Eine neue Synthese für Nitrosyl‐Salze mit schwach koordinierenden Anionen am Beispiel von NO[B(CF3)4]

A New Synthesis for Nitrosyl Salts with Weakly Coordinating Anions Exemplified by NO[B(CF₃)₄] A new synthesis for nitrosyl salts of weakly coordinating anions is described, using the corresponding guanidinium salts as starting materials. The guanidinium salt [C(NH₂)₃][B(CF₃)₄] was obtained by a metathesis reaction of K[B(CF₃)₄] with [C(NH₂)₃]Cl. Treatment of the guanidinium salt with liquid NO₂ resulted in analytical pure NO[B(CF₃)₄] in quantitative yield. The guanidinium and nitrosyl tetrakis(trifluormethyl)borates were characterized by vibrational and NMR spectroscopy as well as by DSC measurements.

The Synthesis,Crystal, Molecular and Electronic Structure of [ReCl2(NO)(py)3]

In line with our investigations of rhenium nitrosyl complexes, we have studied the reaction of [ReCl₃(NO)(OPPh₃)(PPh₃)] with pyridine. The [ReCl₂(NO)(py)₃] complex obtained in this reaction has been characterised by IR, electronic spectra and magnetochemical measurements; ligand field parameters and the electronic structure have been determined.

Zwei Mercuri‐Ammin‐Komplexe: [Hg(NH3)2][HgCl3]2 und [Hg(NH3)4](ClO4)2

Two Mercuric Ammoniates: [Hg(NH₃)₂][HgCl₃]₂ and [Hg(NH₃)₄](ClO₄)₂ [Hg(NH₃)₂][HgCl₃]₂ ( 1 ) is obtained by saturating an equimolar solution of HgCl₂ and NH₄Cl with Hg(NH₂)Cl at 75 °C. 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pmna with a = 591.9(1) pm, b = 800.3(1) pm, c = 1243.3(4) pm, Z = 2. The structure consists of linear cations [Hg(NH₃)₂]²⁺ and T‐shaped anions [HgCl₃]^—. The coordination sphere of mercury is ?effectively”? completed to compressed hexagonal bipyramids and distorted octahedra, respectively. Single crystals of [Hg(NH₃)₄](ClO₄)₂ ( 2 ) are obtained by passing gaseous ammonia through a solution of mercuric perchlorate, while the solution was cooled to temperatures below 10 °C. 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 791.52(9) pm, b = 1084.3(2) pm, c = 1566.4(2) pm, β = 120.352(1)°, Z = 4. The structure consists of compressed [Hg(NH₃)₄]²⁺ tetrahedra and perchlorate anions. The packing of the heavy atoms Hg and Cl is analogous to the baddeleyite (α‐ZrO₂) type of structure.     

Synthesis and Molecular Structure of trans‐[IrCl(NO)(PtBu2H)2]BF4

The synthesis and structural characterization of trans‐[IrCl(NO)(PtBu₂H)₂]BF₄ ( 1 ) is reported. The title compound was prepared in good yield in the reaction of in situ‐prepared trans‐[IrCl(coe)(PtBu₂H)₂] (coe = cis‐cyclooctene) with an appropriate amount of nitrosonium tetrafluoridoborate in dichloromethane at room temperature.

f-Element/crown ether complexes, 11. Preparation and structural characterization of [UO2(OH2)5] [ClO4]2·3(15-crown-5)·CH3CN and [UO2(OH2)5] [ClO4]2·2(18-crown-6)·2 CH3CN·H2O

The reaction of UO₂(ClO₄)·nH₂O with 15-crown-5 and 18-crown-6 in acetonitrile yielded the title complexes. [UO₂(OH₂)₅] [ClO₄]₂·3(15-crown-5)·CH₃CN crystallizes in the triclinic space groupPT with (at–150°C)a=8.288(6),b=12.874(7),c=24.678(7) Å, =82.62(4), =76.06(5), =81.06(5)°, andD _calc=1.67 g cm^–3 forZ=2 formula units. Least-squares refinement using 6248 independent observed reflections [F _o5(F _o)] led toR=0.111. [UO₂(OH₂)₅] [ClO₄]₂·2(18-crown-6)·2CH₃CN·H₂O is orthorhombicP2₁2₁2₁ with (at–150 °C)a=12.280(2),b=17.311(7),c=22.056(3) Å,D _calc=1.68 g cm^–3,Z=4, andR=0.032 (3777 observed reflections). In each complex the crown ether molecules are hydrogen bonded to the water molecules of the pentagonal bipyramidal [UO₂(OH₂)₅]²⁺ ions, each crown ether having exclusive use of two hydrogen atoms from one water molecule and one hydrogen from another water molecule. In the 15-crown-5 complex the remaining hydrogen bonding interaction is between one of the water molecules and one of the perchlorate anions. The solvent molecule has a close contact between the methyl group and a perchlorate anion suggesting a weak interaction. There are a total of three U-OH...OClO₃ hydrogen bonds to the two perchlorate anions in [UO₂(OH₂)₅] [ClO₄]₂·(18-crown-6)·2CH₃CN ·H₂O. The remaining coordinated water hydrogen bond is to the uncoordinated 2H₂O molecule, which in turn is hydrogen bonded to a perchlorate oxygen atom and an acetonitrile nitrogen atom. One solvent methyl group interacts with an anion, the other with one of the 18-crown-6 molecules. Unlike the 15-crown-5 structure, the hydrogen bonding in this complex results in a polymeric network with formula units joined by hydrogen bonds from one of the solvent molecules and the uncoordinated water molecule.

[Fe2(μsb‐CO)(CO)3(NO)(μ‐PtBu2)(μ‐Ph2PCH2PPh2)]: Synthese,Kristallstruktur und Koordinationsisomerie

[Fe₂(μ_sb‐CO)(CO)₃(NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂)]: Synthesis, X‐ray Crystal Structure and Isomerization Na[Fe₂(μ‐CO)(CO)₆(μ‐P^tBu₂)] ( 1 ) reacts with [NO][BF₄] at —60 °C in THF to the nitrosyl complex [Fe₂(CO)₆(NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)] ( 2 ). The subsequent reaction of 2 with phosphanes (L) under mild conditions affords the complexes [Fe₂(CO)₅(NO)L(μ‐P^tBu₂)], L = PPh₃, ( 3a ); η‐dppm (dppm = Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂), ( 3b ). In this case the phosphane substitutes one carbonyl ligand at the iron tetracarbonyl fragment in 2 , which was confirmed by the X‐ray crystal structure analysis of 3a . In solution 3b loses one CO ligand very easily to give dppm as bridging ligand on the Fe‐Fe bond. The thus formed compound [Fe₂(CO)₄(NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 4 ) occurs in solution in different solvents and over a wide temperature range as a mixture of the two isomers [Fe₂(μ_sb‐CO)(CO)₃(NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 4a ) and [Fe₂(CO)₄(μ‐NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 4b ). 4a was unambiguously characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray structure analysis while 4b was confirmed both by NMR investigations in solution as well as by means of DFT calculations. Furthermore, the spontaneous reaction of [Fe₂(CO)₄(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 5 ) with NO at —60 °C in toluene yields a complicated mixture of products containing [Fe₂(μ‐CO)(CO)₄(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 6 ) as main product beside the isomers 4a and 4b occuring in very low yields.     

Bis(dimethylamino)trifluoromethylsulfonium Salze: [CF3S(NMe2)2]+[Me3SiF2]‐, [CF3S(NMe2)2]+[HF2]‐ und [CF3S(NMe2)2]+[CF3S]‐

Bis(dimethylamino)trifluoro sulfonium Salts: [CF₃S(NMe₂)₂]⁺[Me₃SiF₂]^‐, [CF₃S(NMe₂)₂]⁺ [HF₂]^‐ and [CF₃S(NMe₂)₂]⁺[CF₃S]^‐ From the reaction of CF₃SF₃ with an excess of Me₂NSiMe₃ [CF₃(NMe₂)₂]⁺[Me₃SiF₂]^‐ (CF₃‐BAS‐fluoride) ( 5 ), from CF₃SF₃/CF₃SSCF₃ and Me₂NSiMe₃ [CF₃S(NMe₂)₂]⁺‐ [CF₃S]^‐ ( 7 ) are isolated.

Counter‐anion role in the formation of two supramolecular complexes: [Ag2(DPP)2](ClO4)2·CH3CN and [Ag2(DPP)2(NO3)2] {DPP is N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine}

The title compounds, bis{μ‐N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine‐κ²N¹:P}disilver bis(perchlorate) acetonitrile monosolvate, [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂](ClO₄)₂·CH₃CN, (1), and bis{μ‐N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine‐κ²N¹:P}bis[(nitrato‐κ²O,O)silver], [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂(NO₃)₂], (2), each contain disilver macrocyclic [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂]²⁺ cations lying about inversion centres. The cations are constructed by two N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine (DPP) ligands linking two Ag⁺ cations in a head‐to‐tail fashion. In (1), the unique Ag⁺ cation has a near‐linear coordination geometry consisting of one pyridine N atom and one P atom from two different DPP ligands. Two ClO₄⁻ anions doubly bridge two metallomacrocycles through Ag...O and N—H...O weak interactions to form a chain extending in the c direction. The half‐occupancy acetonitrile molecule lies with its methyl C atom on a twofold axis and makes a weak N...Ag contact. In (2), there are two independent [Ag(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)]⁺ cations. The nitrate anions weakly chelate to each Ag⁺ cation, leading to each Ag⁺ cation having a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry consisting of one pyridine N atom and one P atom from two different DPP ligands, and two chelating nitrate O atoms. Each dinuclear [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂(NO₃)₂] molecule acts as a four‐node to bridge four adjacent equivalent molecules through N—H...O interactions, forming a two‐dimensional sheet parallel to the bc plane. Each sheet contains dinuclear molecules involving just Ag1 or Ag2 and these two types of sheet are stacked in an alternating fashion. The sheets containing Ag1 all lie near x = , , etc, while those containing Ag2 all lie near x = 0, 1, 2 etc. Thus, the two independent sheets are arranged in an alternating sequence at x = 0, , 1, etc. These two different supramolecular structures result from the different geometric conformations of the templating anions which direct the self‐assembly of the cations and anions.

The dicationic imidazolium‐phosphonium salt [(SIMes)PFPh₂][B(C₆F₅)₄]₂ has been prepared and shown to exhibit remarkable Lewis acidity in stoichiometric reactions and acting as an effective Lewis acid catalyst for the hydrodefluorination of fluoroalkanes and the hydrosilylation of olefins.     

Non‐Planar Lithium‐Phthalocyanine in the Double Salt (nBu4N)2[Lipc]PF6

We report the synthesis of the diamagnetic double salt bis(tetra(n‐butyl)ammonium) phthalocyanato(2‐)lithate hexafluorophosphate (nBu₄N)₂[Lipc]PF₆ [pc = phthalocyanine, nBu₄N⁺ = tetra(n‐butyl)ammonium] in dme (dme = dimethoxyethane). According to single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction structure analysis [P$\bar{1}$ , a = 8.642(2) Å, b = 12.820(3) Å, c = 15.019(3) Å, α = 83.01(3)°, β = 87.87(3)°, γ = 74.45(3)°, Z = 1, R₁ = 6.4 %], the phthalocyanine building bloc shows a substantial distortion of the macrocyclic ring from planarity. The deviation from D_4h symmetry originates from packing effects induced by the two tetra(n‐butyl)ammonium cations located above and below the macrocycle. DFT structure optimization starting from the experimental non‐planar configuration produces a fully planar complex anion [Lipc]^–.
