Reaktionen von Zink- und Cadmiumhalogeniden mit Tris(trimethylsilyl)phosphan und Tris(trimethylsilyl)arsan

Reactions of Zinc and Cadmium Halides with Tris(trimethylsilyl)phosphane and Tris(trimethylsilyl)arsane ZnCl₂ reacts with E(SiMe₃)₃ (E = P, As) in toluene in the presence of PⁿPr₃ to give the binuclear complexes [Zn₂Cl₂{E(SiMe₃)₂}₂(PⁿPr₃)₂] · C₇H₈ (E = P 1 , As 2 ). Therefore by the use of PⁱPr₃ clusters consisting of ten metal atoms are obtained, [Zn₁₀Cl₁₂(ESiMe₃)₄(PⁱPr₃)₄] (E = P 3 , As 4 ). As a result of the reaction of CdBr₂ with P(SiMe₃)₃ the compound [CdBr₂{P(SiMe₃)₃}]₂ ( 5 ) can be isolated at –40 °C. In the presence of PⁿPr₃ CdBr₂ reacts with P(SiMe₃)₃ forming the binuclear complex [Cd₂Br₂{P(SiMe₃)₂}₂(PⁿPr₃)₂] · thf ( 6 ). The same reaction with PⁱPr₃ yields to the cluster [Cd₁₀Br₁₂(PSiMe₃)₄{P(SiMe₃)₃}₄] · 2 C₇H₈ ( 7 ). ZnI₂ and CdI₂ react with As(SiMe₃)₃ to yield the complexes [MI₂{As(SiMe₃)₃}]₂ (M = Zn 8 , Cd 9 ). In the case of CdI₂ additionally the cluster [Cd₁₀I₁₂(AsSiMe₃)₄ · {As(SiMe₃)₃}₄] · 4,5 C₇H₈ ( 10 ) is formed which is analogous to the compounds 3 , 4 and 7 . In the presence of [PⁿBu₄]I 8  reacts in THF to give the ionic compound [PⁿBu₄]₂[Zn₆I₆(AsSiMe₃)₄(thf)₂] · C₆H₆ ( 11 ).     

Alkalimetalltetraethinylozincate und ‐cadmate AI2M(C2H)4 (AI = Na — Cs,M = Zn,Cd): Synthese,Kristallstruktur und spektroskopische Eigenschaften

Alkali Metal Tetraethinylozincates and ‐cadmates A^I₂M(C₂H)₄ (A^I = Na — Cs, M = Zn, Cd): Synthesis, Crystal Structures, and Spectroscopic Properties By reaction of A^IC₂H (A^I = Na — Cs) with divalent zinc and cadmium salts in liquid ammonia the alkali metal tetraethinylozincates and ‐cadmates A^I₂M(C₂H)₄ (M = Zn, Cd) were accessible as polycrystalline powders. While Na₂M(C₂H)₄ is amorphous to X‐rays and the crystal structure of Cs₂Zn(C₂H)₄ could not be solved up to now, the remaining compounds are isotypic to the already known crystal structures of the potassium compounds, as was deduced from powder diffraction with X‐rays and synchrotron radiation. They crystallise in the tetragonal space group I4₁a, contain [M(C₂H)₄]^2— tetrahedra and show structural relationships to the scheelit and anatas structure types. Raman spectroscopic investigations confirm the existence of tetrahedral fragments with C‐C triple bonds in the alkali as well as in the amorphous alkaline earth metal compounds A^IIM(C₂H)₄ (A^II = Mg — Ba, M = Zn, Cd).

13C-NMR-Untersuchungen zur Strukturaufklärung von Polysacchariden und deren Methylderivaten

The ¹³C NMR spectra of some polysaccharides and their methyl derivatives have been analysed. The numbers and positions of the assigned ¹³C NMR signals give some information about the structure of the monomer unit and the positions of the glycosidic linkage but no information about the anomeric configuration. In this case the ¹J(C-1, H) coupling constants make it possible to identify the anomeric configuration, because the mean differences of the J values for the α- and β-anomers are 12 Hz (at least 5 Hz) with the higher values for the α-anomers.     

Synthese,Struktur und Charakterisierung von Titan‐, Zink‐, Nickel‐ und Palladium‐Thioether‐Thiolat‐Komplexen heterocyclischer 1,2‐Dithiolate

The x‐ray structures of CpTi(dmidCH₃)₂ (Cp′ = methylcyclopentadienyl), of two polymorphic structures of (tmeda)Zn(dmitCH₃)₂ [tmeda = 1,2‐bis(dimethylamino)ethane], of (dppe)Ni(dmitCH₃)₂, and (dppe)Pd(dmitCH₃)₂ [dppe=1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane] are reported.     

Synthesen und Strukturen von Bis(4,4′‐t‐butyl‐2,2′‐bipyridin)‐Ruthenium(II)‐Komplexen mit funktionellen Derivaten des Tetramethyl‐bibenzimidazols

Syntheses and Structures of Bis(4,4′‐t‐butyl‐2,2′‐bipyridine) Ruthenium(II) Complexes with functional Derivatives of Tetramethyl‐bibenzimidazole [(tbbpy)₂RuCl₂] reacts with dinitro‐tetramethylbibenzimidazole ( A ) in DMF to form the complex [(tbbpy)₂Ru( A )](PF₆)₂ ( 1a ) (tbbpy: bis(4,4′‐t‐butyl)‐2,2′bipyridine). Exchange of the two PF₆^? anions by a mixture of tetrafluor‐terephthalat/tetrafluor‐terephthalic acid results in the formation of 1b in which an extended hydrogen‐bonded network is formed. According to the ¹H NMR spectra and X‐ray analyses of both 1a and 1b , the two nitro groups of the bibenzimidazole ligand are situated at the periphery of the complex in cis position to each other. Reduction of the nitro groups in 1a with SnCl₂/HCl results in the corresponding diamino complex 2 which is a useful starting product for further functionalization reactions. Substitution of the two amino groups in 2 by bromide or iodide via Sandmeyer reaction results in the crystalline complexes [(tbbpy)₂Ru( C )](PF₆)₂ and [(tbbpy)₂Ru( D )](PF₆)₂ ( C : dibromo‐tetrabibenzimidazole, D : diiodo‐tetrabibenzimidazole). Furthermore, 2 readily reacts with 4‐t‐butyl‐salicylaldehyde or pyridine‐2‐carbaldehyde under formation of the corresponding Schiff base Ru^II complexes 5 and 6 . ¹H NMR spectra show that the substituents (NH₂, Br, I, azomethines) in 2 ‐ 6 are also situated in peripheral positions, cis to each other. The solid state structure of both 2 , and 3 , determined by X‐ray analyses confirm this structure. In addition, the X‐ray diffraction analyses of single crystals of the complexes [(tri‐t‐butyl‐terpy)(Cl)Ru( A )] ( 7 ) and [( A )PtCl₂] ( 8 ) display also that the nitro groups in these complexes are in a cis‐arrangement.     

Syntheses,Characterizations, and Crystal Structures of β‐Diketiminato Compounds of Pentafluorophenyl Group 12 Derivatives,HC{[C(Me)N(C6H3‐2, 6‐i‐Pr2)]2}MC6F5 (M = Zn,Cd)

The reactions of H₂C[C(Me)N(C₆H₃‐2, 6‐i‐Pr₂)]₂ ((DPP)₂NacNacH) and Zn(C₆F₅)₂ · 2 EtCN or Cd(C₆F₅)₂ · 2 MeCN in a molar ratio of approximately 1:1 selectively gave the derivatives (DPP)₂NacNacMC₆F₅ (M = Zn, Cd) in excellent yields. No reaction was observed between (DPP)₂NacNacH and Hg(C₆F₅)₂ under similar conditions. Reactions with Hg(C₆F₅)OCOMe yielded the products of dismutation, Hg(C₆F₅)₂ and Hg(OCOMe)₂. (DPP)₂NacNacZnC₆F₅ crystallises as a 1:1 adduct with THF with two independent molecules per unit cell (triclinic, P1 (no. 2)). The zinc atom is tetrahedrally surrounded by the chelating ligand, the pentafluorophenyl group and one THF molecule. A similar situation is found in the 1:1 adduct of (DPP)₂NacNacCdC₆F₅ and DMF (monoclinic, P2₁/n (no. 14)), while in the donor‐free compound (CDCl₃ and H₂O co‐crystallize) the cadmium atom is nearly ideally trigonal planar co‐ordinated (orthorhombic, Pbnm (no. 62)).     

Phosphaniminato‐Acetato‐Cluster von Kupfer und Zink. Kristallstrukturen von [Cu4(NPEt3)2(O2CCH3)6] und [Zn4(NPEt3)2(O2CCH3)6]

Phosphoraneiminato Acetate Cluster of Copper and Zinc. Crystal Structures of [Cu₄(NPEt₃)₂(O₂CCH₃)₆] and [Zn₄(NPEt₃)₂(O₂CCH₃)₆] The anhydrous acetates of copper(II) and zinc react with the silylated phosphaneimine Me₃SiNPEt₃ in dichloromethane at 20 °C forming the mixed phosphoraneiminato acetate clusters [Cu₄(NPEt₃)₂(O₂CCH₃)₆] ( 1 ), which forms emerald crystals, and colourless [Zn₄(NPEt₃)₂ · (O₂CCH₃)₆] ( 2 ). In spite of analogous composition the structures of 1 and 2 are completely different. In the asymmetric unit of 1 three copper atoms of an almost isosceles triangle are linked via two nitrogen atoms of the NPEt₃^– groups to form a trigonal bipyramidal aggregate. One of these three copper atoms is chelated by an acetate group, another one is connected with the fourth copper atom via three μ₂‐O₂C–CH₃ groups. The asymmetric units are associated via a μ₂‐O₂C–CH₃ group and a μ₃‐OC(O)CH₃ group at a time so that infinite chains result. In 2 two zinc atoms are linked via the nitrogen atoms of the two NPEt₃^– groups to form an almost centrosymmetric four‐membered ring. Both nitrogen atoms of the four‐membered ring are connected with another zinc atom each. These zinc atoms again are linked with the zinc atoms of the Zn₂N₂ four‐membered ring via two μ₂‐O₂C–CH₃ groups each and additionally coordinated with a terminal acetate ligand each.     

Synthese und Untersuchung von kohlenstoff‐ und stickstoffzentrierten (Z) trigonal‐prismatischen Wolframclustern des Formeltyps A[W6ZCl18]

Synthesis and Characterization of Carbon‐ and Nitrogen‐Centered (Z) Trigonal Prismatic Tungsten Clusters of the Formula Type A[W₆ZCl₁₈] Solid state reactions of tungsten(IV) chloride and carbodiimides (cyanamides) of lithium, sodium, calcium and silver yielded black crystalline powders of centered (Z) trigonal‐prismatic tungsten cluster compounds having the general formula A[W₆ZCl₁₈] with A = Li, Na, Ca, Ag and Z = C, N. Crystal structures of the corresponding compounds were investigated by powder and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The nature of the central atom was studied by mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry. It turned out that the central atom can be C (in the case of the lithium and sodium compound) or N (in the case of the sodium and calcium compound).
