Structural and Thermal Studies on the Ion-pairs [Co(NH3)6]5[HV10O28]3·18H2O and [Co(NH3)6][V2O6OH]

Two cobalt hexammine-vanadate ion-pair complexes have been prepared; one in acid medium (pH≈4) and the other in alkaline medium (pH≈10). The formed complexes were characterized by their elemental analysis, IR and XRD techniques. The complexes were subjected to thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses. The IR study suggests that the formed complexes were of the ion-pair type, while that of the thermally decomposed compounds revealed the resolution of the originally present broad V=O and V-O-V bands. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Pd[CH3O（O）C6H3CHNNC（S）NH2]（C5H5N）

1 INTRODUCTION Palladium (Ⅱ) coordination and organometallic compounds usually show square planar environments at the metal center[1], and have experienced an im- portant development in the past years due to their acting as intermediates in different types of catalytic reactions and numerous applications in organic synthesis[2]. Although palladium plays an increase- ingly recognized role as a biometal[3], little is known about the structure and function of palladium compounds in living …     

Synthese und Kristallstruktur von Na10[P4(NH)6N4](NH2)6(NH3)0,5 mit dem adamantanartig aufgebauten Anion [P4(NH)6N4]4−

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Na₁₀[P₄(NH)₆N₄](NH₂)₆(NH₃)_0.5 with an Adamantane-like Anion [P₄(NH)₆N₄]^4? Crystals of Na₁₀[P₄(NH)₆N₄](NH₂)₆(NH₃)_0.5 were obtained by the reaction of P₃N₅ with NaNH₂ (molar ratio 1:20) within 5 d at 600°C in autoclaves. The following data characterize X-ray investigations: Fm3 m, Z = 8, a = 15.423(2) Å, Z(F) = 261 with F ≥ 3 σ(F) Z(Variables) = 27, R/R_w = 0.086/0.089 The compound contains the hitherto unknown anion [P₄(NH)₆N₄]^4?, which resembles adamantane. The total structure can be described as follows: The centers of gravity of units of [Na₈(NH₂)₆(NH₃)]²⁺ – 8Na⁺ on the corners of a cube, 6NH₂^? on the ones of an inscribed octahedron with NH₃ in the center – follow the motif of a cubic-closest packed arrangement. Units of [Na₁₂(NH₂)₆]⁶⁺ – 12Na⁺ on the corners of a cuboctahedron and 6NH₂^? on the ones of an inscribed octahedron – occupy all octahedral and those of [P₄(NH)₆N₄]^4? all tetrahedral sites.     

Darstellung und Kristallstrukturen von [P(C6H5)4][1-(NH3)B10H9] und Cs[(NH3)B12H11] · 2CH3OH

Synthesis and Crystal Structures of [P(C₆H₅)₄][1-(NH₃)B₁₀H₉] and Cs[(NH₃)B₁₂H₁₁] · 2CH₃OH The reduction of [1-(NO₂)B₁₀H₉]^2? with aluminum in alkaline solution yields [1-(NH₃)B₁₀H₉]^? and by treatment of [B₁₂H₁₂]^2? with hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid [(NH₃)B₁₂H₁₁]^? is formed. The crystal structures of [P(C₆H₅)₄][1-(NH₃)B₁₀H₉] (triclinic, space group P1 , a = 7.491(2), b = 13.341(2), c = 14.235(1) Å, α = 68.127(9), β = 81.85(2), γ = 86.860(3)°, Z = 2) and Cs[(NH₃)B₁₂H₁₁] · 2CH₃OH (monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 14.570(2), b = 7.796(1), c = 15.076(2) Å, β = 111.801(8)°, Z = 4) reveal for both compounds the bonding of an ammine substituent to the cluster anion.     

Thermolysis of [Co(NH3)6][Cr(C2O4)3]

Thermolysis of the double-metal complex [Co(NH₃)₆][Cr(C₂O₄)₃] was studied in air at 200, 350, and 500°C and in a hydrogen atmosphere at 200, 350, 500, 700, and 900°C, as well as the composition and properties of thermolysis products. Oxidative thermolysis produces mixed oxides CoCr₂O₄ and Co₂CrO₄; reductive thermolysis produces Co + Cr₂O₃ mixture. Specific surface areas were measured for reductive thermolysis products; the maximal specific surface area and, therefore, maximal dispersion are reached at 500°C. The morphology of the reductive thermolysis products and the thermolysis chemism were studied in relation to the nature of the complex anion.     

Group 2 metal salts of pyromellitic acid: [Mg(H2O)6](C10H4O8) and [Ba(C10H4O8)(H2O)5]

Structural determinations of the magnesium(II) and barium(II) salts of pyromellitic acid (benzene‐1,2,4,5‐tetra­carboxyl­ic acid) are presented. Hexa­aqua­magnesium(II) benzene‐1,2,4,5‐tetra­carboxyl­ate(2−), [Mg(H₂O)₆](C₁₀H₄O₈), (I), and penta­aqua­[benzene‐1,2,4,5‐tetra­carboxyl­ato(2−)]­barium(II), [Ba(C₁₀H₄O₈)(H₂O)₅], (II), are both centrosymmetric and both possess a 1:1 metal–ligand ratio, but the two structures are found to differ in that the magnesium salt contains a hexaaqua cation and possesses only hydrogen‐bonding interactions between cations and anions, while the barium salt exhibits coordination of the carboxyl­ate ligand to the nine‐coordinate metal centre. In (I), both ions sit on a 2/m site symmetry, and in (II), the cation and anion are located on m and i site symmetries, respectively.     

[Mo12O40P][C44H38P2][CoC10H10] * 3(C3H7NO): A quasi-ternary intercluster compound

Binary intercluster compounds (IC) can be reduced to basic structure types of ionic solids. We examined the validity of this concept for ternary compounds, on the example of a quasi-ternary intercluster compound made from a Keggin anion ([PMo₁₂O₄₀]^3?), an organic cation (o-xylylenebis(triphenylphosphonium)), and a complex (cobaltocenium). The new compound and its two related quasi-binary IC were investigated by X-ray diffractometry, examined for intermolecular interactions such as hydrogen-bonding, π–, or van der Waals-interactions, and evaluated for possible reductions to basic structure types.     

X-ray Diffraction Studies of Molecular Ferrimagnet [P(C6H5)4][MnFe(C2O4)3] on Heating

A structure of the [P(C₆H₅)₄][MnFe(C₂O₄)₃] single crystal is studied by X-ray diffraction within the 100–370 K temperature interval. The phase transition observed in the 150–170 K region is probably due to the cooperative ordering of the axial phenyl rings of the organic cations in the special positions.
