Polymeric (NO)3(N2O) n , (NO)3(N2O) n + , and (NO)3(N2O) n − : an interpretation of experimental observations

Semi-empirical and ab initio calculations are reported which provide a possible explanation for reported experimental results on 2-photon ionization of NO containing a few percent of N₂O, which found (NO)₃(N₂O) _n ^+or? clusters to be significantly more abundant than other (NO) _m (N₂O) _n products. It is found that the observed abundances of (NO)₃(N₂O) _n ionic clusters may be accounted for by the existence of covalent cyclic trimers of nitric oxide attached to oligomers of nitrous oxide. The extra stability of NO trimers in the observed clusters appears to arise from (NO) ₃ ⁺ rather than (NO)₃. Attachment of an (N₂O) _n side chain to (NO) ₃ ⁺ occurs exothermically. It is suggested that the addition of N₂O to cyclic-(NO) ₃ ⁺ might provide a means of making a polymer of nitrous oxide, which could have useful properties.

A total of 14060 reflections were collected in the range 1.6827.52°. The final weighted and non-weighted agreement indices, R1=0.0589 and wR2=0.1445 were based on a total of 6953 unique reflections with an R _int value of 0.0542. Compound 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group, P2₁/n (No. 14), with the parameters, a=12.876(3) Å, b=12.212(4) Å, c=17.732(4) Å, =100.40(3)°, V=3640.4(1) ų, and Z=4.

XPS study of the electronic structure of heterometallic complexes [Fe2MO(O2CCH3)6(H2O)3] · 3H2O (M = Co,Ni)

Heterometallic compounds of general formula [Fe ₂ ^III M^IIO(O₂CR)₆(H₂O)₃] · 3H₂O (R = CH₃, M = Co, Ni; R = CCl₃, M = Co, Ni) have been studied by XPS. The compounds have been identified as high-spin complexes with metal atoms in oxidation states M(II) and M(III). Analysis of the XPS data revealed the tendency of the XPS pattern and magnetic parameters of molecules to change with a change in the electronic nature of metal atoms. The assignment is based on the degree of covalence of the M-O bond. In chloro-substituted heterocomplexes, electron density delocalization on the metal atoms with metal-to-ligand charge transfer through three bonds (M-O-C-C) is observed. The substitution in terminal groups leads to the change in the electron density distribution between the carboxylate and terminal groups.

The molecule has a trinuclear structure: three iron atoms occupy the vertices of an equilateral, triangle with an Fe−Fe distance of 3.29 Å and are bonded by the μ₃-oxo and μ-CH₃COO⁻ (O,O′) ligands. To each iron atom, one water molecule is coordinated. Using the obtained values of populations on 3d AO of Fe (d _xy ^1.34 ; d _xz ^1.39 ; d _yz ^1.46 ; ; ) and charges on oxygen atoms (O _c ^−0.5 ; O _ac ^−0.31 ; O _w ^−0.31 ), we estimated the values of isomeric shift and quadrupole splitting (0.75 and 0.70 mm/sec, respectively; these are close to the experimental values of 0.75 and 0.58 mm/sec, (300 K)).

Crystals of [Cr₃O(CH₃COO)₆(H₂O)₃][UO₂(CH₃COO)₃]·3H₂O (I) were synthesized for the first time and studied by X-ray crystallography. The crystals of I are orthorhombic: a = 8.3561(3) ?, b = 16.8421(5) ?, c = 25.7448(9) ?, V = 3623.2(2) ?³, space group P2₁2₁2₁, Z = 4, R = 0.0409. The structure is composed of trinuclear [Cr₃O(CH₃COO)₆(H₂O)₃]⁺ complexes and mononuclear [UO₂(CH₃COO)₃]^? complexes classified with crystal-chemical groups A₃M³B ₆ ² M ₃ ¹ (A = Cr³⁺, M³ = O^2?, B² = CH₃COO^?, M¹ = H₂O) and AB ₃ ⁰¹ (A = UO ₂ ²⁺ , B⁰¹ = CH₃COO^?), respectively. The complexes are bound to each other by electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonds involving outer-sphere water molecules. The results of IR spectroscopic study of I are in good agreement with the structural data for the crystal.     

Gas phase reactions of Cl2O with X−(D2O)n=0–4 (X = O,OD, O2, DO2, and O3)

The reactions of Cl₂O with the cluster ions X⁻(D₂O)_n=0–4 (X = O, OD, O₂, DO₂, and O₃) were studied in a He buffer gas at temperatures within the range 171–298 K and pressures of 0.27–0.51 Torr, using a flow-tube apparatus. All ions were found to react with Cl₂O at rates slower than predicted by the collision rate and the charge center was transferred from X⁻ to Cl⁻ or ClO⁻. The primary product ions Cl⁻(DOCl) and ClO⁻(DOCl) were observed to react further to produce the ions Cl₃O⁻ and Cl₃O₂⁻. The rate constants for the observed reactions are reported and the role that thermodynamics plays in determining possible reaction channels is discussed.     

Synthesis,open-framework structure and thermal behaviour of ammonium tin oxalate,Sn2(NH4)2(C2O4)3·3H2O

A new mixed ammonium tin oxalate trihydrate, Sn₂(NH₄)₂(C₂O₄)₃·3H₂O, has been prepared from evaporation of a solution of tin and ammonium oxalates. Its crystal structure has been solved from single-crystal diffraction data. The symmetry is orthorhombic, space group Pnma (No. 62), cell dimensions a=15.1821(5) Å, b=11.7506(2) Å, c=10.8342(3) Å, and Z=4. The structure consists of macroanionic layers built from [Sn(C₂O₄)₃]^2– groups. The SnO₆ polyhedron can be described as a pseudo pentagonal bipyramid, with the lone pair of electrons presumably occupying one apex. The resulting framework displays holes in which the water molecules and ammonium groups are located. The thermal behaviour of the mixed ammonium tin oxalate has been investigated with temperature-dependent X-ray powder diffraction and conventional thermal analysis. The degradation process has been completely explained, as well as that of oxammite, a phase always obtained in the preparations. The thermal decomposition of oxammite leads to (NH₄)₂C₂O₄ and a new acid salt, NH₄HC₂O₄. The mixed ammonium tin oxalate decomposes successively into the amorphous compounds, Sn₂(NH₄)₂(C₂O₄)₃·H₂O and Sn₂(NH₄)₂(C₂O₄)₃, SnC₂O₄ and, finally, cassiterite SnO₂.

These sheets are linked only by a fourth type ofMe ^2+[6] atom. All coordination polyhedra deviate significantly from their ideal shapes, bond lengths within the extremly distortedMe(4)O₆ polyhedra range from 1.983 (2) Å to 2.403 (2) Å in Co₃(SeO₃)₃·H₂O and from 1.987 (4) Å to 2.301 (3) Å in the Ni compound, O-Se-O bond angles were found between 92.8 (2)° and 104.9 (1)°. Hydrogen bond lengths are 2.802 (3)Å and 2.600 (4)Å in the Co compound, and 2.762 (6) Å and 2.561 (6) Å in Ni₃(SeO₃)₃·H₂O. The latter is one of the shortest known hydrogen bonds donated by a water molecule.

The solid-state thermal decomposition of Sr3[La(C2O4)3(H2O)2]2·11H2O

Strontium(II)diaquatris(oxalato)lanthanate(III)unidecahydrate, Sr₃[La(C₂O₄)₃(H₂O)₂]₂·11H₂O, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental, IR and electronic spectral studies. Thermal studies (TG, DTG and DTA) in air showed that all the crystal and coordinated water molecules are removed at ca. 225 °C. The final end product at 1,000 °C was shown to be a mixture of mainly SrCO₃, Sr₃La₄O₉ and La₂Sr₂O₅ along with oxides and carbides of both the metal, through the formation of an intermediate mixture of likely SrC₂O₄ and La₂(C₂O₄)_2.8 at 282 °C, and SrCO₃ and La₂O(CO₃)₂ at 540 °C. The multi-step dehydration and decomposition of the compound has been explored from the DSC study in nitrogen up to 670 °C, and the evaluated kinetic parameters are discussed.

Two novel zeotype crystals, K4[Cr3O(H2O)3(OOCH)6]2[P2W18O62]·9.5H2O(1) and K4 [Cr3O(H2O)3·X-ray single crystal diffraction. Crystal data: C12H43O103.5K4Cr6P2W18(1), hexagonal P6(3)/m, a=1.5895(2)nm, b=1.5895(2) nm, c=2.1620(4) nm, α=90°, β=90°, γ =120°, V=4.7305(13) nm3, Z=2,R1 =0. 0726, wR2=0. 1542; C6H57O98K4Cr3CoP2W17(2), hexagonal P6(3)/mmc, a=1. 61328 (3) nm, b=1.61328(3) nm, c=2. 06613 (9) nm, α=90°,β=90°, γ=120°, V=4. 6570(2) nm3, Z=2, R1=0. 0377,wR2 =0.1070. These crystals were characterized using elemental analysis, IR, TG-DTA, and XRD. It was found that the polyoxometalate anions maintained Wells-Dawson structure for crystal 1 and lacunary Wells-Dawson structure for crystal 2. Thermal analysis showed that crystal 1 lost the water of crystallization at 132 ℃, whereas crystal 2 lost the water of crystallization at 100 ℃. Crystal 1 could reversibly desorb and adsorb water molecules and its crystal structure could be restored after re-adsorbing the water molecules. It was also found from the XRD patterns that the void size of crystal 2 is smaller compared with that of crystal 1, which is attributed to the higher anion charges.

A new indium oxalate, [In₂(C₂O₄)₃(H₂O)₃]·7H₂O, with a layered structure has been synthesised from precipitation methods at room temperature. It crystallises with a monoclinic symmetry, space group P2₁/c (No. 14), a=8.7456(1) Å, b=11.1479(2) Å, c=21.9376(4) Å, β=112.1(1)°, V=1979.98(6) ų and Z=4.

The layers are built from chains with two different sequences of indium atoms and bichelating oxalate groups. Two independent indium atoms are present in the structure with two coordination polyhedra, i.e., InO₈ as a distorted square-based antiprism and InO₇ as a nearly regular pentagonal-based bipyramid. The thermal decomposition has been studied in situ by temperature dependent X-ray diffraction and thermogravimety. The final product is nanocrystalline indium oxide. The microstructure of the oxide has been characterised with both the Voigt/Langford method based on the integral breadth and the whole pattern fitting approach. The size of the isotropic crystallites increases from 322 to 924 Å, while microstrains decrease, in the annealing temperature range 500–750 °C.
