The crystal structure of tris (ethylenediamine), cobalt(III) hexacyanoferrate(III)dihydrate,Co(C2H8N2)3[Fe(CN)6] · 2H2O

The crystal structure of the title compound has been determined from three dimensional x-ray data obtained by the multiple film method. The space group is P2_l/n and the cell dimensions are: a = 14.90, b = 16.84, c = 8.38 Å; β = 93.5° Z = 4. The structure is formed by discrete Co (en) and Fe(CN) ions, both of which have an octahedral configuration. The Fe(CN) ions are approximately octahedrally surrounded by the Co (en) ions while arrangement of Fe (CN) ions around the Co(en) ions completely differs from an octahedron. The mean Fe? C and Co? C dustances are 1.91 and 2.01 Å, respectively. The water molecules do not play an important role in the structure and all distances between oxygen and other atoms indicate the presence of very weak hydrogen bonds. The salts M (en)₃ Q(CN)₆ · H₂O, where M = Co and Cr and Q = Cr, Mn, Fe and Co, are all isomorphous.     

Selektive Darstellung zweifach diorganophosphido-verbrückter Metallatetrahedrane [Re2(MPR3)2(μ-PR2)2(CO)6] mit Re2M2-Metallgerüst (M = Au,Ag)

19F-NMR-spektroskopischer Nachweis und statistische Untersuchung zur Bildung der gemischten Clusteranionen [(Mo6ICl)F]2−, n = 0–7, und Darstellung von (TBA)2[(Mo6I)F]

¹⁹F NMR Spectroscopic Evidence and Calculation of the Statistical Formation of Mixed Cluster Anions [(Mo₆I Cl )F ]^2?, n = 0–7, and Preparation of (TBA)₂[(Mo₆I )F ] The octa-μ₃-iodo-hexafluoro-hexamolybdate(2?)ion [(Mo₆I)F]^2? is prepared for the first time. The system of the 21 innersphere mixed clusters (Mo₆ICl)⁴⁺, n = 0–7 is formed by exchange of innersphere bound Clⁱ against outersphere bound I^a on tempering solid [(Mo₆Cl)I] at 400°C. Prolonged tempering leads to increasing average n values of the mixture, which is converted into the tetrabutylammonium salt (TBA)₂[(Mo₆ICl)F]. Using increments of chemical shifts and integral peak intensities the 54 ¹⁹F-nmr signals of the 21 species (compound n = 8 is absent) are assigned and confirmed by the 2 D-¹⁹F/¹⁹F-COSY spectrum. From the measured intensities the distribution of the different compounds is determined and proves significant deviation from statistical occupation, revealing the preference of isomers with iodine atoms occupying edges of the innersphere cube and discrimination of those sharing diagonals of the faces. Moreover all compounds with n = 3 and 4 are present overaverage in comparison to the others.

Using the same reducing agent but in the presence of a reagent with a high affinity to the specific {Mo₂}-type building unit (also a leaving group) of 1 a , such as formic acid, the compound Na₂₂[MoMoO₄₄₂H₁₄(H₂O)₅₈] · ca. 250 H₂O 2 (space group P 1, a = 24.724(1), b = 35.726(2), c = 44.608(3) Å, α = 93.25(1), β = 93.51(1), γ = 106.72(1)°, V = 37552(4) ų, Z = 2, D_calc = 2.401 g cm^–3) is obtained in which the giant rings, having four missing {Mo₂} units compared to 1 a , are linked to chains. Until now, similar chain-type compounds could only be obtained using a non-well-defined synthetic method.

Using increments of chemical shifts, peak intensities and multiplet structures as well as the 2D-¹⁹F/¹⁹F-COSY spectrum the complete and unambiguous assignment of all resonances is achieved. From the measured integral intensities the distribution of the different compounds is determined, revealing statistical formation of the geometrical isomers.     

Zur Insertion in die Lanthanoid–Kohlenstoffbindung Synthese und Struktur von [CpSm(C6H5CH2NNO)]2 und [K(18-Krone-6)CpYb(NCS)2]∞

On the Insertion into the Lanthanide–Carbon Bond. Synthesis and Structure of [Cp Sm(C₆H₅CH₂NNO)]₂ and [K(18-crown-6)Cp Yb(NCS)₂]_∞ The compound [CpSm(CH₂C₆H₅)(thf)] was investigated, regarding its reactions with small molecules. The main subject was to detect an insertion into the Ln–C bond. With N₂O an insertion reaction is observed, yielding the dimer [CpSm(C₆H₅CH₂NNO)]₂ ( 1 ). The structural data of 1 was collected by a single crystal X-Ray diffraction analysis. (Space group P 1, Z = 1, a = 982.8(2) pm, b = 1052.2(2) pm, c = 1383.8(3) pm, α = 89.29(3)°, β = 73.64(3)°, γ = 66.41(3)°). In the dimer, the two Samarium ions are linked via an (η¹ : η²) bridge by two benzyl diazotato ligands. A nearly planar six-membered central Sm₂N₂O₂-ring is formend. Two pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligands complete the coordination sphere of each Samarium ion, which are thus surrounded by four ligands each and have a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry. An insertion of a SCN^– fragment in the Ln–C bond could not be observed. The substitution of the benzyl ligand leads to a polymeric chain structure. The new compound [K(18-crown-6)CpYb(NCS)₂]_∞ 2 contains a tetrahedrally coordinated Yb(III)-ion. (Space group P2₁/n}, Z = 4, a = 1640.6(3) pm, b = 1482.2(3) pm, c = 1674.5(3) pm, β = 102.82(1)°).     

Interactions Magnetiques dans quelques Ferrites Oxyfluores a Structure Spinelle de Formule ZnxMFe2−xO4–xFx (M ? Fe,Co, Ni)

Magnetic interactions in some oxyfluoroferrites of spinel structure with the formula Zn_xMe_2?xO_4?xFx (M = Fe, Co, Ni) Whereas the ferromagnetic spin arrangement of the B-cations is not modified by the Zn²⁺?Fe³⁺ substitution in the ZnFe[Fe₂₊Fe³⁺]O_4?xF_x (0 ≤ x ≤ 0,50) spinel, this same substitution leads to a spin canting in the ZnFe[Co₂₊Fe³⁺]O_4?xF_x and ZnFe[Ni₂₊Fe³⁺]O_4?xF_x (0 ≤ x ≤ 0,80) simples. The difference in the magnetic behaviors with regard to the AB and BB interactions can be explained on the basis of the magnetic exchange theory.

The most intense line with the depolarisation ≈? 0.2 in all Raman spectra is caused by inphase movement of all atoms and assigned to the symmetric metal-metal vibration v₁, observed for the clusters (Nb₆Cl) at 233–234, for (Nb₆Br) at 186–187, for (Ta₆Cl) at 199–203, and for (Ta₆Br) at 176–179 cm^?1. The IR spectra exhibit in the same series intense bands at 233, 204, 207, and 179 cm^?1, assigned to the antisymmetric metal-metal vibration. The metal-metal frequencies are significantly higher than discussed before. The tantalum clusters show on excitation with the krypton line 647.1 nm in the region of a d–d transition at 645 nm a resonance Raman effect with series of overtones and combination bands. In case of (Ta₆Br) another polarisized band is observed at 229 cm^?1 and assigned to the Ta? Brⁱ vibration v₂. From the progressions of v₁ and v₂ anharmonicity constants of about ?3 cm^?1 are calculated indicating a strong distortion of the potential curves.     

Zur Struktur von zwei Hydraten des Natriumphenolats: C6H5ONa · H2O und C6H5ONa · 3 H2O

The Structures of two Hydrates of Sodium Phenoxide: C₆H₅ONa · H₂O and C₆H₅ONa · 3 H₂O In the monohydrate of sodium phenoxide sodium is coordinated by 4 oxygen atoms having an average distance Na? O of about 2.631 Å being arranged in form of a distorted tetrahedron. The oxygen atoms of water and phenoxid serve as bridging ligands. Hence, the structure can be considered as a network with a general formula [Na^[4]O]. Moreover, the oxygen atoms are linked via hydrogen bonding. In the trihydrate of sodium phenoxide sodium is surrounded with 5 oxygen atoms with an average distance of 2.39 Å forming a tetragonal pyramide. The oxygen of the phenoxide, however, does not participate in the coordination of the sodium ion. The coordination polyhedrons are connected by sharing edges and verteces. The resulting layer can be described by the general formula [Na^[5]O₂^[2]O^[2]O^[1]]. Via hydrogen bonding the phenoxide ions are attached to this layer.

The higher ordered cells with U^VI and W^VI are face centered, which has its origin in an ordering of cationic vacancies.     

Kristallstrukturen und Wasserstoffbrückenbindungen bei β-Be(OH)2 und ϵ-Zn(OH)2

Crystal Structures and Hydrogen Bonding for β-Be(OH)₂ and ϵ-Zn(OH)₂ Crystals of β-Be(OH)₂ sufficient for x-ray structure determination were grown from a saturated hot solution of freshly prepared Be(OH)₂ in NaOH by slowly cooling down and in the case of ϵ-Zn(OH)₂ by electrochemical oxidation of zinc in a NaOH/NH₃ solution. The structures of the isotypic compounds were determined including the H-positions: β-Be(OH)₂: P2₁2₁2₁, Z = 4, a = 4.530(2) Å, b = 4.621(2) Å, c = 7.048(2) Å N(F > 3σ F) = 432, N(parameters) = 36, R/R_w = 0.044/0.052 ϵ-Zn(OH)₂: P2₁2₁2₁, Z = 4, a = 4.905(3) Å, b = 5.143(4) Å, c = 8.473(2) Å N(F > 3σ F) = 1107, N(parameters) = 36, R/R_w = 0.025/0.027For neutron diffraction experiments microcrystalline β-Be(OD)₂ was prepared. With time-of-flight data the D positions were determined giving d(O–D) = 0.954(4) Å. The structures are closely related to that of β-cristobalite: As in SiO₂ a quarter of tetrahedral interstices in a distorted cubic close packed arrangement of O is regularily occupied by the metal atoms. The filled O tetrahedra are twisted against one another in such a way, that O–H…O–H hydrogen bonds are favoured which are surprisingly stronger in the zinc than in the beryllium compound.
