They exhibit ⊥ c cyanobridged layers of octahedra [M^III(CN)₆] and [M^IIN₄(OH₂)₂], which punctually are interconnected also || c to yield altogether a spaceous framework. The M^II atoms at the positions linking into the third dimension are only five‐coordinated and form square pyramids [M^IIN₅] with angles N–M^II–N near 104° and distances of Mn–N: 1 × 214, 4 × 219 pm; Cd–N: 1 × 220 resp. 222, 4 × 226 resp. 228 pm.

Phosphaniminato‐Cluster von Eisen. Die Kristallstrukturen von [FeCl(NPEt3)]4, [Fe(C=C–SiMe3)(NPEt3)]4 und [Fe3Cl4{NP(NMe2)3}3]

Phosphoraneiminato Cluster of Iron. The Crystal Structures of [FeCl(NPEt₃)]₄, [Fe(C=C–SiMe₃)(NPEt₃)]₄, and [Fe₃Cl₄{NP(NMe₂)₃}₃] The reaction of iron dichloride with the silylated phosphaneimine Me₃SiNPEt₃ in the presence of potassium fluoride at 165 ?C leads to the phosphoraneiminato complex [FeCl(NPEt₃)]₄ ( 1 ). Compound 1 forms black, moisture and oxygen sensitive crystals. According to the crystal structure analysis 1 has a heterocubane structure, in which the iron and the nitrogen atoms of the NPEt₃^– groups occupy the corners of a distorted cube and form Fe–N–Fe bond angles of 83.1? and N–Fe–N angles of 96.5?. This results in significantly short Fe…Fe contacts of 272.9 pm. The results of magnetic susceptibility measurements in the range of temperatures from 1.8 to 293 K and the ⁵⁷Fe‐Mössbauer spectra in the range of temperatures from 2 to 300 K are reported. Compound 1 reacts with the lithiated acetylenes LiC=C–CMe₃ and LiC=C–SiMe₃ in n‐hexane to form the iron‐organic derivatives [Fe(C=C–R)(NPEt₃)]₄ [R = CMe₃ ( 2 a ), R = SiMe₃ ( 2 b )] keeping the heterocubane structure. Compounds 2 a and 2 b form crystals which are very reactive and also black. According to the crystal structure analysis 2 b has a Fe₄N₄ heterocubane structure which is less distorted than that in 1 with bond angles Fe–N–Fe of 85.5? and N–Fe–N of 94.2?. This leads to the longer Fe…Fe contacts of 281.4 pm. With the dimethylamido derivative Me₃SiNP(NMe₂)₃ iron dichloride reacts under conditions similar to those in the synthesis of 1 to form the dark green mixed‐valenced Fe^II/Fe^III cluster [Fe₃Cl₄{NP(NMe₂)₃}₃] ( 3 ). According to the crystal structure analysis the three iron atoms in 3 are connected via one μ₃‐N atom of a NP(NMe₂)₃^– ligand, via two μ‐N atoms of the two remaining phosphoraneiminato ligands, and via one μ‐Cl atom to form an incomplete heterocubane skeleton.

The nickel atoms are associated via μ₃‐N bridges of the (NPMe₃^–) groups to form a heterocubane. The triflate ions are bonded to the Ni atoms in a chelate fashion. Blue single crystals of [Ni₄Br₅{NP(NMe₂)₃}₃] ( 2 ) are obtained by the reaction of NiBr₂ with Me₃SiNP(NMe₂)₃ in boiling toluene in the presence of sodium fluoride. The Ni atoms in 2 are associated with three μ₃‐bridged nitrogen atoms of the (NP(NMe₂)₃^–) groups as well as by a μ₃‐Br atom to give a distorted heterocubane. Deep blue single crystals of the phosphaneimine complex [NiBr₂{HNP(NMe₂)₃}₂] ( 3 ) are formed from Me₃SiNP(NMe₂)₃ and NiBr₂ in boiling dichloromethane. In 3 the Ni atom is tetrahedrally coordinated by the bromine atoms and by the nitrogen atoms of the phosphane imine molecules. Pale red crystals of [Ni(PMePh₂)₄] ( 4 ) have been obtained by the reaction of [NiBr(NPMe₃)]₄ with lithium phenylacetilyde in the presence of PMePh₂. In 4 the Ni atom is distorted tetrahedrally coordinated by the phosphorus atoms of the phosphane molecules with Ni–P distances of 219.9 pm in average. 1 – 4 have been characterized by crystallographic X‐ray analyses. 1 : Space group P2₁/n, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at 193 K: a = 1566.7(2); b = 1479.9(1); c = 1960.6(2) pm; β = 105.908(9)°; R = 0.0443. 2 · 3 CH₂Cl₂: Space group P2₁/c, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at 293 K: a = 1226.0(3); b = 1614.0(3); c = 2406.0(5) pm; β = 92.34(3)°; R = 0.0703. 3 : Space group C2/c, Z = 4, latttice dimensions at 203 K: a = 1840.7(1); b = 810.1(1); c = 1607.2(2) pm; β = 94.74(1)°, R = 0.0340. 4 : Space group P1, Z = 2, lattice dimensions at 223 K: a = 1053.1(2); b = 1315.0(3); c = 1674.5(3) pm; α = 81.55(1)°; β = 79.15(2)°; γ = 84.91(2)°; R = 0.0497.

Chromhexacyano‐Komplexe: Die Kristallstrukturen der Cyanoelpasolithe (NMe4)2ACr(CN)6 (A = K,Cs) und der kubischen Bariumverbindung Ba3[Cr(CN)6]2 · 20 H2O

Chromium Hexacyano Complexes: The Crystal Structures of the Cyano Elpasolites (NMe₄)₂ACr(CN)₆ (A = K, Cs) and of the Cubic Barium Compound Ba₃[Cr(CN)₆]₂ · 20 H₂O The crystal structures of the cyano elpasolites (NMe₄)₂KCr(CN)₆ (a = 1527.3(1), b = 888.1(1), c = 1539.0(1) pm, β = 109.92(1)°; C2/c, Z = 4) and (NMe₄)₂CsCr(CN)₆ (a = 1278.9(1) pm; Fm3m, Z = 4), as well as of the cubic compound Ba₃[Cr(CN)₆]₂ · 20 H₂O (a = 1631.0(1) pm; Im3m, Z = 4) were determined by X‐ray methods with single crystals. Reasons for the enlarged distances within the [Cr(CN)₆]^3–‐octahedron of the K compound (Cr–C: 209.3 pm) compared to the observations within both cubic complexes (206.1 resp. 206.9 pm) are discussed in context with the tolerance factors of cyano elpasolites. As is the case there concerning the cyano bridges Cr–CN–A towards the alkali ions the novel structure type of the barium compound, too, exhibits nearly linear bridging towards Ba. It contributes, however, only four N ligands to the ninefold [BaN₄O₅] coordination; part of the aqua ligands show disorder (Ba–N: 287.5, Ba–O: 281/293 pm).

[(Te2)3{Mn(CO)3}2{Mn(CO)4}3]– – A Novel Tellurium‐­Manganese Carbonyl with Ufosane‐like Structure

By reacting Mn₂(CO)₁₀ and TeI₄ in the ionic liquid[BMIm][OTf] (1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium trifluromethanesulfonate), brick‐red crystals of [BMIm][(Te₂)₃{Mn(CO)₃}₂{Mn(CO)₄}₃]are obtained. The title compound contains the carbonyl anion[(Te₂)₃{Mn(CO)₃}₂{Mn(CO)₄}₃]^–. Herein, three formal Te₂^2– units and two formal Mn(CO)₃⁺ fragments establish a distorted heterocubane‐like Te₆Mn₂ structure. Three edges of this heterocubane are furthermore capped by Mn(CO)₄⁺ fragments. The resulting Te₆Mn₅ building unit, moreover, looks very similar to the P₁₁^3– anion – the so‐called ufosane. The mean distances Te–Te and Te–Mn are observed with 277.6 and 264.7 pm, respectively. In addition to single‐crystal structure analysis, the title compound is characterized by infrared spectroscopy (FT‐IR), thermogravimetry (TG) and energy‐dispersive X‐ray (EDX) analysis.

The Reactions of CH₂=P(NMe₂)₃ with Fe(CO)₅, Cr(CO)₆, and CS₂; Molecular Structures of [MeP(NMe₂)₃][(CO)₅CrC(O)CH=P(NMe₂)₃], and (CO)₄Fe=C(OMe)CH=P(NMe₂)₃ The ylide CH₂=P(NMe₂)₃ ( 1 ) reacts with several binary transition metal carbonyls M(CO)_x to produce the corresponding salt like compounds [MeP(NMe₂)₃][(CO)_x–1MC(O)CH=P(NMe₂)₃] (M = Fe ( 3 ), Cr ( 4 )). The related reaction with CS₂ leads to the salt [MeP(NMe₂)₃][SC(S)CH=P(NMe₂)₃] ( 2 ). While 4 is thermally stable, 3 rapidly decomposes at room temperature with formation of [MeP(NMe₂)₃]₂[Fe₂(CO)₈] ( 8 ). Alkylation of 3 (at –50 °C) and 4 with MeSO₃CF₃ produces the related carbene complexes (CO)_x–1M=C(OMe)CH=P(NMe₂)₃ ( 5 ) and ( 6 ); the reaction of 3 with Me₃SiCl results in the formation of the carbene complex (CO)₄Fe=C(OSiMe₃)CH=P(NMe₂)₃ ( 7 ). 4 crystallizes in the space group P2₁2₁2₁ (No. 19) with a = 1111.1(2), b = 1476.1(3), c = 1823.1(4) pm and Z = 4. 5 crystallizes in the space group P2₁/n (No. 14) with a = 1303.6(3), b = 910.5(4), c = 1627.0(4) pm, β = 96.06(2)° and Z = 4. The compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P) and IR spectroscopy.

Kristallstrukturuntersuchungen an den Alkali- und BariumÜbergangsmetallfluoriden RbK2Mn2F7, BaNiF4 und einer 5 : 3-Phase im System BaLiF3/NaCoF3

Crystal Structural Studies of the Alkali and Barium Transition Metal Fluorides RbK₂Mn₂F₇, BaNiF₄, and a 5 : 3-Phase of the System BaLiF₃/NaCoF₃ At single crystals of the compounds RbK₂Mn₂F₇, BaNiF₄, and of a phase 0.618 BaLiF₃/0.382 NaCoF₃ the X-ray crystal structures were refined. RbK₂Mn₂F₇ is tetragonal (a = 421.1(1), c = 2188.3(2) pm, I4/mmm, Z = 2) and belongs to the Sr₃Ti₂O₇ type. The average distances are Mn–F: 210.7 pm for the [MnF₆] octahedron and A–F: 290.6 resp. 297.1 pm for the [AF₉] resp. [AF₁₂] coordination of the mixed alkali positions (A = Rb/3 + 2 K/3). BaNiF₄ (a = 413.7(1), b = 1443.1(3), c = 578.1(1) pm, Cmc2₁, Z = 4) is of the orthorhombic BaZnF₄ type; Ni–F: 200.3 pm, Ba–F: 274.3 pm for CN6 and CN9, resp.. The phase of approximate composition 5 : 3, isolated from a 1 : 1 batch BaLiF₃/NaCoF₃, is cubic (a = 801.8(1) pm, Im3, Z = 8 AMF₃) and forms a strongly disordered perovskite super-structure, the features of which are discussed.

All complexes have heterocubane structures. In 1‐3 they are formed by four alkali metal atoms and by the nitrogen atoms of the (μ₃‐NPCy₃^‐) groups, whereas 4 forms a "heteroleptic" Li₄NO₃ heterocubane.
