The crystal structure of ( 1 ) reveals a positional disorder of the anion sublattice along the asymmetric axis. Due to the stronger trans influence of I compared with Cl on asymmetric axes Cl˙–Re–I′ is caused a mean lenghthening of the Re–Cl˙ distances of 0.020 Å (0.8%) and a shortening of the Re–I′ distances of 0.035 Å (1.3%) with regard to symmetrically coordinated axes Cl–Re–Cl and I–Re–I, respectively. Using the molecular parameters of the X-Ray determinations the low temperature (10 K) IR and Raman spectra of the (n-Bu₄N) salts of all four chloro-iodo-rhenates(IV) are assigned by normal coordinate analyses. The weakening of the Re–Cl˙ bonds and the strengthening of the Re–I′ bonds is indicated by a decrease or increase of the valence force constants each by 9%.

Re is in the centre of the (N_p)₄ plane (N_p: N1, N3) and coordinates two triphenylphosphine ligands axially in trans position. The average Re–N_p and Re–P distances are 2.007(1) and 2.516(3) Å, respectively. Despite the many extra bands the typical B, Q and N regions of the pc^2– ligand are observed at ca. 16500, 28900/32900 and 35300 cm^–1. A weak band group at ca. 8900 cm^–1 is attributed to a trip-multiplet transition, another one at ca. 14500 cm^–1 to a P → Re charge transfer. The vibrational spectra are dominated by internal vibrations of the pc^2– ligand. The very weak intensity of the IR bands at 905 and 1327 cm^–1 are diagnostic of the presence of Re^II.     

Tetra-, penta-, and hexacoordination in iron (II) adducts of aliphatic bidentate amines. Crystal and molecular structure of the mononuclear complexes Fe(dienMe)Cl2 and Fe(tmeda)I2

The thf adduct of FeCl₂, FeCl₂(thf)_1.5, reacts with bidentate aliphatic nitrogen bases in toluene as medium to give the corresponding adducts of FeCl₂. X-ray crystallography of Fe(dienMe)Cl₂ (dienMe = bis(2-dimethylaminoethyl)methylamine) has shown the compound to be mononuclear with pentacoordinated iron, thus confirming an earlier suggestion by Ciampolini and Speroni based on spectroscopic and magnetic data. Crystal data: C₉H₂₃Cl₂FeN₃; M = 300.06 g·mol⁻¹; monoclinic; space group P2₁/c (No. 14); a = 8.396(3); b = 29.556(8); c = 12.108(3) Å; β = 101.22(4)°; V = 2947(3) ų; Z = 8; d_calc = 1.352 g·cm⁻³; λ_Ag−Kα = 0.56087 Å; μ = 7.02 cm⁻¹; F(000) = 1264; T = 293 K. Bromo- and iodo complexes of iron (II) have been prepared by using cis-FeX₂(CO)₄ (X = Br, I) as precursors. The reaction of cis-Fe(CO)₄X₂ (X = Br, I) with N,N′-dimethyl-ethylenediamine (dmeda) or N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (tmeda) in heptane as medium affords adducts of general formula Fe(NN)_nX₂ − X = Br, I; NN = dmeda, n = 2, NN = tmeda, n = 1. The iodo derivative Fe(tmeda)I₂ has been characterized by X-ray crystallography and found to be mononuclear with tetracoordinated iron (II) in a distorted tetrahedral arrangement of two iodo- and two nitrogen atoms of the bidentate amine. Crystal data: C₆H₁₆FeI₂N₂; M = 425.86 g·mol⁻¹; orthorhombic; space group Pbca (No. 61); a = 14.724(2); b = 15.151(4); c = 24.173.(3) Å; U = 5392(2) ų; Z = 16; d_calc = 2.098 g·cm⁻³; λ_Ag−Kα = 0.56087 Å; μ = 29.52 cm⁻¹; F(000) = 3168; T = 293 K.

Kristallstrukturen und thermisches Verhalten von Metalldihydrogenphosphat‐HF‐Addukten MH2PO4 · HF (M = K,Rb, Cs) mit Wasserstoffbrückenbindungen vom Typ F–H…O

Structures and Thermal Behaviour of Alkali Metal Dihydrogen Phosphate HF Adducts, MH₂PO₄ · HF (M = K, Rb, Cs), with Hydrogen Bonds of the F–H…O Type Three HF adducts of alkali metal dihydrogen phosphates, MH₂PO₄ · HF (M = K, Rb, Cs), have been isolated from fluoroacidic solutions of MH₂PO₄. KH₂PO₄ · HF crystallizes monoclinic: P2₁/c, a = 6,459(2), b = 7,572(2), c = 9,457(3) Å, β = 101,35(3)°, V = 453,5(3) ų, Z = 4. RbH₂PO₄ · HF and CsH₂PO₄ · HF are orthorhombic: Pna2₁, a = 9,055(3), b = 4,635(2), c = 11,908(4) Å, V = 499,8(3) ų, Z = 4, and Pbca, a = 7,859(3), b = 9,519(4), c = 14,744(5) Å, V = 1102,5(7) ų, Z = 8, respectively. The crystal structures of MH₂PO₄ · HF contain M⁺ cations, H₂PO₄^– anions and neutral HF molecules. The H₂PO₄^– anions are connected to layers by O–H…O hydrogen bonds (2,53–2,63 Å), whereas the HF molecules are attached to the layers via very short hydrogen bonds of the F‐H…O type (2,36–2,38 Å). The thermal decomposition of the adducts proceeds in three steps. The first step corresponds to the release of mainly HF and a smaller quantity of water. In the second and third steps, water evolution caused by condensation of dihydrogen phosphate is the dominating process whereas smaller amounts of HF are also released.     

Kristallstruktur,Schwingungsspektren und Normalkoordinatenanalyse von K2[IrCl5(NH3)]

Crystal Structure, Vibrational Spectra, and Normal Coordinate Analysis of K₂[IrCl₅(NH₃)] The X-ray structure determination of K₂[IrCl₅(NH₃)] (orthorhombic, space group Pnma, a = 13.426(4), b = 10.015(2), c = 6.8717(7) Å, Z = 4) revealed the C_s point symmetry of the complex anion [IrCl₅(NH₃)]^2? (Ir? Cl = 2.337–2.365, Ir? N = 2.067(10); N? H = 0.73–0.79 Å). Using the molecular parameters the IR and Raman spectra are assigned by normal coordinate analysis. The valence force constants are f_d(NH) = 5.88, f_d(IrN) = 2.66, f_d(IrCl) = 1.68 mdyn/Å.     

Kristallstrukturen,Schwingungsspektren und Normalkoordinatenanalyse von cis-(Et4N)[OsF2Cl4] und trans-(Ph4P)[OsF2Cl4]

Crystal Structures, Vibrational Spectra, and Normal Coordinate Analysis of cis -(Et₄N)[OsF₂Cl₄] and trans -(Ph₄P)[OsF₂Cl₄] By oxidation of the pure fluorochloroosmates(IV) with KBrF₄ or PbO₂/trifluoracetic acid in dichloromethane the mixed pentavalent complex anions cis-[OsF₂Cl₄]^– and trans-[OsF₂Cl₄]^– are formed. X-ray structure determinations on single crystals have been performed of cis-(Et₄N) · [OsF₂Cl₄] ( 1 ) (monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 7.519(2), b = 17.648(2), c = 11.942(4) Å, β = 105.98(2)°, Z = 4) and trans-(Ph₄P)[OsF₂Cl₄] ( 2 ) (tetragonal, space group P4/n, a = 12.677(2), c = 7.743(1) Å, Z = 2). Based on the molecular parameters of the X-ray determinations and assuming C_2v point symmetry for the anion of 1 and D_4h point symmetry for the anion of 2 the IR and Raman spectra have been assigned by normal coordinate analysis. Due to the stronger trans influence of chlorine as compared with fluorine for F ^· –Os–Cl′ axes significally different valence force constants are observed in comparison with symmetrically coordinated axes: f_d(OsF ^· ) = 3.35, f_d(OsF) = 3.73, f_d(OsCl′) = 2.05 and f_d(OsCl) with 1.98 and 2.00 mdyn/Å.
