The crystal structures [Lu(CH₃COO)₃: orthorhombic, a = 825.85(8), b = 1 398.1(2), c = 823.9(1) pm, V_m = 143.24(3) cm³/mol, space group Ccm2₁ (No. 36), Z = 4, R = 0.035, R_w = 0.030; Ho(CH₃COO)₃: monoclinic, a = 1 109.1(3), b = 2 916.3(10), c = 786.8(2) pm, β = 131.90(1)°, V_m = 142.58(8) cm³/mol, space group C2/c (No. 15), Z = 8, R = 0.039, R_w = 0.039, R_w = 0.026] were determined from four-circle diffractometer data sets. The structures consist of one-dimensional infinite chains built up by bridging acetate ions. Ho³⁺ is coordinated by 8 oxygen atoms, whereas Lu³⁺ has only 7 nearest oxygen neighbours. The chains are stacked parallel to the [001] direction. Isotypic compounds with Tm? Lu (type 1) and Sm? Er, Y (type 2) were prepared as powders and characterized by X-ray powder patterns. Thermoanalytical investigations (DTA, Guinier-Simon technique) of all compounds have shown that there is a first-order phase transition at 180°C (type 2) and in the range of 230–255°C (type 1). The high-temperature phase crystallizes with the known Sc(CH₃COO)₃ structure (type 0) where the rare earth cations are surrounded by 6 oxygen atoms. In the case of the type 1 compounds the phase transition is reversible.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of [WNCl₃ · NCPh]₄ · 3 CH₂Cl₂ The adduct of tungsten nitride trichloride with benzonitrile, [WNCl₃ · NCPh]₄, is formed by the reaction of N,N,N'-tris(trimethylsilyl)benzamidine and tungsten hexachloride in CCl₄ solution. It forms red crystal needles and was characterized by its IR spectrum and an X-ray crystal structure determination (1983 unique observed reflexions, R = 0.075). Crystal data: a = 1464.8, b = 1902.6, c = 2033.8 pm, β = 102.27°, space group C2/c, Z = 4. In the [WNCl₃ · NCPh]₄ molecule the tungsten atoms were located at the vertices of a square and are linked with one another via linear W?N? W nitrido bridges with alternating short and long bonds having average lengths of 166 and 211 pm. The N atoms of the benzonitrile ligands are in the positions trans to the W?N bonds at distances of 237 pm.     

Synthese,Schwingungsspektren und Kristallstrukturen der Nitratoargentate (Ph4P)[Ag(NO3)2(CH3CN)]·CH3CN und (Ph4P)[Ag2(NO3)3]

Synthesis, Vibrational Spectra, and Crystal Structures of the Nitrato Argentates (Ph₄P)[Ag(NO₃)₂(CH₃CN)]·CH₃CN and (Ph₄P)[Ag₂(NO₃)₃] Tetraphenylphosphonium bromide reacts in acetonitril suspension with excess silver nitrate to give (Ph₄P)[Ag(NO₃)₂(CH₃CN)]·CH₃CN ( 1 ), whereas (Ph₄P)[Ag₂(NO₃)₃] ( 2 ) is obtained in a long‐time reaction from (Ph₄P)Br and excess AgNO₃ in dichloromethane suspension. Both complexes were characterized by vibrational spectroscopy (IR, Raman) and by single crystal structure determinations. 1 : Space group P2₁/c, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at 193 K: a = 1781.5(3), b = 724.8(1), c = 2224.2(3) pm, β = 96.83(1)°, R₁ = 0.0348. 1 contains isolated complex units [Ag(NO₃)₂(CH₃CN)]^?, in which the silver atom is coordinated by the chelating nitrate groups and by the nitrogen atom of the solvated CH₃CN molecule with a short Ag—N distance of 220.7(4) pm. 2 : Space group I2, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at 193 K: a = 1753.4(4), b = 701.7(1), c = 2105.5(4) pm, R₁ = 0.072. In the polymeric anions [Ag₂(NO₃)₃]^? each silver atom is coordinated in a chelating manner by one nitrate group and by two oxygen atoms of two bridging nitrate ions. In addition, each silver atom forms a weak π‐bonding contact with a phenyl group of the (Ph₄P)⁺ ions with shortest Ag···C separations of 266 and 299 pm, respectively, indicating a (4+1) coordination of silver 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%.     

Erdalkali-Fluoromanganate(III): BaMnF5 · H2O und SrMnF5 · H2O

Alkaline Earth Fluoromanganates(III): BaMnF₅ · H₂O and SrMnF₅ · H₂O Solid BaF₂ or SrF₂ forms with solutions of Mn³⁺ in aqueous hydrofluoric acid precipitates of hitherto unknown BaMnF₅ · H₂ and SrMnF₅ · H₂O respectively. X-ray structure determination on single crystals of both isotypic compounds (space group P2₁/m, Z = 2; BaMnF₅ · H₂O: a = 537.0(3), b = 817.2(2), c = 628.0(4) pm β = 111.17(5)°, R_w = 0.035 for 1403 reflections; SrMnF₅ · H₂O: a = 510.8(1), b = 792.0(2), c = 610.6(1) pm, β = 110.24(1)° R_w = 0.068 for 539 reflections) reveal pure [MnF₆]^3? octahedra connected with each other to infinite chains by sharing trans corners. The H₂O molecules are coordinated to the alkaline earth ions only and form weak O? H…F hydrogen bonds. The pronounced weakening of the Mn? F bonds within the chain direction (Mn? F 2X 212.7(1)/210.8(5) pm, 2X 183.8(3)/181.8(9) pm, 2X 186.9(2)/187.2(8) pm) may be due by halves to the Jahn-Teller-effect as can be deduced by bond valence calculations.
