On the Structural Chemistry of BaMg₂X₂ (X ? Si, Ge, sn, Pb) The new compounds BaMg₂X₂ (X ? Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) have been prepared and their structures have been determined. BaMg₂Si₂ and BaMg₂Ge₂ crystallize in the ThCr₂Si₂-type, BaMg₂Sn₂ and BaMg₂Pb₂ show two new atomic arrangements, which are layer variants of the former type.     

Alternativ-Liganden. XXVI [1]. M(CO)4L-Komplexe (M  Cr,Mo, W) der Chelatliganden Me2ESiMe2(CH2)2E′Me2 (Me  CH3; E  P,As; E′  N,P, As)

Alternative Ligands. XXVI. M(CO)₄ L-Complexes (M ? Cr, Mo, W) of the Chelating Ligands Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂E′ Me₂ (Me ? CH₃; E ? P, As; E′ ? N, P, As) The reaction of M(CO)₄NBD (NBD = norbornadiene; M ? Cr, Mo, W) with the ligands Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂E′ Me₂ yields the chelate complexes (CO)₄M[Me₂ESiMe₂]) for E,E′ ? P, As, but not for E and /or E′ ? N. The NSi group is not suited for coordination because of strong (p-d)π-interaction. In the case of the ligands with E ? P or As and E′ ? N chelate complexes can be detected in the reaction mixture, but isolable products are complexes with two ligands coordinated via the E donor group. The new compounds are characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (IR, NMR, MS) investigations. The spectroscopic data are also used to deduce the coordinating properties of the ligands. X-ray diffraction studies of the molybdenum complexes (CO)₄Mo[Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂AsMe ₂] (E ? P, As) in accord with the observed coordination effects show only small differences between SiE and CE donor functions. Attempts to use the ligands Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂AsMe₂ (E ? P, As) for the preparation of Fe(CO)₃L complexes result in the fission of the SiE bonds and the formation of the binuclear systems Fe₂(CO)₆(EMe₂)₂ (E ? P, As) together with the disilane derivative [Me₂Si(CH₂)₂AsMe₂]₂.     

Perfluormethyl-Element-Liganden. XXXV. Reaktivität metallierter Phosphane und Arsane des Typs π-C5H5(CO)3MER2 (M  Cr,Mo, W; E  P,As; R  CF3, CN)

Perfluoromethyl-Element-Ligands. XXXV. Reactivity of Metallated Phosphanes and Arsanes of the Type π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MER₂ (M ? Cr, Mo, W; E ? P, As; R ? CF₃, CN) The influence of the complex fragments π-C₅H₅(CO)₃M (M ? Cr, Mo, W) on the basicity of the metallated phosphanes or arsanes π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MER₂ (E ? P, As; R ? CF₃, CN) has been investigated by reactions with sulfur, methyliodide, fluorotrichloromethane, and W(CO)₅THF, respectively. π-C₅H₅(CO)₃ME(CF₃)₂ (E ? P: 1a–c ; E ? As: 2a–c ) react with sulfur only for E ? P to give the complexes π-C₅H₅(CO)₃P(S)(CF₃)₂ ( 5a–c ) in good yield. The attempted thermal transformation of the phosphane sulfides to η² coordinated (CF₃)₂P?S complexes proves unsuccessful. The reactions of 1a–c, 2a–c and π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MP(CN)₂ ( 3a–c ) with CH₃I or CCl₃F do not lead to onium salts, but to cleavage of the M–E bonds forming π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MX (X ? I, Cl) and CH₃ER₂ and R₂ECCl₂F, respectively. The reactivity depends on ER₂ and M: P(CF₃)₂ > P(CN)₂ > As(CF₃)₂; Cr > Mo > W. Due to the low donor ability of the complexes 1a–c, 2a–c and 3a–c binuclear compounds π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MER₂W(CO)₅ (E ? As, R ? CF₃: 11a–c ; E ? P, R ? CN: 12a–c ; ER₂?P(CN)Ph: 13a, b ) are obtained only with the highly reactive W(CO)₅THF. In case of the (CF₃)₂P bridged derivatives spontaneous CO-elimination leads to the threemembered ring systems ( 10a–c ).

New Tetrapnictidotitanates(IV): Na₃M₃[TiX₄] with M ? Na/Sr, Na/Eu and X ? P, As The four novel tetrapnictidotitanates(IV) Na₄Sr₂TiP₄, Na₄Sr₂TiAs₄, Na_4.3Eu_1.7TiP₄ and Na_4.3Eu_1.7TiAs₄ were prepared from the binary pnictides NaX, M₃X, M′X (X ? P, As and M′ ?

Main structural units are polar oriented [TiP₄]^8? and [TiAs₄]^8? tetrahedral anions with d (Ti? P) = 240.2(3) pm and d (Ti? As) = 248.6(3) pm.

Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Properties of a New Sialon – SrSiAl₂O₃N₂ The sialon SrSiAl₂O₃N₂ was obtained as a coarsly crystalline solid by reaction of silicon diimide, aluminum nitride, and strontium carbonate under N₂ atmosphere in a high-frequency furnace at 1650 °C. According to the single-crystal structure determination the title compound is isotypic with LnSi₃N₅ (Ln = La, Ce, Nd, Pr). SrSiAl₂O₃N₂ (P2₁2₁2₁, a = 491.98(6), b = 789.73(7), c = 1134.94(18) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0439, wR2 = 0.0939). In the solid a three-dimensional network structure of corner sharing SiON₃, AlO₃N, and AlO₂N₂ tetrahedra occurs. Lattice energetic calculations using the MAPLE concept confirm an unequivocally correct crystallographic differentiation between N and O as well as Al and Si atoms, respectively (Al–O: 167.4(5)–170.6(6); Al–N: 175.4(6)–179.4(6); Si–O: 171.2(6); SiN: 176.7(6)–179.6(6) pm). The Sr²⁺ ions are located in the voids of the (SiAl₂O₃N₂)^2– framework (Sr–O: 250.4(6)–304.2(6); Sr–N: 287.4(6) 318.2(6) pm).
