Hydroxo‐bridged Tetranuclear CuII Complexes: {[Cu(bpy)(OH)]4Cl2}Cl2 · 6 H2O and {[Cu(phen)(OH)]4(H2O)2}]Cl4 · 4 H2O

The building units are centrosymmetric tetranuclear {[Cu(bpy)(OH)]₄Cl₂}²⁺ and {[Cu(phen)(OH)]₄(H₂O)₂}⁴⁺ complex cations formed by condensation of four elongated square pyramids CuN₂(OH)₂L^ap with the apical ligands L^ap = Cl, H₂O, OH. The resulting [Cu₄(μ₂‐OH)₂(μ₃‐OH)₂] core has the shape of a zigzag band of three Cu₂(OH)₂ squares. The cations exhibit intramolecular and intermolecular π‐π stacking interactions and the latter form 2D layers with the non‐bonded Cl^– anions and H₂O molecules in between (bond lengths: Cu–N = 1.995–2.038 Å; Cu–O = 1.927–1.982 Å; Cu–Cl^ap = 2.563; Cu–O^ap(OH) = 2.334–2.369 Å; Cu–O^ap(H₂O) = 2.256 Å).

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.

X‐ray structure determinations on single crystals of trans‐(Ph₄P)₂[Pt(N₃)₄(SCN)₂] (triclinic, space group P 1, a = 10.309(3), b = 11.228(2), c = 11.967(2) Å, α = 87.267(13), β = 75.809(16), γ = 65.312(17)°, Z = 1) and trans‐(Ph₄P)₂[Pt(N₃)₄(SeCN)₂] (triclinic, space group P 1, a = 9.1620(10), b = 10.8520(10), c = 12.455(2) Å, α = 90.817(10), β = 102.172(10), γ = 92.994(9)°, Z = 1) reveal, that the compounds crystallize isotypically with octahedral centrosymmetric complex anions.

Erste Reaktionen an der P=C- und an der P–P-Bindung des neuen P-Phosphanylphosphaalkens 1-Bis(trimethylsilyl)methyliden-2,2-diisopropyldiphosphan

The New P -Phosphanylphosphaalkene 1-Bis(trimethylsilyl)methylidene-2,2-diisopropyldiphosphane: First Reactions at its P=C and P–P Bonds (Me₃Si)₂C=PCl ( 1 ) reacts with the trichlorosilylphosphanes RR′PSiCl₃ (R and R′ = t-Bu or i-Pr) providing the new P-dialkylphosphanylphosphaalkenes (Me₃Si)₂C=P–P-i-Pr₂ ( 2 ) and (Me₃Si)₂C=P–P(t-Bu)(i-Pr) ( 3 ) as well as the known (Me₃Si)₂C=P–P-t-Bu₂ ( 4 ). The P=C double bond of 2 can be protected reversibly by a [2 + 4]-cycloaddition with cyclopentadiene resulting in the formation of a P-phosphanyl-phosphanorbornene derivative 5 . The [2 + 4]-cycloaddition of 2 with 2,3-dimethylbutadiene provides the cyclic diphosphane 6 . Reactions of 2 with sulfur and selenium were followed by ³¹P and ⁷⁷Se nmr: Chalcogen insertion into the P–P bond leads to the products (Me₃Si)₂C=P–X–P-i-Pr₂ 9 a (X = S) and  9 b (X = Se). Subsequent σ³λ³ → σ⁴λ⁵ oxidation steps of 9 a with S and of 9 b with Se lead to compounds (Me₃Si)₂C=P–X–P(=X)-i-Pr₂ 10 a (X = S) and 10 b (X = Se), which contain phosphinic acid functions with the phosphaalkene moieties attached to S or Se. 10 a and 10 b were not isolated in a pure state. However, trapping 10 b from an enriched solution by [2 + 4]-cycloaddition with cyclopentadiene allowed the isolation of the P-diseleno-phosphinato-phosphanorbornene 12 . The constitution of new compounds 2 , 3 , 5 , 6 and 12 was confirmed by elemental analyses, nmr and mass spectra. The structures of cycloadducts 5 and 6 were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis.     

Das erste Alkalimetall‐Lanthanoid(III)‐Iodid‐Oxotellurat(IV): Na2Lu3I3[TeO3]4

Colorless platelets of Na₂Lu₃I₃[TeO₃]₄ were obtained within five days at 775 °C by the reaction of Lu₂O₃ and TeO₂ in a 3:8 molar ratio with NaI added in excess as both fluxing agent and reactant in evacuated silica ampoules. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2/c with the lattice parameters a = 921.69(5), b = 552.71(3), c = 1664.37(9) pm, β = 90.218(4)° and Z = 2. The crystal structure of Na₂Lu₃I₃[TeO₃]₄ exhibits two crystallographically different Lu³⁺ cations, both coordinated by eight O^2– anions as square antiprisms. These polyhedra are interconnected through four common edges to build up {}^2_∞ {[LuO{}^e_8/2 ]^5–} layers (e = edge‐linking) parallel to (100). Furthermore, the crystal structure includes a crystallographically unique Na⁺ cation surrounded by four O^2– and four I^– anions also in the shape of a square antiprism. These polyhedra connect via common (I2)^–···(I2)^– edges in generating {}^1_∞ {[Na₂O₈I{}^e_4 ]^18–} double‐strands that are further linked by (I1)^– vertices to result in the formation of {}^2_∞ {[Na₂O₈I₃{}^e,v_3 ]^17–} layers (v = vertex‐linking) spreading out parallel to (100) as well. Thus, the crystal structure contains two crystallographically distinct I^– anions, of which (I1)^– is coordinated nearly linear (? (Na–I1–Na) = 179.6°) by two Na⁺ cations, whereas (I2)^– has contact to three of them displaying a distance of 114 pm from the triangular (Na⁺)₃ plane. The crystal structure of Na₂Lu₃I₃[TeO₃]₄ is completed by two crystallographically independent Te⁴⁺ cations that show stereochemically active non‐bonding electron pairs (“lone pairs”) and are located above and below the {}^2_∞ {[LuO{}^e_8/2 ]^5–} layers forming isolated ψ¹‐tetrahedral [TeO₃]^2– anions (d(Te–O) = 188–190 pm) with all oxygen atoms.     

Kristallstrukturen,Schwingungsspektren und Normalkoordinatenanalysen der Chloro-Iodo-Rhenate(IV) (CH2Py2)[ReCl5I], cis-(CH2Py2)[ReCl4I2] · 2 DMSO,trans-(CH2Py2)[ReCl4I2] · 2 DMSO und fac-(EtPh3P)2[ReCl3I3]

Crystal Structures, Vibrational Spectra, and Normal Coordinate Analyses of the Chloro-Iodo-Rhenates(IV) (CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₅I], cis -(CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₄I₂] · 2 DMSO, trans -(CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₄I₂] · 2 DMSO, and fac -(EtPh₃P)₂[ReCl₃I₃] [ReCl₅I]^2–, cis-[ReCl₄I₂]^2–, trans-[ReCl₄I₂]^2–, and fac-[ReCl₃I₃]^2– have been synthesized by ligand exchange reactions of [ReI₆]^2– with HCl and are separated by ion exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose. X-ray structure determinations have been performed on single crystals of (CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₅I] ( 1 ) (triclinic, space group P1 with a = 7.685(2), b = 9.253(2), c = 12.090(4) Å, α = 90.06(2), β = 101.11(2), γ = 95.07(2)°, Z = 2), cis-(CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₄I₂] · 2 DMSO ( 2 ) (triclinic, space group P1 with a = 8.662(2), b = 12.109(2), c = 12.9510(12) Å, a = 97.533(11), β = 96.82(2), γ = 89.90(2)°, Z = 2) , trans-(CH₂Py₂)[ReCl₄I₂] · 2 DMSO ( 3 ) (triclinic, space group P1 with a = 9.315(7), b = 9.663(3), c = 15.232(3) Å, α = 80.09(2), β = 81.79(4), γ = 83.99(5)°, Z = 2) and fac-(EtPh₃P)₂[ReCl₃I₃] ( 4 ) (monoclinic, space group P2₁/a with a = 17.453(2), b = 13.366(1), c = 19.420(1) Å, β = 112.132(8)°, Z = 4). 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%.
