Crystal structures of the organic metals (ET)2[Hg(SCN)Cl2] and (ET)2[Hg(SCN)2Br]

The compositions and structures of two new organic metals based on ET [where ET = bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene], viz., (ET)₂[Hg(SCN)Cl₂], with a metal-dielectric transition temperature (T_m-d) of 35°K, and (ET)₂[Hg(SCN)₂Br], with T_m-d = 140°K, were established by x-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal structures of the investigated compounds are similar to the structure of the previously studied organic metal (ET)₂[Hg(SCN)₂Cl] with T_m-d = 50°K. The principal crystallographic data for (ET)₂[Hg(SCN)Cl₂] are as follows: a = 36.64(1), b = 8.300(4), c = 11.798(1) Å, = 89.91(3)°, V = 3588.1(9) ų, space group Cc, Z = 4, d_calc = 2.05 g/cm³. The principal crystallographic data for (ET)₂[Hg(SCN)₂Br] are as follows: a = 37.088(14), b = 8.338(3), c = 11.738(5) Å, = 89.71(3)°, V = 3629.6(8) ų, space group C2/c, Z = 8, d_calc = 2.15 g/cm³. A characteristic feature of the crystal structure of the investigated compounds is alternation of the anion and cation layers along the a axis of the crystal. In the cation layer of the k type the ET are interconnected by shortened S...S intermolecular contacts (3.39–3.58 Å). The [Hg(SCN)_3–nX_n]^– anions (X = Cl, Br; n = 1, 2) form polymeric chains with one or two bridged SCN groups. A tendency for a decrease in the metal-dielectric transition temperature with a decrease in the volume of the anion is detected in the (ET)₂[Hg(SCN)_3–nX_n] salts, where X = Cl and Br, and n = 1 and 2.Institute of Chemical Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences, 142432 Chernogolovka.

trans—和cis—(η~5—C_5Me_5)2Mo_2(μ_2—S)_2(t—O)_2[Me=CH_3—]的合成和结构

trans—(η~5—C_5Me_5)_2Mo_2(μ_2—S)_2(t—O)_2[Ⅰ]和cis—(η~5—C_5Me_5)Mo_2(μ_2—O)_2(t—O)_2(Ⅱ]是由Mo(CO)_6和C_5(CH_3)_5H的反应产物(η~5—C_5Me_5)_2Mo_2(CO)_4与(CH_2)_3S反应中同时得到的。晶体[Ⅰ]属四方晶系,空间群为P4_2/n,单胞参数;a=b=16.317,c=8.463,V=2253.16,Z=4。晶体[Ⅱ]亦属四方晶系,空间群为P42_1c,单胞参数:a=b=12.101,c=15.425,V=2258.54,Z=4 [Ⅰ]和[Ⅱ]分子分别具有C_1—T和C_2—2对称性。如把C_5Me_5-看成具有理想的园柱体对称性,则它们分别具有C_(2h)—2/m和C_(2v)—mm2对称性。在[Ⅰ]中Mo_2(μ_2—S)_2为菱形平面结构,而[Ⅱ]中则畸变成“蝶式”结构。由两个钼原子之间的距离(2.902和2.808)可以看出钼一钼间作用属于单键的范围内。所以它们是具有金属单键的双钼金属簇的两个立体异构体。     

Ultrafast excited-state dynamics preceding a ligand trans-cis isomerization of fac-[Re(Cl)(CO)3(t-4-styrylpyridine)2] and fac-[Re(t-4-styrylpyridine)(CO)3(2,2'-bipyridine)]+

UV-vis absorption and resonance Raman spectra of the complexes fac-[Re(Cl)(CO)3(stpy)2] and fac-[Re(stpy)(CO)3(bpy)]+ (stpy = t-4-styrylpyridine, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) show that their lowest absorption bands are dominated by stpy-localized intraligand (IL) pi pi* transitions. For the latter complex a Re --> bpy transition contributes to the low-energy part of the absorption band. Optical population of the 1IL excited state of fac-[Re(Cl)(CO)3(stpy)2] is followed by an intersystem crossing (< or =0.9 ps) to an 3IL state with the original planar trans geometry of the stpy ligand. This state undergoes a approximately 90 degrees rotation around the stpy C=C bond with a 11 ps time constant. An electronically excited species with an approximately perpendicular orientation of the phenyl and pyridine rings of the stpy ligand is formed. Conversion to the ground state and isomerization occurs in the nanosecond range. Intraligand excited states of fac-[Re(stpy)(CO)3(bpy)]+ show the same behavior. Moreover, it was found that the planar reactive 3IL excited state is rapidly and efficiently populated after optical excitation into the Re --> bpy 1MLCT excited state. A 1MLCT --> 3MLCT intersystem crossing takes place first with a time constant of 0.23 ps followed by an intramolecular energy transfer from the ReI(CO)3(bpy) chromophore to a stpy-localized 3IL state with a 3.5 ps time constant. The fast rate ensures complete conversion. Coordination of the stpy ligand to the ReI center thus switches the ligand trans-cis isomerization mechanism from singlet to triplet (intramolecular sensitization) and, in the case of fac-[Re(stpy)(CO)3(bpy)]+, opens an indirect pathway for population of the reactive 3IL excited state via MLCT states.     

Magnetostructural relationship in the spin-crossover complex t-{Fe(abpt)2[N(CN)2]2}: polymorphism and disorder phenomenon

t-{Fe(abpt)(2)[N(CN)(2)](2)} [abpt = 4-amino-3,5-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole] is an intriguing spin-crossover system that crystallizes in two polymorphs. Polymorph A is paramagnetic; its crystal structure consists of a single molecule located at the center of inversion symmetry. Polymorph B, on the other hand, exhibits a rather complicated two-step-like spin transition; its crystal structure consists of two symmetry-independent molecules. The crystal structure of polymorph B has been derived in the different spin states: above the high-temperature step (300 K), between the two steps (90 K), below the incomplete low-temperature step (50 K), in the light-induced metastable state (15 K), in the thermally quenched metastable state (15 K), and after relaxation from the quenched state (15 K). The correlation between the structure and magnetic properties is precisely established, allowing the complicated magnetic behavior of polymorph B to be well understood. A unique order-disorder phase transition, resulting in a modulation of the metastable state structures, is detected for the first time on such spin-transition compounds. The modulation of the structure originates from a particular ordering of the dicyanamide ligand at one of the two Fe sites.     

Synthesis, structure and photochemical properties of r-1, c-2, t-3, t-4-tetra[2-(5-phenyloxazolyl)]cyclobutane

It was found that the main reason why trans-1, 2-bis [2-(5-phenyloxazolyl) ] ethene (POEOP) has low laser conversion efficiency is that POEOP photodimerized easily with high stereoselectivity. The photodimer r-1, c-2, t-3, t-4-tetra [2-(S-phenyloxazolyl) ] cyclobutane (TPOCB) was synthesized and its crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction method. The crystal is monoclinic. The space group is C2/c, with 0 = 2.2289(4), b=0.5406(2), c=2.631 7(7) nm, β=99.38(2)°, Z=4. The molecular cell of TPOCB is centrosymmetric. The dihedral angle between benzene and oxazole ring planes is similar to that of POEOP. It was also found that the photodimerization of POEOP and the photolysis of TPOCB is reversible, increasing the concentration of POEOP is advantageous to photodimerization. In contrast, decreasing the concentration of POEOP is advantageous to photolysis of TPOCB.

SPIROPHOSPHORANYLATION D'HYDROXYACIDES NATURELS (ACIDES MALIQUE,CITRIQUE ET TARTRIQUE)—EMETIQUES PHOSPHORES ET OLIGOMERES A PHOSPHORE PENTA ET HEXACOORDINE

Abstract

Condensing tartaric acid (R, R) and PCl₃, we obtained oligomers 3 and cyclic dimer 4. Oxidizing these compounds by DMSO, we prepared hydroxyphosphoranes 6–9, while reaction of orthoquinones gave six-coordinated compound 10. Compound 4 reacts with triethylamine leading to an equilibrium between phosphoranide 5 and phosphite 5'. The more likely structure of oligomers is a sequence of TBP arranged on a helix, whereas dimers should have an emetic structure with pentacoordinated phosphorus atoms. These results are supported by nmr analysis, molecular weight and elemental analysis. All these compounds have strong optical activity. On the other hand, condensing PCl₃ and malic or citric acids, we synthetized new functionalized spirophosphorans 2.

En condensant l'acide tartrique (R, R) et PCl₃, nous avons obtenu des oligomères 3 et le dimére cyclique 4. En oxydant ces composés par le DMSO, nous avons préparé les hydroxyphosphoranes 6–9, tandis que la réaction des orthoquinones a donné le composé a phosphore hexacoordiné 10. Le composé 4 réagit sur la triéthylamine, conduisant à un équilibre entre le phosphoranure 5 et le phosphite 5'. La structure la plus probable des oligomères est une série de BPT placées sur une hélice, tandis que les dimères devraient avoir une structure émétique avec les atomes de phosphore pentacoordinés. Ces résultats s'appuient sur l'analyse des spectres de RMN, les masses moléculaires et l'analyse élémentaire. Tous ces composés présentent une forte activité optique. Par ailleurs, en condensant PCl₃ et les acides malique ou citrique, nous avons synthétisé des spirophosphoranes fonctionnalisés nouveaux 2.     

Crystal structure of the organic metal (ET)2[Hg(SCN)2Cl] withT M-D=50 K

The composition and structure of the radical-ion salt (ET) ₂ [Hg(SCN) ₂ Cl], a new organic metal withT _M-D=50 K, were established in an x-ray structure investigation. Principal crystallographic data:a=36.69(1),b=8.302(8),c=11.732(8) Å, =90.02(6)°, space groupCc, Z=4,d _calc=2.08 g/cm ³ ,R=0.067. The crystal structure of the salt consists of an alternation of organic (cationic) and inorganic (anionic) layers along the axisa. The anionic layer consists of the polymeric chains in which the [Hg(SCN) ₂ Cl]^– ions are linked together along the axisc through secondary Hg···N bonds with lengths of 2.75(3) and 2.98(8) Å. On account of these interactions the trigonal configuration of the bonds of the Hg atom is built up to trigonal-bipyramidal. In the organic layer with a structure of the type the ET cations form dimers with an interplanar distance of 3.53 Å. ET cations belonging to neighboring dimers are linked together through shortened intermolecular S...S contacts with lengths of 3.40–3.50(2) Å.Institute of Chemical Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Chernogolovka 142432.

Synthesis, Structure and Conductivity of the New Charge-transfer Salt (ET)_2(CH_2=CH-CH_2-SO_3)·H_2O

ET is one of the most famous electron-donor molecules, which forms charge-transfer complexes (abbr. CT-complexes) with various types of counterions. These complexes have received intense attention because a wide range of physical properties such as conductivity and superconductivity1, ferromagnetism2-4 and nonlinear optical properties5 was found in these materials. Although the majority of the ET-based CT-complexes were prepared by combining with inorganic counterions, CT-complexes with o…

A chiral molecular conductor: synthesis, structure, and physical properties of [ET]3[Sb2(L-tart)2].CH3CN (ET = bis(ethylendithio)tetrathiafulvalene; L-tart = (2R,3R)-(+)-tartrate)

The salt [ET](3)[Sb(2)(L-tart)(2)].CH(3)CN (1) has been obtained by electrocrystallization of the organic donor bis(ethylendithio)tetrathiafulvalene (ET or BEDT-TTF) in the presence of the chiral anionic complex [Sb(2)(L-tart)(2)](2-) (L-tart = (2R,3R)-(+)-tartrate). This salt crystallizes in the chiral space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) (a = 11.145(2) angstroms, b = 12.848(2) angstroms, c = 40.159(14) angstroms, V = 5750.4(14) angstroms(3), Z = 4) and is formed by alternating layers of the anions and of the organic radicals in a noncentrosymmetric alpha-type packing. This compound shows a room temperature electrical conductivity of approximately 1 S.cm(-1) and semiconducting behavior with an activation energy of approximately 85 meV. Analysis of the magnetic susceptibility and band structure, however, suggests that this compound should be a narrow band gap semiconductor.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and properties of the semiconducting salts (TTF)2[Ni(dtcr)2] and (ET)2[Ni(dtcr)2] based on [Ni(dtcr)2] dianions (dtcr = dithiocroconate)

The first examples of CT salts based on [Ni(dtcr)2] dianions (1) (dtcr = dithiocroconate = 4,5-disulfanylcyclopent-4-ene-1,2,3-trionate), (TTF)2[Ni(dtcr)2] (TTF = tetrathiafulvalene) (2) and (ET)2[Ni(dtcr)2] [ET = bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene] (3) are reported. The redox-active dianion 1, containing oxo-groups in the periphery of the molecule, has been selected to investigate the role of the oxo-groups in promoting intermolecular interactions and hopefully their conducting properties. The salts 2 and 3 have been prepared by electrocrystallisation methods and 3 shows a semi-metallic behaviour: sigma = 1 x 10(-3) omega(-1) cm(-1) at room temperature, with a low activation energy 60 meV, while crystals of 2 were unsuitable for conductivity measurements. The X-ray structural characterisation shows an alternate dianion-(cation)2 stacking and the capability of the oxo-groups to promote interstack contacts. In 2, the TTF donors are present as face-to-face dimers of monocations (D2)2+. The stacking arrangement is different in 3, where ET monocations stack along two directions ([110] and [110]) in the same manner, with the repeating sequence (ET)-(ET)-[Ni(dtcr)2]-(ET)-(ET) and are almost parallel to each other, with interplanar distances of 3.575 angstroms. Both structures are built on a dianion and two donor molecules, each one with a charge of +1. Diffuse reflectance combined with vibrational spectra complement structural results well. Crystal data: both 2 and 3 crystallise in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c with a = 8.6340(8) angstroms, b = 21.586(2) angstroms, c = 7.5960(8) angstroms, beta = 95.625(11) degrees and V = 1408.9(2) angstroms3 for 2 and with a = 9.3700(7), b = 7.4410(6), c = 28.278(2) angstroms, beta = 99.039(6) degrees, V = 1947.1(3) angstroms3 for 3.
