In the anion of [Me₂HN–(CH₂)₂–NMe₂H] [Sn₃I₈] ( 3 ) distorted SnI₆ octahedra sharing common edges and vertices form a two‐dimensional network.

Reaction Behaviour of Copper(I) and Copper(II) Salts Towards P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃ ‐ the Solid‐State Structures of {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuOClO₃}ClO₄, {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]Cu}ClO₄, [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuONO₂ and [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₂(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂H⁺NO₃^‐‐2)]CuONO₂ The reaction behaviour of P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃ ( 1 ) towards different copper(II) and copper(I) salts of the type CuX₂ ( 2a : X = BF₄, 2b : X = PF₆, 2c : X = ClO₄, 2d : X = NO₃, 2e : X = Cl, 2f : X = Br, 13 : X = O₂CMe) and CuX ( 5a : X = ClO₄, 5b : X = NO₃, 5c : X = Cl, 5d : X = Br) is discussed. Depending on X, the transition metal complexes [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃Cu]X₂ ( 3a : X = BF₄, 3b : X = PF₆), {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuX}X ( 4 : X = ClO₄, 11a : X = Cl, 11b : X = Br, 14 : X = O₂CMe), {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]Cu}ClO₄ ( 6 ), [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuX ( 7a : X = Cl, 7b : X = Br, 10 : X = ONO₂), [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₂(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂H⁺NO₃^‐‐2)]CuONO₂ ( 9 ) and [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuCl}CuCl₂ ( 12 ) are accessible. While in 3a , 3b and 6 the phosphane 1 preferentially acts as tetrapodale ligand, in all other species only the phosphorus atom and two of the three C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂ side‐arms are datively‐bound to the appropriate copper ion. In solution a dynamic behaviour of the latter species is observed. Due to the coordination ability of X in 3a , 3b and 6 non‐coordinating anions X^‐ are present. However, in 4 one of the two perchlorate ions forms a dative oxygen‐copper bond and the second perchlorate ion acts as counter ion to {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuOClO₃}⁺. In 7 , 9 and 10 the fragments X (X = Cl, Br, ONO₂) form a σ‐bond with the copper(I) ion. The acetate moiety in 14 acts as chelating ligand as it could be shown by IR‐spectroscopic studies. All newly synthesised cationic and neutral copper(I) and copper(II) complexes are representing stable species. Redox processes are involved in the formation of 9 and 12 by reacting 1 with 2 . The solid‐state structures of 4 , 6 , 9 and 10 are reported. In the latter complexes the copper(II) ( 4 ) or copper(I) ion ( 6 , 9 , 10 ) possesses the coordination number 4. This is achieved by the formation of a phosphorus‐ and two nitrogen‐copper‐ ( 4 , 9 , 10 ) or three ( 6 ) nitrogen‐copper dative bonds and a coordinating ( 4 ) or σ‐binding ( 9 , 10 ) ligand X. In 6 all three nitrogen and the phosphorus atoms are coordinatively bound to copper, while X acts as non‐coordinating counter‐ion. Based on this, the respective copper ion occupies a distorted tetrahedral coordination sphere. While in 4 and 10 a free, neutral Me₂NCH₂ side‐arm is present, which rapidly exchanges in solution with the coordinatively‐bound Me₂NCH₂ fragments, this unit is protonated in 10 . NO₃^‐ acts as counter ion to the CH₂NMe₂H⁺ moiety. In all structural characterized complexes 6‐membered boat‐like CuPNC₃ cycles are present.

Synthesis and Structure of [(Me₂PhP)₃Cl₂ReN]₂ReCl₄, [(Me₂PhP)₃Cl₂ReN]₂ReCl₄ · 2 SbCl₃ and [Re(NH)Cl₂(PMe₂Ph)₃][SbCl₆] The reaction of ReNCl₂(PMePh)₃ with SbCl₅ in toluene yields the trinuclear complex [(Me₂PhP)₃Cl₂Re≡N]₂ReCl₄ · 2 SbCl₃ ( 1 · 2 SbCl₃). It forms triclinic crystals with the composition 1 · 2 SbCl₃, as well as monoclinic crystals 1 · 2 SbCl₃ · 4 C₇H₈. The monoclinic crystals with the space group P2₁/c, and a = 1212.3(2), b = 2098.5(4), c = 1827.7(3) pm, β = 95.51(1)°, Z = 2, have been used for a crystal structure determination. In the centrosymmetric complex 1 two complexes ReNCl₂(PMe₂Ph)₃ coordinate with their nitrido ligands a square planar, central unit ReCl₄. The SbCl₃ molecules are coordinated by chlorine bridges to Cl atoms of 1 , and, in addition, connect the complexes 1 with each other. The SbCl₃ free compound 1 is obtained in good yield by the reaction of ReNCl₂(PMePh)₃ with ReCl₄(NCEt)₂. It crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with a = 1037.7(3), b = 1153.0(2), c = 1393.8(3) pm, α = 72.31(2)°, β = 74.06(2)°, γ = 67.94(2)°, and Z = 1. The bond lengths of the Re–N triple bonds are 172 pm in 1 and 170 pm in 1 · 2 SbCl₃. By the reaction of ReNCl₂(PMePh)₃ with SbCl₅ in CH₂Cl₂ the solvent is decomposed forming HCl which protonates the nitrido ligand to afford the imido complex [Re(NH)Cl₂(PMe₂Ph)₃][SbCl₆] ( 2 ) crystallizing in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a = 1221.4(2), b = 1358.6(2), c = 2177.3(1) pm, β = 92,72(1)° and Z = 4. The Re–N distance in the almost linear unit Re≡N–H is 169,1 pm.     

Structural Investigations and Thermal Behavior of (NH4)[Cr(C2O4)2]·2H2O

Single crystals of ammonium chromium(III) dioxalate dihydrate (or ammonium diaquo bis(μ‐oxalato)chromate(III)) have been obtained from aqueous solution of oxalic acid and ammonium dichromate. A pale violet crystal of good optical quality was used for the structure determination at ?100(2) and 25(2) °C, respectively. The basic crystallographic data for the low temperature data set are as follows: monoclinic, space group C2/m, a = 6.597(2) Å, b = 7.301(2) Å, c = 9.983(3) Å, β = 92.32(2)°, V = 480.5(2) ų. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined (using anisotropic displacement parameters for all non‐hydrogen atoms) to a final residual of R1 = 0.032 for 503 independent observed reflections (I>2σ(I)). The compound is isotypic with the corresponding rubidium salt. The structure is built up from alternating layers parallel to (001) containing (NH₄)⁺ ions or Cr(C₂O₄)₂(H₂O)₂ octahedra, respectively. The corners of the octahedra consist of four O atoms from two oxalate groups and two additional water molecules. The ammonium cations (occupying Wyckoff‐site 2a) are disordered among two possible orientations. They provide linkage between different octahedral layers by hydrogen bridging. The water molecules in turn form hydrogen bridges with adjacent octahedra within the same layer. Further structural characterization included infrared spectroscopy. According to DTA/TG experiments the present compound shows several thermal processes in the range between room temperature and 900 °C.     

Darstellung und Struktur der Komplexverbindungen trans‐[CoIII(py)4F2][H2F3] und [Pd(py)4]F2 · 1,5 HF · 2 H2O

Synthesis and Crystal Structures of the Complexes trans ‐[Co^III(py)₄F₂][H₂F₃] and [Pd(py)₄]F₂ · 1.5 HF · 2 H₂O The cobalt complex trans‐[Co(III)(py)₄F₂][H₂F₃] ( 1 ) has been prepared by electrochemical oxidation of CoF₂ in a pyridine/HF mixture and the palladium complex [Pd(py)₄]F₂ · 1.5 HF · 2 H₂O ( 2 ) has been obtained via halogen exchange between Pd(py)₂Cl₂ and AgF₂ in pyridine. 1 and 2 crystallize in the space group C2/c with a = 27.928(14), b = 9.019(3), c = 18.335(8) Å, β = 113.41(3)° for 1 and a = 28.183(9), b = 9.399(3), c = 17.397(6) Å, β = 104.66(3)° for 2 , respectively. Concerning the shape and location of the M(py)₄ fragments 1 and 2 are isostructural. The metal atoms occupy special positions in their unit cells with the result that four complex atoms have C₂ symmetry and four complex cations have C_i symmetry giving a total of Z = 8. In 1 two F^– ions complete an octahedral coordination around the Co atoms (Co–F 1.820(2) to 1.834(3) Å). In 2 the shortest Pd–F distance is 3.031(2) Å. This precludes the existence of Pd–F bonds. In 1 one can identify H₂F₃^– groups. In 2 there are larger aggregates, consisting of F^–, HF, and H₂O subunits, connected by H‐bridges. In spite of these differences, both complexes belong to the same type of structure, which may be of a common type M^x+(py)₄F_x · y HF · z H₂O.     

Syntheses,characterizations and crystal structures of two new complexes, [Co2(CH2 =C(CH3)CO2)4(phen)2(H2O)2] and [Pb2(CH2 =C(CH3)CO2)4(phen)2]

Two new complexes, [Co₂(CH₂=C(CH₃)CO₂)₄(phen)₂(H₂O)₂] (1) and [Pb₂(CH₂=C(CH₃)CO₂)₄(phen)₂] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) (2), have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. There are two cocrystallized conformers of [Co(CH₂=C(CH₃)CO₂)₂(phen)(H₂O)] in the asymmetric unit of 1 with the Co atoms displaying similar coordination modes. In the asymmetric unit of 2, there exist two crystallographically independent [Pb(CH₂=C(CH₃)CO₂)₂(phen)] molecules with the Pb atoms showing completely different coordination geometries. Weak intermolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking are responsible for the supramolecular assembly and stabilization of the crystal structures of 1 and 2. The complexes are characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, and UV–Vis spectra. The fluorescent properties of 2 are also discussed.

The crystal structure (monoclinic, P2₁/n (no. 14), a = 8.061(1), b = 15.160(2), c = 9.708(2) Å, β = 90.939(7)°, Z = 2, R = 0.0405, wR² = 0.0971) consists of adipate bridged supramolecular [(μ‐C₆H₈O₄)_4/2Co(μ‐H₂O)₂Co(H₂O)₄] layers and hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules. The cobalt atoms Co1 and Co2 are distorted octahedrally coordinated by the O atoms of two bridging trans‐H₂O molecules and four bidentate adipate anions (Co1) and by the O atoms of two bridging trans‐H₂O molecules and four monodentate H₂O molecules (Co2), respectively. Equatorial bonds: d(Co1–O) = 2.048 Å (2 × ), 2.060 Å (2 × ); d(Co2–O) = 2.057 Å (2 × ), 2.072 Å (2 × ). Axial bonds: d(Co1–O) = 2.235 Å (2 × ); d(Co2–O) = 2.156 Å (2 × ).

Coordination Polymeric 1, 2‐Dithiooxalato and 1, 2‐Dithiosquarato Complexes. Syntheses and Structures of [BaCr₂(bipy)₂(1, 2‐dtox)₄(H₂O)₂], [Ni(cyclam)(1, 2‐dtsq)]·2DMF, [Ni(cyclam)Mn(1, 2‐dtsq)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H2₂, and [H₃O][H₅O₂][Cu(cyclam)]₃[Cu₂(1, 2‐dtsq)₃]₂ 1, 2‐Dithioxalate and 1, 2‐dithiosquarate ions have a pair of soft and hard donor centers and thus are suited for the formation of coordination polymeric complexes containing soft and hard metal ions. The structures of four compounds with building blocks containing these ligands are reported: In [BaCr₂(bipy)₂(1, 2‐dtox)₄(H₂O)₂] Barium ions and pairs of Cr(bipy)(1, 2‐dtox)₂ complexes form linear chains by the bisbidentate coordination of the dithiooxalate ligands towards Ba²⁺ and Cr³⁺. In [Ni(cyclam)(1, 2‐dtsq)]·2DMF short NÖH···O hydrogen bonds link the NiS₂N₄‐octahedra with C_2v‐symmetry to an infinite chain. In [Ni(cyclam)Mn(1, 2‐dtsq)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O the 1, 2‐dithiosquarato ligand shows a rare example of S‐coordination towards manganese(II). The sulfur atoms of cis‐MnO₂S₄‐polyedra are weakly coordinated towards the axial sites of square‐planar NiN₄‐centers, thus forming a zig‐zag‐chain of Mn···Ni···Mn···Ni polyhedra. [H₃O][H₅O₂][Cu (cyclam)]₃[Cu₂(1, 2‐dtsq)₃]₂ contains square planar [Cu^II(cyclam)]²⁺ ions and dinuclear [Cu^I₂(1, 2‐dtsq)₃]^4— ions. Here each copper atom is trigonally planar coordinated by S‐donor atoms of the ligands. The Cu…Cu distance is 2.861(4)Å.     

Benzodithiazolium‐Chlorooxomolybdate(V): Darstellung und Kristallstruktur von (C6H4NS2)[MoOCl4] und (C6H4NS2)[MoOCl4·H2O]

Benzodithiazolium Chlorooxomolybdate(V): Preparation and Crystal Structure of (C₆H₄NS₂)[MoOCl₄] and (C₆H₄NS₂)[MoOCl₄·H₂O] Red benzo‐1,3,2‐dithiazolium‐chlorooxomolybdate(V) (C₆H₄NS₂)[MoOCl₄] ( 1 ) was obtained by the reaction of benzo‐1,3,2‐dithiazoliumchloride and molybdenum(V)chloride oxide in dichlormethane under solvothermal conditions at 70 °C. In the presence of small amounts of concentrated hydrochloric acid the yellow compound (C₆H₄NS₂)[MoOCl₄·H₂O] ( 2 ) is formed under analogue conditions. Both crystal structures ( 1 : monoclinic, C2/c, a = 799.2(1), b = 2091.5(2), c = 791.5(1) pm, β = 102.2(1)°, Z = 4; 2 : monoclinic, Cc, a = 953.7(1), b = 2468.9(3), c = 608.1(1) pm, β = 112.5(1)°, Z = 4) contain the planar benzo‐1,3,2‐dithiazolium ion. Within the structure of 1 the molybdenum atoms in the [MoOCl₄]^? ions are coordinated in a square pyramidal fashion with an oxygen atom in apical position and the basal plane formed by chlorine atoms. The nitrogen atom of the cation, which bears a partial negativ charge, expands the coordination to a distorted octahedron. The structure therefore is made up of ionic pairs {(C₆H₄NS₂)⁺ [MoOCl₄]^?} with a Mo–N distance of 266 pm. 1 is paramagnetic with a magnetic moment of 1.7 B.M. corresponding to one unpaired electron per formula unit. In the structure of 2 the coordination of the [MoOCl₄]^? ion is expanded by the oxygen atom of a coordinating water molecule. The structure is dominated by hydrogen bonds between the oxygen atoms of the [MoOCl₄·H₂O]^? ions which cause the concatenation of the anions to infinite chains.

In the centrosymmetrical dinuclear complex the copper ions are coordinated in a square-pyramidal arrangement by three nitrogen and two oxygen atoms. The Jahn-Teller effect causes an elongation of the axial bond by approximately 30 pm. The reactions of the pentadentate ligand 2,6-Bis-[(2- methylthiophenyl)-2-azaethenyl]pyridine BMTEP with salts of copper(I), copper(II) and silver(I) yield the complexes [CU₂(BMTEP)₂](PF₆)₂, [Cu(BMTEP)]X₂ (X = BF, C1O) and [Ag(BMTEP)]X (X = PO₂F, ClO). [Cu₂(BMTEP)₂](PF₆)₂ crystallizes from acetone/diisopropyl- ether in form of monoclinic crystals with the space group C2/c, and a = 1833.2(3) pm, b = 2267.30(14) pm, c = 1323.5(2) pm, β= 118.286(5)°, and 2 = 4. In the dinuclear complex cation with the symmetry C₂ the copper ions are tetrahedrally coordinated by two bridging BMTEP ligands. The Cu? Cu distance of 278.3pm can be interpreted with weak Cu? Cu interactions which also manifest itself in a temperature independent paramagnetism of 0.45 B.M. The monomeric silver complex [Ag(BMTEP)]PO₂F₂ crystallizes from acetone/thf in the triclinic space group P1 with a = 768.7(3) pm, b = 1074.0(5) pm, c = 1356.8(5) pm, α = 99.52(2)°, β = 96.83(2)°, γ = 99.83(2)° and Z = 2. The central silver ion is coordinated by one sulfur and three nitrogen atoms of the ligand in a planar, semicircular arrangement. The bond lengths Ag? N = 240.4–261.7 and Ag? S = 257.2 pm are significantly elongated in comparison with single bonds.     

1:1 Adducts of Copper(I) and Silver(I) Halides with the Olefinic Phosphane Tri(1‐cyclohepta‐2, 4, 6‐trienyl)phosphane. Molecular Structures of CuX[P(C7H7)3] (X = Cl,Br), AgCl[P(C7H7)3] and {Cu(μ3‐I)[P(C7H7)3]}4

A suspension of CuX (X = Cl, Br) or AgCl in organic solvents (such as CH₂Cl₂) reacts with P(C₇H₇)₃ ( 1 ) in a molar ratio 1:1 to give the mononuclear adducts CuX[P(C₇H₇)₃] (X = Cl ( 2a ), Br ( 2b )) and AgCl[P(C₇H₇)₃] ( 3a ) which crystallize as isotypic compounds in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (Z = 4). In the crystal, two (of the three) cyclohepta‐2, 4, 6‐trienyl substituents are present in the boat conformation, thus establishing a loose long‐distance interaction between the central double bond and the metal atom. A distorted pseudo‐tetrahedral coordination sphere is assumed to exist around the metal atom, with large P‐M‐X angles of 165.49(8)° ( 2a ), 162.07(7)° ( 2b ) and 168.54(3)° ( 3a ), respectively. The tetrameric 1:1 adduct {Cu(μ₃‐I)[P(C₇H₇)₃]}₄( 2c ) which was obtained from CuI and 1 in boiling ethanol, has also been characterized by X‐ray crystallography (monoclinic space group P2(1)/n, Z = 4); it contains all 12 cyclohepta‐2, 4, 6‐trienyl substituents in the chair conformation. The NMR spectra (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P) of the new complexes 2a‐c and 3a indicate non‐rigid structures in solution. At room temperature, the ³¹P NMR signal of 3a appears as a doublet with an averaged coupling constant, ¹J(Ag, P), of 700.1 Hz, whereas at —45 °C the two expected doublets are clearly discernible with coupling constants ¹J(¹⁰⁷Ag, ³¹P) = 671.0 Hz and ¹J(¹⁰⁹Ag, ³¹P) = 774.4 Hz, respectively.

Concerning the Reaction of Cp₂TiCl₂ with [C(NMe₂)₃][(CO)₄FeC(O)NMe₂] – Crystal Structure of [C(NMe₂)₃]₂[FeCl₄] The title compound forms by the reaction of Cp₂TiCl₂ with [C(NMe₂)₃][(CO)₄FeC(O)NMe₂] in THF solution. It crystallizes in the space group Pbcn with a = 1 566.6(3); b = 976.4(2); c = 1 580.4(4) pm; Z = 4; R = 3.8%. Each [FeCl₄]^2? in is surrounded by eight cations. Two cations each are connected with one Cl atom by relatively short H …? Cl contacts leading to a distortion of the tetrahedral geometry of the anion.

K₄H₂(CO₃)₃ · 1,5 H₂O crystallizes in an OD-structure. The determined superposition structure (orthorhombic, Pbam (no. 55), a = 1 161.8(1) pm, b = 597.0(1) pm, c = 383.85(3) pm, V_EZ = 266.3(1) · 10⁶ pm³, Z = 1, R1(I ≥ 2σ(I)) = 0.035, wR2(I ≥ 2σ(I)) = 0.074) can be derived from the structure of the rubidium compound. The thermal decomposition of the substances is discussed.

Crystal structures and thermal decomposition oftrans-Pd(Creat)2Cl2·2H2O andcis-Pt(Creat)2I2·3H2O

New complexes of the formulaetrans-Pd(Creat)₂Cl₂·2H₂O (I) andcis-Pt(Creat)₂I₂·3H₂O (II) have been prepared and their structures and stabilities studied by X-ray diffraction and thermal analysis. Both compounds have a squareplanar geometry, the two Cl atoms and N1 creatinine atoms are coordinated to Pd intrans configuration, while in compoundII the I atoms and N1 atoms are coordinated incis configuration. In spite of the earlier differences, the TG and DTA curves of the complexes show that their stability is very similar. Since an extended hydrogen bond system is present in the crystals, especially inII, the possible consequences in biological media are discussed briefly.

Trotz früherer Differenzen zeigen die TG- und DTA-Kurven der Komplexe, daß ihre Stabilitäten sehr ähnlich sind. Da besonders inII ein ausgedehntes Wasserstoffbindungssystem vorhanden ist, werden auch mögliche Konsequenzen bezüglich biologischer Wirksamkeit kurz diskutiert.

     

(PPh4)2[Cl2Re(N3S2)(μ‐NSN)(μ‐N≡ReCl3)]2 – ein Rhenium(VII)‐Komplex mit einer Nitrido‐, einer Dinitridosulfato(II)‐ und einer Rhena‐3,5‐dithia‐2,4,6‐triazino‐Funktion

As a by‐product PPh₄[ReNCl₄] is formed. (PPh₄)₂[Cl₂Re^VII(N₃S₂)(μ‐NSN)(μ‐N≡Re^VIICl₃)]₂ ( 1 ): Space group P2₁/c, Z = 2, lattice dimensions at –80 °C: a = 1280.8(2), b = 1017.5(1), c = 2467.8(3) pm, β = 95.04(1)°, R = 0.049. The complex anion of 1 consists of a planar ReN₃S₂‐heterocycle which is connected with the second rhenium atom by a μ‐nitrido bridge as well as by a μ‐dinitridosulfato(II) ligand to form a planar Re₂(N)(NSN) six‐membered heterocycle. This [Cl₂Re(N₃S₂)(μ‐NSN)(μ‐N≡ReCl₃)]^– unit dimerizes via one of the N‐atoms of the (NSN)^4– ligand to give a centrosymmetric Re₂N₂ four‐membered ring.
