Towards Polysulfuric Acids: The Hydrogentrisulfate Anion [HS3O10]− in A[HS3O10] (A=Na,K, Rb)

The reaction of Na₂SO₄ and K₂SO₄ with fuming sulfuric acid (65 % SO₃) yielded colorless extremely sensitive crystals of Na[HS₃O₁₀] (monoclinic; P2₁/n (No. 14); Z=4; a=707.36(2), b=1378.56(4), c=848.10(3) pm; β=94.817(1)°; V=824.09(4) ? 10⁶ pm³) and K[HS₃O₁₀] (orthorhombic; Pccn (No. 56); Z=4; a=1057.16(3), b=807.81(2), c=897.57(2) pm; V=766.51(3) ? 10⁶ pm³). The analogous rubidium compound Rb[HS₃O₁₀] (orthorhombic; Pnma (No. 62); Z=4; a=891.43(3), b=1095.34(4), c=839.37(3) pm; V=819.58(5) ? 10⁶ pm³) originates from the reaction of Rb₂CO₃ and SO₃. All of the different structures contain the hitherto unknown anion [HS₃O₁₀]^? and are stamped by strong hydrogen bonds linking the anions either to dimers or chains. Theoretical investigations by DFT methods give further insight in the structural characteristics of [HS₃O₁₀]^?. The preparation of the [HS₃O₁₀]^? anion can be seen as an important milestone on our way to the still elusive polysulfuric acids.     

Ba2[Pd(HS2O7)2(S3O10)2]: A Heteroleptic Polysulfatopalladate

The oxidation of elemental palladium with oleum (65 % SO₃) in the presence of barium carbonate in torch‐sealed glass ampoules at 180 °C leads to yellow single crystals of the heteroleptic palladate Ba₂[Pd(HS₂O₇)₂(S₃O₁₀)₂] (triclinic, P ; Z=1; a=884.18(3), b=927.68(3), c=938.77(4) pm; α=60.473(1), β=80.266(2), γ=87.746(2)°). The crystal structure shows the Pd²⁺ ions in a square‐planar coordination of oxygen atoms of two hydrogendisulfate as well as of two trisulfate anions. The compound is the first example of the rarely seen S₃O₁₀^2? and HS₂O₇^? anions acting as ligands in a complex anion and, moreover, the first heteroleptic polysulfatometallate known so far. The complex formation leads to a stabilization of the trisulfate anion relative to its uncoordinated congener. Ba₂[Pd(HS₂O₇)₂(S₃O₁₀)₂] has been further characterized by vibrational spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations. Thermal analyses by means of thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) measurements show that the compound decomposes to yield elemental palladium and BaSO₄.     

Synthesis and structure of asymmetric zirconium-substituted silicotungstates, [Zr6O2(OH)4(H2O)3(beta-SiW10O37)3]14- and [Zr4O2(OH)2(H2O)4(beta-SiW10O37)2]10-

The reaction of ZrCl4 with [gamma-SiW10O36]8- in a potassium acetate buffer results in two different products depending on the reactant ratios. The trimeric species [Zr6O2(OH)4(H2O)3(beta-SiW10O37)3]14- (1) consists of three beta23-SiW10O37 units linked by an unprecedented Zr6O2(OH)4(H2O)3 cluster with C1 point group symmetry. The dimeric species [Zr4O2(OH)2(H2O)4(beta-SiW10O37)2]10- (2) consists of beta22- and beta12-SiW10O37 units sandwiching a Zr4O2(OH)2(H2O)4 cluster, which also has C1 symmetry. Polyanion 1 contains more zirconium centers than any other polyoxometalate known to date.

[Ni(H2O)6]2[Na(H2O)3]2[V10O28]·4H2O,bis(nickel hexahydrate) bis(sodium trihydrate) decavanadate tetrahydrate

Polyoxometallates are capable of including transition metals in their crystal structures as either discrete cations or heteroatoms. The title compound crystallizes with triclinic symmetry and consists of a centrosymmetric [V₁₀O₂₈]^6? anion, a trimeric {[Na(H₂O)₃][Ni(H₂O)₆][Na(H₂O)₃]}⁴⁺ cation, an [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ cation and four water molecules of crystallization. The compound possesses two Ni atoms (each on independent inversion centres), one as a discrete cation and one in a disodium–nickel trimeric cation involved in the one‐dimensional polycation–polyanion hybrid polymer. The polymers are bound together via hydrogen bonds to the water mol­ecules and the nickel(II) hexahydrate cation. Several structures of decavanadate compounds having transition metal atoms, monovalent cations and [V₁₀O₂₈]^6? anions in the ratio 2:2:1 have been reported previously. However, the present compound differs from these in its arrangement of monovalent cations and transition metal atoms.     

Hydroxoverbindungen. 10. Über die Natriumoxohydroxostannate(II) Na4[Sn4O(OH)10] und Na2[Sn2O(OH)4]

Hydroxo Compounds. 10. The Sodium Oxohydroxostannates(II) Na₄[Sn₄O(OH)₁₀] and Na₂[Sn₂O(OH)₄] Na₄[Sn₄O(OH)₁₀] = Na₄[Sn(OH)₃]₂[Sn₂O(OH)₄] ( I ) and Na₂[Sn₂O(OH)₄] ( II ) have now been doubtlessly characterized as the first Na-hydroxostannates(II). I crystallizes monoclinic in P2₁/n (a = 1522.4(5) pm, b = 830.0(2) pm, c = 1276.0(3) pm, β = 104.8(2)°, Z = 4, R = 0.047, 1137 I_hkl); II crystallizes orthorhombic in P2₁2₁2₁ (a = 1450(2) pm, b = 1665(2) pm, c = 590.7(8) pm, Z = 8, R = 0.042, 1208 I_hkl). II is identical with the compound which was described up to now as “Na[Sn(OH)₃]”. The new compounds contain the complex anions [Sn(OH)₃]^? and [Sn₂O(OH)₄]^2?, whose structures are now proved. The oxotetrahydroxo-distannate(II) anion [Sn₂O(OH)₄]^2? exhibits a syn-conformation with respect to the projection along the (Sn? Sn) vector. The two compounds crystallize with pronounced layer structures, which show direct topotactical relations with one another as well as with SnO. This relates closely to the fast formation of SnO from crystals of I and II .     

Structural and Thermal Studies on the Ion-pairs [Co(NH3)6]5[HV10O28]3·18H2O and [Co(NH3)6][V2O6OH]

Two cobalt hexammine-vanadate ion-pair complexes have been prepared; one in acid medium (pH≈4) and the other in alkaline medium (pH≈10). The formed complexes were characterized by their elemental analysis, IR and XRD techniques. The complexes were subjected to thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses. The IR study suggests that the formed complexes were of the ion-pair type, while that of the thermally decomposed compounds revealed the resolution of the originally present broad V=O and V-O-V bands. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

A New Type of Methacrylate-Substituted Oxozirconium Clusters: [Zr3O(OR)5(OMc)5]2 and [Zr3O(OR)3(OMc)7]2

Summary.  The new clusters Zr₆O₂(OBu)₁₀(OMc)₁₀ and Zr₆O₂(OMe)₄(OBu)₂(OMc)₁₄ were prepared from Zr(OBu)₄ and methacrylic acid. For the preparation of Zr₆O₂(OMe)₄(OBu)₂(OMc)₁₄, partial exchange of the butoxy groups is necessary. The clusters consist of two Zr₃ subunits that dimerize via alkoxide bridges. The structures are of the same type, except that four terminal butoxy ligands in Zr₆O₂(OBu)₁₀(OMc)₁₀ are exchanged for chelating methacrylate ligands in Zr₆O₂(OMe)₄(OBu)₂(OMc)₁₄.

The crystal structures of K[HS₂O₇], [NH₄][HS₂O₇], [NO][HS₂O₇], and Rb[HS₂O₇] show the [HS₂O₇]^– ions linked into dimers by strong hydrogen bonds. Contrastingly, in the crystal structure of Cs[HS₂O₇] the [HS₂O₇]^– ions are connected to infinite chains. Raman spectra were recorded for M[HS₂O₇] (M = K, Rb, Cs).
