The synthesis, crystal structure, and physical characterization of the coordination compounds [Ni(en)2]4[Fe(CN)5NO]2[Fe(CN)6]x5H2O (1), [Ni(en)2][Fe(CN)5NO]x3H2O (2), [Mn(3-MeOsalen)(H2O)]2[Fe(CN)5NO] (3), and [Mn(5-Brsalen)]2[Fe(CN)5NO] (4) are presented. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/n (a = 7.407(4) A, b = 28.963(6) A, c = 14.744(5) A, alpha = 90 degrees, beta = 103.26(4) degrees, gamma = 90 degrees, Z = 2). Its structure consists of branched linear chains formed by cis-[Ni(en)2]2+ cations and ferrocyanide and nitroprusside anions. The presence of two kinds of iron(II) sites has been demonstrated by M?ssbauer spectroscopy. 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c (a = 11.076(3) A, b = 10.983(2) A, c = 17.018(5) A, alpha = 90 degrees, beta = 107.25(2) degrees, gamma = 90 degrees, Z = 4). Its structure consists of zigzag chains formed by an alternated array of cis-[Ni(en)2]2+ cations and nitroprusside anions. 3 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 (a = 8.896(5) A, b = 10.430(5) A, c = 12.699(5) A, alpha = 71.110(5) degrees, beta = 79.990(5) degrees, gamma = 89.470(5) degrees, Z = 1). Its structure comprises neutral trinuclear bimetallic complexes in which a central [Fe(CN)5NO]2- anion is linked to two [Mn(3-MeOsalen)]+ cations. 4 crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P4/ncc (a = 13.630(5) A, c = 21.420(8) A, Z = 4). Its structure shows an extended 2D neutral network formed by cyclic octameric [-Mn-NC-Fe-CN-]4 units. The magnetic properties of these compounds indicate the presence of quasi-isolated paramagnetic Ni2+ and Mn3+. Irradiated samples of the four compounds have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry to detect the existence of the long-lived metastable states of nitroprusside.     

Theoretical study of the photoinduced transfer among the ground state and two metastable states in [Fe(CN)5NO]2-

Ab initio calculations were performed to investigate photoinduced transfers among the ground state (GS) and two metastable states (MS1 and MS2) of [Fe(CN)5NO]2-. We obtained the global potential energy surface of the electronic ground state by a scheme of multireference singly and doubly excited configuration interaction followed by a Davidson-type quadruple correction (MRSDCI+Q). The ground state surface has three local minima corresponding to GS, MS1, and MS2. The character of bond between Fe and the nitrosyl group are discussed. We carried out calculations of the lower five electronic excited states by MRSDCI+Q. The main configurations of these lower five excited states were represented by the dFe-->pi*NO transition accompanied by considerable back-donation. The potential energy surfaces of the six states, including the ground state, were obtained by state averaged complete active space self-consistent field calculations. The surfaces have several conical intersections and avoided crossings in the reaction pathway. The photoinduced transfers among GS, MS1, and MS2 are caused by the nonadiabatic effect near these crossings.     

Synthesis of Isotope Enriched (CN3H6)2[57Fe(CN)5NO] starting from 57Fe

A high‐yield, mmolar‐scale synthesis of pure guanidinium nitroprusside, (CN₃H₆)₂[⁽⁵⁷⁾Fe(CN)₅NO] (GNP) from iron metal is described. The iron metal contained pieces of 95.3% ⁵⁷Fe together with normal iron so that an isotope enrichment in ⁵⁷Fe of 25% was achieved. Single‐crystals of GNP could be grown in cubic shape and dimensions of about 3 × 4 × 4 mm³. The purity of the GNP product and the intermediates K₄[⁽⁵⁷⁾Fe(CN)₆] · 3 H₂O and Na₂[⁽⁵⁷⁾Fe(CN)₅NO] · 2 H₂O was ascertained by ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy as well as ¹³C, ¹⁴N and ⁵⁷Fe NMR spectroscopy. The ⁵⁷Fe NMR chemical shift for [⁽⁵⁷⁾Fe(CN)₅NO]^2– in GNP was detected at +2004.0 ppm [vs Fe(CO)₅].     

Syntheses,crystal structures and magnetic properties of two cyano-bridged two-dimensional assemblies [Fe(salpn)]2 [Fe(CN)5NO] and [Fe(salpn)]2[Ni(CN)4]

Two cyano-bridged assemblies, [Fe^III(salpn)]₂[Fe^II(CN)₅NO] (1) and [Fe^III (salpn)]₂[Ni^II(CN)₄] (2) [salpn = N, N-1,2-propylenebis(salicylideneiminato)dianion], have been prepared and structurally and magnetically characterized. In each complex, [Fe(CN)₅NO]^2– or [Ni(CN)₄]^2– coordinates with four [Fe(salpn)]⁺ cations using four co-planar CN^– ligands, whereas each [Fe(salpn)]⁺ links two [Fe(CN)₅NO]^2– or [Ni(CN)₄]^2– ions in the trans form, which results in a two-dimensional (2D) network consisting of pillow-like octanuclear [—M^II—CN—Fe^III—NC—]₄ units (M = Fe or Ni). In complex (1), the NO group of [Fe(CN)₅NO]^2– remains monodentate and the bond angle of Fe^II—N—O is 180.0°. The variable temperature magnetic susceptibilities, measured in the 5–300 K range, show weak intralayer antiferromagnetic interactions in both complexes with the intramolecular iron(III)iron(III) exchange integrals of –0.017 cm^–1 for (1) and –0.020 cm^–1 for (2), respectively.     

Au(CN)4]- as a supramolecular building block for heterobimetallic coordination polymers

A series of the first coordination polymers using the [Au(CN)(4)](-) anion as a building block has been prepared. The planar tetracyanoaurate anion uses one, two, or four cyano groups to bridge to Ni(II) or Cu(II) centers and exhibits weak Au(III)-N(cyano) interactions between anions. Ni(en)(2)[Au(CN)(4)](2).H(2)O (1, en = ethylenediamine) is a molecular compound with the two [Au(CN)(4)](-) anions coordinating in a trans orientation to Ni(II) without further cyanide coordination. Cu(dien)[Au(CN)(4)](2) (2, dien = diethylenetriamine) forms a similar molecular complex; however, the dimensionality is increased through weak intermolecular Au-N(cyano) interactions of 3.002(14) A to form a 1-D zigzag chain. Cu(en)(2)[Au(CN)(4)](2) (3) also forms a molecular complex similar to 1, but with elongated axial bonds. The complex further aggregates through Au-N(cyano) interactions of 3.035(8) A to form a 2-D array. In [Cu(dmeda)(2)Au(CN)(4)][Au(CN)(4)] (4, dmeda = N,N-dimethylethylenediamine) one [Au(CN)(4)](-) anion coordinates via two cis-N(cyano) donors to the axial sites of two Cu(II) centers to form a 1-D zigzag chain of alternating [Cu(dmeda)(2)](2+) and [Au(CN)(2)](-) units; the other [Au(CN)(4)](-) anion forms a 1-D chain via Au-N(cyano) interactions. In [Cu(bipy)(H(2)O)(2)(Au(CN)(4))(0.5)][Au(CN)(4)](1.5) (5, bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine) one [Au(CN)(4)](-) anion uses all four cyano moieties to bridge four different Cu(II) centers, creating a 1-D chain.     

Synthesis,crystal structure and magnetic properties of a two-dimensional mixed-valence assembly [Fe(salen)]2[Fe(CN)5NO]

A cyanide-bridged Fe^III–Fe^II mixed-valence assembly, [Fe^III(salen)]₂[Fe^II(CN)₅NO] [salen = N,N-ethylenebis(salicylideneiminato)dianion], prepared by slow diffusion of an aqueous solution of Na₂[Fe(CN)₅NO] · 2H₂O and a MeOH solution of [Fe(salen)NO₃] in an H tube, has been characterized by X-ray structure analysis, i.r. spectra and magnetic measurements. The product assumes a two-dimensional network structure consisting of pillow-like octanuclear [—Fe^II—CN—Fe^III—NC—]₄ units with dimensions: Fe^II—C = 1.942(7) Å, C—N = 1.139(9) Å, Fe^III—N = 2.173(6) Å, Fe^II—C—N = 178.0(6)°, Fe^III—N—C = 163.4(6)°. The Fe^II—N—O bond angle is linear (180.0°). The variable temperature magnetic susceptibility, measured in the 4.8–300 K range, indicates the presence of a weak intralayer antiferromagnetic interaction and gives an Fe^III–Fe^III exchange integral of –0.033 cm^–1.     

Radical Cation Salts of Tetrathiotetracene and Tetraselenotetracene with Photochromic Anion [Fe(NO)(CN)5]2–

Radical cation salts of tetrathiotetracene (TTT) and tetraselenotetracene (TSeT) with photochromic anion [Fe(NO)(CN)₅]^2– having the compositions (TTT)₃[Fe(NO)(CN)₅] (I) and (TSeT)₃[Fe(NO)(CN)₅] (II) were synthesized. Their crystal structures and conducting and optical properties were studied. The salt structures are featured by stacks of TTT or TSeT triads. Analysis of the bond lengths in TTT and TSeT revealed localization of a charge in the triads, where one molecule is neutral and the other two molecules are charged (1+). At room temperature, the conductivity of crystals I and II along the stack direction is 6 × 10^–2 and 5–7 Ohm^–1 cm^–1, respectively. Unlike I, the temperature dependence of conductivity of II has peculiarities at 285 and 160 K due to phase transitions. The transition at 160 K was discovered also in the reflection spectra.

Thermal, pressure and light induced spin transition in the two-dimensional coordination polymer [Fe(pmd)2[Cu(CN)2]2

A complete structural, calorimetric, and magnetic characterisation of the 2D coordination spin crossover polymer [Fe(pmd)(2)[Cu(CN)(2)](2)] is reported. The crystal structure has been investigated below room temperature at 180 K and 90 K, and at 30 K after irradiating the sample at low temperature with green light (lambda = 532 nm). The volume cell contraction through the thermal spin transition is only 18 A(3) which is lower than the usually observed value of around 25-30 A(3) while the average Fe-N bond distances decrease by the typical value of about 0.19 A. The structural data of the irradiated state indicate that the high spin state is well induced since the cell parameters are consistent with the data at 180 K. Calorimetric and photo-calorimetric experiments have also been performed. The entropy content for the thermal spin transition, DeltaS = 35-37 J mol(-1) K(-1) lies in the lowest range of the typical values and correlates with the low volume cell contraction. The combination of the crystallographic and calorimetric data predicts, in accordance with a mean-field approach, a linear pressure dependence of the critical temperature with a slope of 302 K GPa(-1). Magnetic measurements under pressure reveal an anomalous behaviour since the critical temperature and hysteresis do not change up to 0.22 GPa but an apparent linear dependence is obtained for higher pressures (up to 0.8 GPa) with a slope two times higher than the mean-field estimation.     

Spektroskopische Untersuchungen an Eisen(II)-nitrosodicyan-methanid- und -nitrosocarbamoylcyanmethanid-Komplexen [Fe(NOC(CN)2)2(C5H5N)4] und [Fe(NOC(CN)C(O)NH2)2(C5H5N)2]

Spectroscopic Investigations of the Iron(II) Nitrosodicyanomethanide and Nitrosocarbamoylcyanomethanide Complexes [Fe(NOC(CN)₂)₂(C₅H₅N)₄] and [Fe(NOC(CN)C(O)NH₂)₂(C₅H₅N)₂] The syntheses of new iron(II) complexes of the nonlinear pseudohalides [NOC(CN)₂]^? and [NOC(CN)C(O)NH₂]^? is reported. The Structures of the compounds are discussed on the basis of IR, Mößbauer, ¹³C, and ¹⁴N NMR spectra as well as of the results of magnetic measurements.     

Monoanionic {Mn(NO)}5 and dianionic {Mn(NO)}6 thiolatonitrosylmanganese complexes: [(NO)Mn(L)2]- and [(NO)Mn(L)2]2- (LH2 = 1,2-benzenedithiol and toluene-3,4-dithiol)

The reaction of MnBr(2) and [PPN](2)[S,S-C(6)H(3)-R] (1:2 molar ratio) in THF yielded [(THF)Mn(S,S-C(6)H(3)-R)(2)](-) [R = H (1a), Me (1b); THF = tetrahydrofuran]. Formation of the dimeric [Mn(S,S-C(6)H(3)-R)(2)](2)(2-) [R = H (2a), Me (2b)] was presumed to compensate for the electron-deficient Mn(III) core via two thiolate bridges upon dissolution of complexes 1a and 1b in CH(2)Cl(2). Complex 2a displays antiferromagnetic coupling interaction between two Mn(III) centers (J = -52 cm(-1)), with the effective magnetic moment (mu(eff)) increasing from 0.85 mu(B) at 2.0 K to 4.86 mu(B) at 300 K. The dianionic manganese(II) thiolate complexes [Mn(S,S-C(6)H(3)-R)(2)](2-) [R = H (3a), Me (3b)] were isolated upon the addition of [BH(4)](-) into complexes 1a and 1b or complexes 2a and 2b, respectively. The anionic mononuclear {Mn(NO)}(5) thiolatonitrosylmanganese complexes [(NO)Mn(S,S-C(6)H(3)-R)(2)](-) [R = H (4a), Me (4b)] were obtained from the reaction of NO(g) with the anionic complexes 1a and 1b, respectively, and the subsequent reduction of complexes 4a and 4b yielded the mononuclear {Mn(NO)}(6) [(NO)Mn(S,S-C(6)H(3)-R)(2)](2-) [R = H (5a), Me (5b)]. X-ray structural data, magnetic susceptibility measurement, and magnetic fitting results imply that the electronic structure of complex 4a is best described as a resonance hybrid of [(L)(L)Mn(III)(NO(*))](-) and [(L)(L(*))Mn(III)(NO(-))](-) (L = 1,2-benzenedithiolate) electronic arrangements in a square-pyramidal ligand field. The lower IR v(NO) stretching frequency of complex 5a, compared to that of complex 4a (shifting from 1729 cm(-1) in 4a to 1651 cm(-1) in 5a), supports that one-electron reduction occurs in the {(L)(L(*))Mn(III)} core upon reduction of complex 4a.
