123Sb NQR and 19F NMR study of potassium,rubidium, and cesium heptafluorodiantimonates(iii)

The dynamics of crystal lattices of potassium, rubidium, and cesium heptafluorodiantimonates(iii) and specific features of internal rotations of the Sb₂F₇ fluoride groups in these compounds were studied using ¹²³Sb NQR in the temperature interval from 77 to 325 K and ¹⁹F NMR in the temperature interval from 240 to 470 K in combination with X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analyses. The distinctions in the dynamic behavior of the fluoride ions with changing the size (polarizability) of outer-sphere cations are discussed. The structural phase transition in CsSb₂F₇ was revealed at 425—430 K accompanied by the appearance of a high ion conductivity ( 1.3·10^–3 S cm^–1 at 450 K). A second type phase change can exist at 220—270 K.     

Intramolecular mobility and phase transitions in ammonium oxofluoroniobates (NH4)2NbOF5 and (NH4)3NbOF6, a NMR and DFT study

Molecular structure, ionic mobility and phase transitions in six- and seven-coordinated ammonium oxofluoroniobates (NH₄)₂NbOF₅ and (NH₄)₃NbOF₆ were studied by ¹⁹F, ¹H NMR and DFT calculations. Equatorial fluorine atoms (F_eq) in [NbOF₅]²⁻ and [NbOF₆]³⁻ are characterized by high ¹⁹F NMR chemical shifts while axial fluorine atoms (F_ax) have those essentially lower. The high-temperature ionic mobility in (NH₄)₂NbOF₅ does not stimulate the ligand exchange F_eq ↔ F_ax, whereas it is observed in (NH₄)₃NbOF₆ as pseudorotation typical for seven-coordinated polyhedra. The transformation of pentagonal bipyramidal structure (BP) of [NbOF₆]³⁻ into capped trigonal prismatic (CTP) one takes place during the phase transition (PT) at 260 K. The PT of order-disorder type in (NH₄)₂NbOF₅ is accompanied by transition of anionic sublattice to a rigid state. The ¹⁹F and ¹H NMR data corroborate the independent motions of NH₄ groups and anionic polyhedra in (NH₄)₂NbOF₅ while they are coordinated in (NH₄)₃NbOF₆.

New results in the ammonolysis of hexafluoro-cyclo-triphosphazene: Crystal structure of P3N3F5–NH–P3N3F4NH2

The reaction of hexafluoro-cyclo-triphosphazene P₃N₃F₆ with ammonia in acetonitrile has been studied. New compounds, (2-imino-2,4,4,6,6-pentafluoro-2λ⁵,4λ⁵,6λ⁵-cyclo-triphosphaza-1,3,5-trienyl)-2-amino-4,4,6,6-tetrafluoro-2λ⁵,4λ⁵,6λ⁵-cyclo-triphosphaza-1,3,5-triene, P₃N₃F₅–NH–P₃N₃F₄NH₂ (2) and cis and trans isomers of non-gem-2,4-diamino-2,4,6,6-tetrafluoro-2λ⁵,4λ⁵,6λ⁵-cyclo-triphosphaza-1,3,5-triene, P₃N₃F₄(NH₂)₂ (4, 5)_, were detected by GC/MS, and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy in reaction mixtures. X-ray diffraction analysis of P₃N₃F₅–NH–P₃N₃F₄NH₂ (2) revealed two conformational polymorphs, 2A and 2B, the latter being built up of two different conformers that were further denoted as 2B_a (the same as the single conformer in 2A) and 2B_b. The compound 2 was characterized by spectroscopic methods and its 2D potential energy surface (PES) was described by density functional theory computations depending on two dihedral angles. The calculated PES spans over 30 kJ/mol in energy including 8 local minima and all first and second order saddle points. The occurrence of the two experimentally observed conformers 2B_a and 2B_b seems to be governed by crystal packing effects.

Conclusions We have studied the temperature dependence of the NQR parameters of¹²³Sb and⁸¹Br in the range 77–360 K for the complexes of MSbBrF₃ (M=Na, Cs, NH₄) and Cs₃Sb₂Br₉. We have established the temperature regions for which piezoelectric properties appear in the crystal hydrate NaSbBrF₃.H₂O, and in the compounds MSbBrF₃ (M=Na, NH₄) and Cs₃Sb₂Br₉ anomalous changes appear in the dependences of the quadrupole coupling constant, the asymmetry parameter of the electric field gradient for the antimony atoms and the resonance frequency of the bromine atoms.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1501–1504, July, 1987.     

Nuclear quadrupole resonances of α-(CH3)2 TeX2 (X=Cl, Br, I) and (CH3)2 TeI4

NQR spectra were observed for α-(CH₃)₂ TeX₂ (X=Cl, Br, I) and (CH₃)₂ TeI₄ at various temperatures. The two ⁸¹Br NQR lines were observed above 110 K in α-(CH₃)₂TeBr₂. The characteristic temperature dependence of the ¹²⁷I NQR line in α-(CH₃)₂ TeI. can be explained by the 3c—4e bond of the linear I---Te---I group. The positive temperatures dependence of the lowest ¹²⁷I NQR line in (CH₃)₂TeI₄ is discussed on the basis of the electron population calculated from Townes—Dailey treatment.     

Spectroscopic properties of guanidinium zinc sulphate [C(NH2)3]2Zn(SO4)2 and ab initio calculations of [C(NH2)3]2 and HC(NH2)3

Raman and FTIR spectra of guanidinium zinc sulphate [C(NH₂)₃]₂Zn(SO₄)₂ are recorded and the spectral bands assignment is carried out in terms of the fundamental modes of vibration of the guanidinium cations and sulphate anions. The analysis of the spectrum reveals distorted SO₄²⁻ tetrahedra with distinct S–O bonds. The distortion of the sulphate tetrahedra is attributed to Zn–O–S–O–Zn bridging in the structure as well as hydrogen bonding. The CN₃ group is planar which is expressed in the twofold symmetry along the C–N (1) vector. Spectral studies also reveal the presence of hydrogen bonds in the sample. The vibrational frequencies of [C(NH₂)₃]₂ and HC(NH₂)₃ are computed using Gaussian 03 with HF/6-31G* as basis set.

Synthesis and Structure of Sn(NH₂)₂F₂ Diamido-difluoro-tin Sn(NH₂)₂F₂ can be produced by ammonolysis from (NH₄)₂SnF₆ at 613 K. The compound is a product from Sn(NH₃)₂F₄ formed during the ammonolysis reaction. Sn(NH₂)₂F₂ crystallizes in space group C2/m (No. 12) with lattice constants a = 1070.18(7), b = 325.38(3) pm, c = 505.02(3) pm and β = 105.728(3)° (V = 169.271(6) · 10⁶ pm³) containing two formula units per unit cell. Data refinement by the Rietveld method yields a Bragg R-value of R_Bragg = 0.0514 (Profile R-value R_wp = 0.177). Tin is octahedrally coordinated by two fluorine atoms and for amido groups. The octahedra are connected to one-dimensional strings by edge sharing. The NH₂ groups are in the bridging position whilst the fluorine atoms are terminal.

Gas phase and solution state stability of complexes L…M, where M = Cu, Ni, or Zn and L = R−C(O)NHOH (R = H, NH2, CH3, CF3, or Phenyl)

The structure and gas-phase metal affinities (M = Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Zn²⁺) of formohydroxamic acid derivatives R–C(O)NHOH (R = H, NH₂, CH₃, CF₃ and Phenyl) were studied using the B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) method of DFT theory. In order to evaluate the conformational behavior of these systems in water, we carried out CPCM-SCRF optimization calculations at the B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) levels of theory. The obtained optimized geometries and interaction affinities of the gas and solution phase were compared. The following order of stability was found for ionic complexes of the transition metals: Cu²⁺ > Ni(t)²⁺ > Zn²⁺. The same stability order would be expected according to the Irving–Williams order of stability constants. The high-spin complexes of the Ni²⁺ were more stable than the low-spin complexes. The solvent effect reduced the observed relative stability of individual metallic complexes of substituted hydroxamic acids.     

Hydrolysis of ammonium oxofluorotungstates: A F, O and W NMR study

Fluorine-19 and natural abundance ¹⁷O and ¹⁸³W NMR spectroscopy were employed for the characterization of aqueous solutions of (NH₄)₂WO₂F₄ and (NH₄)₃WO₃F₃. Dissolution of the (NH₄)₂WO₂F₄ complex is accompanied by its partial acid hydrolysis to give the trans(mer)-dimer, [W₂O₅F₆]⁴⁻, and unreacted cis-[WO₂F₄]²⁻. The cis(fac)-[W₂O₅F₆]⁴⁻ anion is the major soluble product resulting from the alkaline hydrolysis of (NH₄)₂WO₂F₄ along with the isolation of the solid (NH₄)₂WO₃F₂. In addition, the edge-bridging dimer, [W₂O₆F₄]⁴⁻, and the cyclic trimer, [W₃O₉F₆]⁶⁻, are also suggested as hydrolysis products. Decomposition of (NH₄)₃WO₃F₃ occurs in aqueous solution to give NH₄WO₃F.

Synthesis and structural investigation of the compounds containing HF2 anions: Ca(HF2)2, Ba4F4(HF2)(PF6)3 and Pb2F2(HF2)(PF6)

Three new compounds Ca(HF₂)₂, Ba₄F₄(HF₂)(PF₆)₃ and Pb₂F₂(HF₂)(PF₆) were obtained in the system metal(II) fluoride and anhydrous HF (aHF) acidified with excessive PF₅. The obtained polymeric solids are slightly soluble in aHF and they crystallize out of their aHF solutions. Ca(HF₂)₂ was prepared by simply dissolving CaF₂ in a neutral aHF. It represents the second known compound with homoleptic HF environment of the central atom besides Ba(H₃F₄)₂. The compounds Ba₄F₄(HF₂)(PF₆)₃ and Pb₂F₂(HF₂)(PF₆) represent two additional examples of the formation of a polymeric zigzag ladder or ribbon composed of metal cation and fluoride anion (MF⁺)_n besides PbF(AsF₆), the first isolated compound with such zigzag ladder. The obtained new compounds were characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction method and partly by Raman spectroscopy.

Degradation thermique et etude vibrationnelle de MII(NH4)4(P3O9)2x4H2O(M II=Cu2+, Ni2+, Co2+)

We have studied the thermal behaviour under atmospheric pressure of isotypic tetrahydrate cyclotriphosphates M^II(NH₄)₄(P₃O₉)₂x4H₂O (M ^II=Cu, Ni and Co), between 25 and 1400°C, by X-ray diffraction, thermal analyses (TG and DTA) and infrared spectrometry. This study shows that the series of the compounds M^II(NH₄)₄(P₃O₉)₂x4H₂O (M ^II=Cu, Ni and Co) after elimination of water, in two different stages, and ammonia leads, at 400°C to cyclotetraphosphate M₂ ^IIP₄O₁₂ crystallized and to a thermal residue with a formula H₄P₄O₁₂ which undergoes under a thermal degradation by evolving water and pentoxide phosphorus. The kinetic characteristics of the dehydration and elimination of ammonia have been determinated. The vibrational spectra of Cu(NH₄)₄(P₃O₉)₂x4H₂O were examined and interpreted, in the domain of the valency frequencies, on the basis of the crystalline structure of its isotypic compound Co(NH₄)₄(P₃O₉)₂x4H₂O whose cycle has the site symmetry C₁, of our results of the calculation of the IR frequencies and the successive isotopic substitutions of the equivalent atoms (3P, 3Oi and 6Oe belonging to the P₃Oi₃Oe₆ ring) of the P₃O₉ ³⁻ cycle with high symmetry D_3h.
