxo‐chloro‐oxo‐hexairon cluster [N(nBu)₄]₂[Fe₆OCl₆(OMe)₁₂] ( 5 ).

A new chromium thiophosphate, K₃Cr₂(PS₄)₃ has been prepared and characterized by single‐crystal diffraction, temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements and optical spectroscopy. K₃Cr₂(PS₄)₃ crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n (No. 14) with a = 9.731(2) Å, b = 11.986(2) Å, c = 17.727(4) Å, β = 96.52(2)°, V = 2054.2(2) ų, Z = 4, and R = 0.044.

A Pyrophosphate Containing Di- and Trivalent Chromium Cr₆(P₂O₇)₄ (Cr₂²⁺Cr₄³⁺(P₂O₇)₄) can be obtained reducing CrPO₄ by phosphorus (950°C, 48 h, 100 mg iodine as mineralizer). By means of chemical transport reactions (transport agent iodine; 1050 → 950°C) the compound has been separated from its neighbour phases (Cr₂P₂O₇, CrP₃O₉) and crystallized (greenish, transparent crystals; edge length up to 0.3 mm). The crystal structure of Cr₆(P₂O₇)₄ (Spcgrp.: P-1; z = 1; a = 4.7128(8) Å, b = 12.667(3) Å, c = 7.843(2) Å, α = 89.65(2)°, β = 92.02(2)°, γ = 90.37(2) has been solved and refined from single crystal data (2713 unique reflections, 194 parameter, R = 0.035). Cr²⁺ is surrounded by six oxygen atoms which occupy the corners of an elongated octahedron (4 × d^{Cr? O} ≈? 2.04 Å; 2 × d^{Cr? O} ≈? 2.62 Å). The Cr³⁺ ions are also coordinated octahedraly (1.930 Å ≤ d_{Cr? O} ≤ 2.061 Å). The crystallographically independent pyrophosphate groups show nearly eclipsed conformation. The bridging angles (P? O? P) are 136.5° and 138.9° respectively.

X‐Ray diffraction analysis revealed that 1 possesses a two‐dimensional wave‐like structure, formed from a zigzag one‐dimensional chain, and 2 is a three‐dimensional network structure formed from a one‐dimensional chain and a pz bridging ligand. The temperature‐dependent magnetic behavior of 1 was studied.

Darstellung,Kristallstrukturen und Eigenschaften der Chrom(II)-phosphat-halogenide Cr2(PO4)Br und Cr2(PO4)I

Synthesis, Crystal Structures, and Properties of the Chromium(II) Phosphate Halides Cr₂(PO₄)Br and Cr₂(PO₄)I The new compounds Cr₂(PO₄)Br and Cr₂(PO₄)I have been obtained by reaction of CrPO₄, Cr and Br₂ or I₂ in evacuated silica tubes at elevated temperatures (Cr₂(PO₄)Br: 900 °C, Cr₂(PO₄)I: 700 °C). Single crystals of deep blue Cr₂(PO₄)Br and turquoise Cr₂(PO₄)I with edge-lengths up to 2 mm and 0.3 mm, respectively, have been grown in experiments involving the gaseous phase. Single crystal data have been used for structure determination and refinement. Though being not isotypic, the two crystal structures are closely related. Two crystallographically independent Cr²⁺, in polyhedra [Cr1O₃X₃] and [Cr2O₅X], form dimers [Cr1₂O₂O_2/2X₄] and [Cr2₂O₈X₂]. Distances are 1.978 Å ≤ d(Cr–O) ≤ 2.096 Å (for the iodide: 1.959 Å ≤ d(Cr–O) ≤ 2.105 Å), 2.587 Å ≤ d(Cr–Br) ≤ 3.158 Å and 2.867 Å ≤ d(Cr–I) ≤ 3.327 Å. The structures of bromide and iodide can be distinguished by the different way of connection of the Cr1 containing dimers. The phosphate group shows slightly distorted tetrahedral geometry with 1.491 Å ≤ d(P–O) ≤ 1.559 Å (1.486 Å ≤ d(P–O) ≤ 1.567 Å) and angles of 106.48° ≤ ∠(O–P–O) ≤ 111.69° (106.57° ≤ ∠(O–P–O) ≤ 111.72°. IR-spectra of Cr₂(PO₄)Br and Cr₂(PO₄)I, the Raman-spectrum of Cr₂(PO₄)Br and electronic spectra of the two compounds in the UV/vis region at low temperature are reported and discussed.

Syntheses and crystal structures of two cadmium coordination polymers [Cd(2-mBIM)(NCS)(SCN)] n and [Cd2(2-mBIM)2(NO3)2(C4H4O4)(H2O)5] n based on bis(2-methylimidazol-1-yl)methane

Two cadmium(II) coordination polymers, [Cd(2-mBIM)(NCS)(SCN)] _n (1) and [Cd₂(2-mBIM)₂(NO₃)₂(C₄H₄O₄)(H₂O)₅] _n (2) (2-mBIM = bis(2-methylimidazo-1-yl)methane, C₄H₄O₄= succinate), have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P 1 with a = 9.0770(5) Å, b = 9.4043(4) Å, c = 19.8720(9) Å, α = 101.551(1)°, β = 93.498(1)°, γ = 108.484(1)°, V = 1562.02(13) ų, and Z = 2. Each Cd(II) is octahedrally coordinated and connected with two adjacent Cd(II)'s by double end-to-end thiocyanate bridges, resulting in the formation of 1-D zigzag chains, linked to each other via bridging 2-mBIM giving a 2-D supramolecular framework. Complex 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/n with a = 12.6543(6) Å, b = 7.7128(4) Å, c = 17.3089(9) Å, β = 109.3980(10)°, V = 1593.45(14) ų, and Z = 2. Cd(II) is coordinated with oxygen and nitrogens from two independent 2-mBIM, in a cis-configuration to form a 1-D helical structure. A 3-D supramolecular network comprised of succinate anion bridged 1-D helical chains, and weak hydrogen bonds between dimer waters gave 2-D layers.

Beiträge zur Kristallchemie und zum thermischen Verhalten von wasserfreien Phosphaten. XXXIII [1] In2P2O7, ein Indium(I)‐diphosphato‐indat(III) und In4(P2O7)3 — Darstellung,Kristallisation und Kristallstrukturen

Contributions on Crystal Chemistry and Thermal Behaviour of Anhydrous Phosphates. XXXIII [1] In₂P₂O₇ an Indium(I)‐diphosphatoindate(III), and In₄(P₂O₇)₃ — Synthesis, Crystallization, and Crystal Structure Solid state reactions via the gas phase lead to the new mixed‐valence indium(I, III)‐diphosphate In₂P₂O₇. Colourless single crystals of In₂P₂O₇ have been grown by isothermal heating of stoichiometric amounts of InPO₄ and InP (800 °C; 7d) using iodine as mineralizer. The structure of In₂P₂O₇ [P2₁/c, a = 7.550(1) Å, b = 10.412(1) Å, c = 8.461(2) Å, b = 105.82(1)°, 2813 independent reflections, 101 parameter, R1 = 0.031, wR2 = 0.078] is the first example for an In⁺ cation in pure oxygen coordination. Observed distances d(In^I‐O) are exceptionally long (d_min(In^I‐O) = 2.82 Å) and support assumption of mainly s‐character for the lone‐pair at the In⁺ ion. Single crystals of In₄(P₂O₇)₃ were grown by chemical vapour transport experiments in a temperature gradient (1000 → 900 °C) using P/I mixtures as transport agent. In contrast to the isostructural diphosphates M₄(P₂O₇)₃ (M = V, Cr, Fe) monoclinic instead of orthorhombic symmetry has been found for In₄(P₂O₇)₃ [P2₁/a, a = 13.248(3) Å, b = 9.758(1) Å, c = 13.442(2) Å, b = 108.94(1)°, 7221 independent reflexes, 281 parameter, R1 = 0.027, wR2 = 0.067].
