Chalcogenoniobates as Reagents for the Synthesis of New Heterobimetallic Niobium Coinage Metal Chalcogenide Clusters In the presence of phosphine chalcogenoniobates such as Li₃[NbS₄] · 4 CH₃CN ( I ), (NEt₄)₄[Nb₆S₁₇] · 3 CH₃CN ( II ) and (NEt₄)₂[NbE′₃(E^tBu)] ( III a : E′ = E = S; III b : E = Se, E′ = S; III c : E = E′ = Se) respectively react with copper and gold salts to give a number of new heterobimetallic niobium copper(gold) chalcogenide clusters. These clusters show metal chalcogenide units already known from the complex chemistry of the tetrachalcogenometalates [ME₄]^n– (M = V, n = 3, E = S; M = Mo, W, n = 2, E = S, Se). The compounds 1 – 8 owe a central tetrahedral [NbE₄] structural unit, which coordinates η² from two to five coinage metal atoms, employing the chalcogenide atoms of the [NbE₄] edges. The compounds 9 – 11 have a [M′₂Nb₂E₄] (M′ = Cu, Au) heterocubane unit in common, involving a metal metal bond between the niobium atoms, while the compounds 12 and 13 show a complete and 14 an incomplete [M′₃NbE₃X] heterocubane structure (X = Cl, Br). 15 consists of a Cu₆Nb₂ cube with the six planes capped by μ₄ bridging selenide ligands forming an octahedra. The compounds 1 – 15 are listed below: (NEt₄) [Cu₂NbSe₂S₂(dppe)₂] · 2 DMF ( 1 ), [Cu₃NbS₄(PPh₃)₄] ( 2 ), [Au₃NbSe₄(PPh₃)₄] · Et₂O ( 3 ), [Cu₄NbS₄Cl(PCy₃)₄] ( 4 ), [Cu₄NbS₄Cl(P^tBu₃)₄] · 0,5 DMF ( 5 ), [Cu₄NbSe₄(NCS)(P^tBu₃)₄] · DMF ( 6 ), [Cu₄NbS₄(NCS)(dppm)₄] · Et₂O ( 7 ), [Cu₅NbSe₄Cl₂‐ (dppm)₄] · 3 DMF ( 8 ), [Cu₂Nb₂S₄Cl₂(PMe₃)₆] · DMF ( 9 ), [Au₂Nb₂Se₄Cl₂(PMe₃)₆] · DMF ( 10 ), (NEt₄)₂[Cu₃Nb₂S₄(NCS)₅(dppm)₂(dmf)] · 4 DMF ( 11 ), [Cu₃NbS₃Br(PPh₃)₃(dmf)₃]Br · [CuBr(PPh₃)₃] · PPh₃ · OPPh₃ · 3 DMF ( 12 ), [Cu₃NbS₃Cl₂(PPh₃)₃(dmf)₂] · 1.5 DMF ( 13 ), (NEt₄)[Cu₃NbSe₃Cl₃(dmf)₃] ( 14 ), [Cu₆Nb₂Se₆O₂(PMe₃)₆] ( 15 ). The structures of these compounds were obtained by X‐ray single crystal structure analysis.

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Novel Chalcogenido‐bridged Niobium Copper Clusters In the presence of tertiary phosphines, the reaction of NbCl₅ and Copper(I) salts with Se(SiMe₃)₂ (E = S, Se) affords the new chalcogenido‐bridged niobium‐copper cluster compounds ( 1 ) and [NbCu₄Se₄Cl (PPh₃)₄] ( 2 ). Using E(R)SiMe₃ (E = S, Se, R = Ph, ⁿPr) instead of the bisilylated selenium species leads to the compounds [NbCu₂(SPh)₆(PMe₃)₂] ( 3 ), [NbCu₂(SPh)₆(PⁿPr₃)₂] ( 4 ), [NbCu₂(SePh)₆(PMe₃)₂] ( 5 ), [NbCu₂(SePh)₆(PⁿPr₃)₂] ( 6 ), [NbCu₂(SePh)₆(PⁱPr₃)₂] ( 7 ), [NbCu₂(SePh)₆(P^tBu₃)₂] ( 8 ), [NbCu₂(SePh)₆(PⁱPr₂Me)₂] ( 9 ), [NbCu₂(SePh)₆(PPhEt₂)₂] ( 10 ), [Nb₂Cu₂(SⁿPr)₈(PⁿPr₃)₂Cl₂] ( 11 ) and [Nb₂Cu₆(SⁿPr)₁₂(PⁱPr₃)₂Cl₄]·2 CH₃CN ( 12 ·2 CH₃CN).

If [Fe(CO)₄(HgX)₂] reacts with P(SiMe₃)₂^tBu the polymeric polynuclear complex [Hg₁₅{Fe(CO)₄}₃(P^tBu)₈Br₈]n ( 3 ) as well as the twenty mercury‐ and eight iron‐atoms containing [Hg₂₀{Fe(CO)₄}₈(P^tBu)₁₀X₄]‐clusters (X = Br, Cl) ( 4 , 5 ) are formed.

Neue Kupfertellurid‐Cluster – Synthesen,Kristallstrukturen und optische Spektren

New Coppertelluride Clusters – Syntheses, Crystal Structures, and Optical Spectra Reactions of copper(I) acetate with Te(SiMe₃)₂ lead in the presence of tertiary phophines PR₃ (R = organic group) to the formation of new coppertelluride clusters: [Cu₈Te₄(PPh₃)₇] ( 1 ), [Cu₁₆Te₉(PPh₃)₈] ( 2 ), [Cu₂₃Te₁₃(PPh₃)₁₀] ( 3 ), [Cu₄₄Te₂₃(PPh₃)₁₅] ( 4 ), [Cu₁₂Te₆(PPh₃)₈] ( 5 ), [Cu₂₆Te₁₂(PEt₂Ph)₁₂] ( 6 ), [Cu₁₆Te₈(PⁿPr₂Ph)₁₀] ( 7 ), [Cu₄₄Te₂₃(PⁿPr₂Ph)₁₅] ( 8 ), [Cu₂₄Te₁₂(PⁱPr₃)₁₂] ( 9 ). Simple electron counting on the basis of Cu¹⁺ and Te^2– suggests that the smaller and medium size clusters 1 , 5 , 7 , and 9 are electron precise compounds and that on the other hand some of the medium size and larger ones 2 , 3 , 4 , and 8 must contain mixtures of Cu¹⁺/Cu²⁺ ions or 6 Cu¹⁺ ions and Cu⁰ atoms. UV‐VIS spectra in the solid state strongly confirms this suggestion by showing broad intervalence bands in the region of higher wavelengths for the cluster compounds formally being not electron precise. Apparently there is also an interesting dependence of these intervalence bands on the size of the cluster molecules.     

Hydrothermalsynthese und Kristallstruktur der Münzmetall‐Quecksilber‐Chalkogenidhalogenide CuHgSeBr,AgHgSBr und AgHgSI

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the Coinage Metal Mercury Chalcogenide Halides CuHgSeBr, AgHgSBr, and AgHgSI The hydrothermal reaction of CuBr and HgSe in concentrated aqueous HBr as solvent at 285 °C yields red crystals of CuHgSeBr, the hydrothermal reaction of AgX (X = Br, I) and HgS in half‐concentrated aqueous HX (X = Br, I) as solvent at 300/400 °C yields yellow crystals of AgHgSBr and AgHgSI. The compounds crystallize isotypically (orthorhombic, Pmma, a = 1020.1(3) pm, b = 431.2(1) pm, c = 925.6(3) pm for CuHgSeBr, a = 964.8(8) pm, b = 466.1(4) pm, c = 942.6(6) pm for AgHgSBr und a = 1015.9(2) pm, b = 464.77(5) pm, c = 984.9(2) pm for AgHgSI, Z = 4). The structures consist of plane folded Hg–Y chains connected by pairs of distorted Y₂X₂ terahedra sharing the X–X‐edge (M = Cu, Ag; X = Br, I; Y = S, Se). Atoms of the monovalent metals M have a strongly distorted tetrahedral coordination of two halogen and two chalcogen atoms. The new structure type shows distinct differences in the arrangement of the Hg–Y chains in comparision to the already known CuHgSeCl, but represents the superposition structure of the order‐disorder phase γ‐Hg₃S₂Cl₂.

The reaction of 1 or [{Cp*(OC)₂Fe}₂] ( 6 ) with 3 affords 5 or [{Cp*Fe}{Cp@Ta}As₅] ( 8 ) demonstrating the use of 3 as As_n source. 8 can also be synthesized from 1 and [Cp*Fe(η⁵‐As₅)] ( 7 ) for which the cothermolysis of 2 and 6 gives a better yield.     

Kristallstrukturen ferrocenhaltiger 1,3‐Diketon‐ und Enaminoketon‐Derivate

Über Münzmetall‐Quecksilber‐Chalkogenidhalogenide. II Hydrothermalsynthese,Kristallstruktur und Phasenumwandlung von CuHgSCl und CuHgSBr

On Coinage Metal Mercury Chalcogenide Halides II: Hydrothermal Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Solid State Phase Transition of CuHgSCl and CuHgSBr The hydrothermal reaction of CuCl and CuBr with HgS in concentrated aqueous HX (X = Cl, Br) as solvent at 670 K in sealed glass ampoules yields yellow‐orange crystals of CuHgSCl and CuHgSBr. Both compounds crystallize isotypically (orthorhombic, Pbam, a = 984.01(8), b = 1775.1(2), c = 409.59(3) pm for CuHgSCl and a = 1003.7(4), b = 1833.6(5), c = 412.4(2) pm for CuHgSBr, Z = 8). The structures consist of plane folded HgS chains connected by pairs of distorted CuS₂X₂ tetrahedra sharing the X—X‐edge (X = Cl, Br) in which the copper atoms occupy off‐centered positions. The large displacement factors of the Cu atoms represent thermal vibrations as shown by additional X‐ray investigations at different temperatures. The single‐crystal structure determination shows that the earlier structure model, based on powder diffraction data, is incorrect. The structure type of CuHgSCl und CuHgSBr shows distinct similarities to the structure type of the already known compounds CuHgSeBr, AgHgSBr and AgHgSI (MHgYX). At 323 K CuHgSBr undergoes a second order phase transition into a higher symmetric structure of the MHgYX type (orthorhombic, Pmam, a = 1009.2(3), b = 918.40(4), c = 413.81(2) pm) with halved b‐axis.     

Ein ungewöhnlicher ambivalenter Zinn(II)‐oxo‐Cluster

An Unusual Ambivalent Tin(II)‐oxo Cluster The reaction of the copper aryl CuDmp (Dmp = 2, 6‐Mes₂C₆H₃; Mes = 2, 4, 6‐Me₃C₆H₂) with the stannanediyl Sn{1, 2‐(tBuCH₂N)₂C₆H₄} followed by hydrolysis affords in the presence of lithium‐tert‐butoxide the tin(II)‐oxo cluster {(Et₂O)(LiOtBu)(SnO)(CuDmp)}₂ ( 5 ) in small yield. The solid state structure of the colorless compound shows a central Li₂Sn₂O₂(OtBu)₂ fragment with heterocubane structure. In addition, the Li‐acceptor and O(Sn)‐donor atoms are used for the coordination of one molecule diethylether and copper aryl CuDmp, respectively.     

Über Münzmetall‐Quecksilber‐Chalkogenidhalogenide. V1) Solvothermalsynthese und Kristallstruktur der Hochtemperatur‐Modifikation von AgHgSI

On Coinage Metal Mercury Chalcogenide Halides. V. Solvothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the High Temperature Modification of AgHgSI The solvothermal reaction of AgI and α‐HgS in diluted HI as solvent yields yellow crystals of α‐AgHgSI. The compound crystallizes in space group type P2₁2₁2₁ with a = 707.47(1), b = 773.18(2), c = 847.53(2) pm and Z = 4. The structure consists of a distorted hexagonal close packed array of sulphur and iodine, in which one fourth of the tetrahedral voids is occupied by silver and a half of the octahedral voids is occupied by mercury. The distortion of the hexagonal structure is caused by the steric demand of the lone pairs of sulphur and iodine. This could be shown by the calculation of the electron localisation function (ELF). The here described modification of AgHgSI can be obtained at 273 °C from the earlier published β‐AgHgSI and is therefore called α‐AgHgSI.

The crystal structures and the hydrogen bridging systems of the complexes are described.     

Synthesen und Kristallstrukturen von Dialkylgalliumhydriden — dimere versus trimere Formeleinheiten

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Dialkylgallium Hydrides — Dimeric versus Trimeric Formula Units Dialkylgallium hydrides (R = Me, Et, iPr, iBu, neopentyl) were obtained on two different synthetic routes. The dimethyl and diethyl compounds were formed by the reaction of LiH with the corresponding dialkylgallium chlorides via lithium dialkyldihydridogallate intermediates, which so far have not been isolated in a pure form. On the second route, trialkylgallium compounds were treated with [GaH₃·NMe₂Et] to yield the dialkylgallium hydrides by a substituent exchange reaction. The dimethyl, diethyl and diisopropyl compounds are trimeric in solution. That trimeric structure was verified for the diisopropyl derivative by a crystal structure determination. Di(neopentyl)gallium hydride has a dimeric structure in solution and in the solid state.     

Über Münzmetall‐Quecksilber‐Chalkogenidhalogenide. IV1) Hydrothermalsynthese und Kristallstruktur von CuHgSI und CuHg2S2I

On Coinage Metal Mercury Chalcogenide Halides. IV Hydrothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of CuHgSI and CuHg₂S₂I The hydrothermal reaction of CuI with α‐HgS in diluted aqueous HI‐solution as solvent at 180 °C yields dark red crystals of CuHgSI. The compound crystallizes orthorhombic in the space group Pna2₁ with a = 718.3(1) pm, b = 834.3(2) pm and c = 698.9(1) pm and Z = 4. CuHg₂S₂I was obtained by the hydrothermal reaction of CuI with α‐HgS in diluted HI‐solution at 300 °C as black crystals. The compound crystallizes orthorhombic in the space group Cmc2₁ with a = 1261.8(3) pm, b = 722.4(1) pm and c = 693.7(1) pm and Z = 4. Both crystal structures could be explained as distorted version of the Wurtzite structure type in which two different types of anion‐lattices are built up.     

Synthese und Koordinationsverhalten neuer Schiffscher Basen aus 3‐Formylacetylaceton und natürlichen L‐Aminosäuren

Three novel chiral Schiff Base ligands (H₂L) were prepared from the condensation reaction of 3‐formyl acetylacetone with the amino acids L ‐alanine, L ‐phenylalanine, and L ‐threonine. X‐ray single crystal analyses revealed that the Schiff Base compounds exist as enamine tautomers in the solid state. The molecular structure of the compounds is stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen bridge between the enamine NH function and a carbonyl oxygen atom of the pentandione residue. Treatment of the ligands H₂L with copper(II) actetate in the presence of pyridine led to the formation of copper complexes [CuL(py)]. In each of the complexes the copper atoms adopt a distorted square‐pyramidal coordination. Three of the basal coordination sites are occupied by the doubly deprotonated Schiff Bases L^2– which act as tridentate chelating O, N, O‐ligands. The remaining coordination sites are occupied by a pyridine ligand at the base and a carboxyl oxygen atom of a neighboring complex at the apical position. The latter coordination is responsible for a catenation of the complexes in the solid state.
