Syntheses,crystal structures,and characterizations of two novel cubane-like and double cubane-like molybdenum-copper-sulphur clusters {MoCu3S3(S2COEt)}(O)(Ph3P)3 and {Mo2Cu6S6(SCMe3)2}(O)2(Ph3P)4

Two novel heterometallic cubane-like and double cubane-like clusters, {MoCu₃S₃(S₂COEt)}(O)(Ph₃P)₃ I and {Mo₂Cu₆S₆(SCMe₃)₂}(O)₂(Ph₃P)₄ II, were synthesized by reaction of {MoCu₂S₃}(O)(Ph₃P)₃ with CuS₂COEt and CuSCMe₃, respectively. ClusterI crystallized in the triclinic space group (2) witha=12.766(6) Å,b=22.904(5) Å,c=10.522(3) Å, =99.86(2)°, =109.68(2)°, =86.84(3)°,V=2854(2) ų,Z=2,R=0.049 for 6622 observed reflections (I>5(I)) and 410 variables. ClusterII crystallized in the triclinic space group (2) with dimensionsa=14.212(4) Å,b=14.725(5) Å,c=12.396(8) Å, =110.32(4)°, =90.40(5)°, =62.88(2)°,V=2129(2) ų,Z=1,R=0.039 for 6020 observed reflections (I>3(I)) and 461 variables. ClusterI consists of a neutral cubane-like molecule with the core {MoCu₃S₃(S₂COEt)}²⁺, in which one corner of the cubane-like core is a novel triply bridging bidentate 1,1-dithiolato (xanthate, S₂COEt^–) ligand. ClusterII is a double cubane-like one, in which two cubane-like cores {MoCu₃S₃(SCMe₃)}²⁺ are connected by two Cu-S bonds of the triply bridging monothiolato (SCMe ₃ ^– ) ligand. Two different pathways of unit construction from a small heterometallic cluster {MoCu₂S₃}(O)(Ph₃P)₃ have been outlined. Comparisons of the selected bond lengths and bond angles for the cubane-like core {MoCu₃S₃ X} (X=Cl^–, Br^–, S₂COEt^–, SCMe ₃ ^– ) are given. Spectroscopic properties of the title clusters are also reported.

In Pb₂Cu₃O₂(NO₃)₂(SeO₃)₂ there are sheets, which are connected only via Pb-O bonds ranging from 2.98 Å to 3.16 Å.

     

Synthesis of novel heterobimetallic complexes of platinum(II) bridged by the mixed phosphine-phosphine oxide ligands Ph2P(CH2)2P(O)Ph2

Summary The mixed phosphine-phosphine oxides Ph₂P(CH₂)_n-P(O)Ph₂ (n = 1 or 2) react with K₂PtCl₄ to give cis-{PtCl₂- ¹-Ph₂P(CH₂) _n P(O)Ph₂]₂}. Treatment of the latter (n = 2) with transition metal chlorides MCl₂·nH₂O, or with Me₂SnCl₂, SnCl₄·5H₂O, Th(NO₃)₄·xH₂O or UO₂(NO₃)₂· 6H₂O, gives novel heterobimetallic complexes identified as cis-{PtCl₂[-Ph₂P(CH₂)₂P(O)Ph₂]₂MX₂}·nH₂O. Attempts to prepare similar heterobimetallic complexes using the starting complexes {PtX₂[ ¹-Ph₂PCH₂P(O)-Ph₂]₂} (X = C1), cis- or CN, trans-] were unsuccessful. Possible reasons for this are discussed.     

Die Kristallstruktur von Cu7(OH)6(TeO3)2(SO4)2

The crystal structure of the new phase Cu₇(OH)₆(TeO₃)₂(SO₄)₂ [a=7.389 (1),b=7.638 (1),c=7.662 (2) Å, =75.17 (1), =75.90 (1), =84.19 (1)°;Z=1] was determined by direct methods andFourier summations from X-ray intensities, and was refined in space group P -C _i ¹ toR=0.039. As usual, the Cu(II) atoms are coordinated to four O atoms forming approximately a square with average Cu-O=1.96 (3) Å; one or two more distant O neighbours complete the coordination. The shape of the TeO₃ group is a rather clear-cut trigonal pyramid. A disorder was found for the SO₄ tetrahedra. The compound was synthesized under hydrothermal conditions [500 (10) K, saturation vapour pressure].

Synthesis and Crystal Structure Determination of 6-(N-Isopropyl)Amidino-2-Methylbenzothiazole Hydrochloride Monohydrate and 2-Amino-6-(N-Isopropyl)Amidinobenzothiazole Hydrochloride

Two novel substituted amidino-benzothiazoles 6-(N-isopropyl)amidino-2-methylbenzothiazole 4 and 2-amino-6-(N-isopropyl)amidinobenzothiazole 6 were prepared in multistep synthesis in form of hydrochloride salts. They were characterized by means of IR, ¹H, and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The crystal structures have been also determined by X-ray analysis. Both compounds crystallize as colorless prisms in the triclinic crystal system, space group P . Crystal data: (4) a = 8.741(4) Å, b = 9.602(7) Å, c = 9.946(2) Å, = 63.94(3)°, = 79.18(2)°, = 79.68(3)°, V = 732.1(6) ų, Z = R = 0.0396; a = 8.106(1) Å, b = 9.148(2) Å, c = 9.291(2) Å, = 104.83(1)°, = 103.36(2)°, = 90.62(1)°, V = 646.2(2) ų , Z = 2, R = 0.0376. The bond distances and angles in both structures are almost similar. Between these two structures was found the difference in the orientation of the 6-(N-isopropyl)amidino moiety with respect to the benzothiazole ring. In the crystal structures of the both compounds the intermolecular hydrogen bonds form three-dimensional networks.     

O-H ... O(S) hydrogen bonds in 2-hydroxy(thio)benzamides. Survey of spectroscopic and structural data

Summary From a survey of spectroscopic and structural data of six corresponding 2-hydroxybenzamides and 2-hydroxythiobenzamides (amide, N-methylamide, N,N-dimethylamide, piperidide, morpholide, 2,6-dimethylpiperidide) remarkable similarities between O(N)-H ... O and O(N)-H ... S hydrogen-bonds are obtained, concerning both, hydrogen-bond patterns and hydrogen-bond strengths. In dilute solution the OH groups of all compounds are intramolecularly associated to the (thio)carbonyl O (S) atoms with distinctly larger hydrogen-bond strengths for primary and secondary amides [ (O-H)=2950–3020 cm^–1, (OH)=12.16–11.99 ppm] and thioamides [ (O-H)=2960–3000 cm^–1, (OH)=11.65–11.13 ppm], than for tertiary amides [ (O-H)=3200–3250 cm^–1, (OH)=9.95–8.95 ppm] and thioamides [ (O-H)=3245–3330 cm^–1, (OH)=8.09–7.06 ppm]. In the solid state, the OH groups of the primary and secondary (thio)amides are also engaged in rather strong intramolecular O-H ... O=C [O ... O=2.51 Å, (O-H)=2700–2750 cm^–1] and O-H ... S=C [O ... S=2.90–2.94 Å, (O-H)=2700–2840 cm^–1] hydrogen-bonds; thetrans-NH groups of the primary (thio)amides and the NH groups of the secondary (thio)amides connect the molecules to N-H ... O-H [N ... O=2.93–3.10 Å, (N-H)=3319–3407 cm^–1] hydrogen-bonded chains; the remainingcis-NH groups of the primary (thio)amides give rise to eight-membered cyclic dimers via N-H ... O=C [N ... O=2.93 Å, (N-H)=3226 cm^–1] and N-H ... S=C [N ... S=3.46–3.47 Å, (N-H)=3233–3277 cm^–1] hydrogen-bonds. Contrary, the OH groups of the tertiary (thio)amides are intermolecular associated in the solid state and link the molecules to O-H ... O=C [O ... O=2.63–2.75 Å, (O-H)=3075–3135 cm^–1] and O-H ... S=C [O ... S=3.18–3.26 Å, (O-H)=3130–3190 cm^–1] hydrogen-bonded chains.

Isostructural crystals of aluminum hexamolybdenocobaltate(III) and hexamolybdenocromate(III) Al[MMo₆O₁₈(OH)₆] · 16H₂O (M = Co(III) and Cr(III)) were studied using X-ray diffraction analysis. These compounds crystallize in the triclinic system: space group P , Z = 1, (calcd) = 2.665 and 2.611 g/cm³, respectively. The unit cell parameters were determined: for aluminum hexamolybdenocobaltate(III), a = 6.796(1) Å, b= 11.248(2) Å, c = 11.568(2) Å; = 101.36(2)°, = 96.95(2)°, = 102.23(2)°; for aluminum hexamolybdenocromate(III), a = 6.838(1) Å, b = 11.312(2) Å, c = 11.605(2) Å; = 101.29(3)°, = 97.13(3)°, = 102.15(3)°.     

The First New Hydrogen-Bonded Heterohexanuclear Complex [(salen)Cu]4[(salen)Fe(H2O)2]2(ClO4)2: Molecular and Crystal Structure and Magnetic Properties

The preparation, magnetic properties, and crystal structure of [(salen)Cu]₄[(salen)Fe(H₂O)₂]₂(ClO₄)₂ via hydrogen bonding are described [salen=N,N-ethylenebis (salicylideneiminate)]. Crystals are triclinic, of space group , with cell constants a=12.853(3), b=13.921(3), c=14.251(3) Å, =68.68(3)°, =87.86(3)°, =86.82(3)°, and Z=1. The structure was solved and refined to R=0.064 and R=0.068. The structure comprises the hexanuclear units which result from the linking of four mononuclear fragments [(salen)Cu] and two mononuclear fragment [(salen)Fe(H₂O)]⁺, through Cu -O H -O -Fe -O -H O -Cu hydrogen bonds of coordinating H₂O. In this complex, Fe^III ions are in almost square-planar surroundings. The temperature dependences of the magnetic susceptibilities of the complex have been studied in the 4.2–300 K range, indicating the presence of an antiferromagnetic interactions between metal ions.     

Crystal and Molecular Structure of Ph3P+-CH = CH-NHC6H3(2-O-)(4-NO2)

Treatment of [Ph₃P⁺-CH = CH-NHC₆H₃(2-OH)(4-NO₂)]Cl^- with ethanolic KOH leads to proton abstraction not from nitrogen, but from oxygen to give a betaine-type compound Ph₃P⁺-CH = CHNHC₆H₃ · (2-O^-)(4-NO₂). Its structure was proved by means of X-ray diffraction. The C = C distance [1.341(3) Å] unambiguously points to a double bond. Single crystals of the betaine are monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c; unit cell parameters: a 9.028(4), b 14.066(6), and c 18.799(10) Å; 90, 76.23(4), and 90°. The unit cell contains two dimers bound by strong inter- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Previously published IR and ¹H NMR data do not contradict the betaine structure of the compound obtained.     

Die Kristallstrukturen der Kupfer(II)-oxo-selenite Cu2O(SeO3) (kubisch und monoklin) und Cu4O(SeO3)3 (monoklin und triklin)

Syntheses within the system CuO-SeO₂-H₂O revealed four copper(II)-oxo-selenites. The crystal structures of these compounds were determined by single crystal X-ray techniques. Chemical formulae, lattice parameters and space groups are: Cu₂O(SeO₃)-I [a=8.925 (1) Å, P2₁3], Cu₂O(SeO₃)-II [a=6.987 (5) Å,b=5.953 (4) Å,c=8.429 (6) Å, =92.17 (3)°, P2₁/n], Cu₄O(SeO₃)₃-I [a=15.990 (8) Å,b=13.518 (8) Å,c=17.745 (12) Å, =90.49 (5)°, P2₁/a], and Cu₄O(SeO₃)₃-II [a=7.992 (6) Å,b=8.141 (6) Å,c=8.391 (6) Å, =77.34 (3)°, =65.56 (3)°, =81.36 (3)°, ].All the Cu atoms are-with one exception-[4], [4+1], and [4+2] coordinated by O atoms. The four nearest O atoms are more or less distorted square planar arranged. Within the CuO₄ squares the Cu-O bond lengths are significantly shorter for the [4] coordinated O atoms as compared with those of the [4+1] and [4+2] coordinated Cu atoms. The exception in the coordination of the Cu atoms is the Cu(1) atom in Cu₂O(SeO₃)-I with the site symmetry 3, which is trigonal dipyramidal [5] coordinated. A common feature of these four crystal structures is, that O atoms outside the SeO₃ groups are tetrahedrally coordinated by four Cu(II) atoms. The Se atoms are as usual [3] coordinated, building up SeO₃ pyramids. In all these four compounds the copper-oxygen polyhedra are combined to a three-dimensional network.

     

The structure and spectra of bis(ethylenediamine)nickel(II)-tetracyanopalladate(II), Ni(NH2CH2CH2NH2)2Pd(CN)4

The structure of bis(ethylenediamine)nickel(II)tetracyanopalladate(II), Ni(NH₂CH₂CH₂NH₂)₂Pd(CN)₄, has been determined from three-dimensional X-ray data, using Weissenberg photographs. The compound crystallizes with two molecules in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a=7.174(10), b=10.740(15), c=10.135(15) Å, =115.0(5)°. The measured and the calculated density is 1.83 g/cm³. Anisotropic refinement gave a finalR factor of 10.2%. The structure consists of infinite chains, -Pd-C-N-Ni-N-C-, parallel to thec-axis. Two trans-nitrogen atoms of the square Pd(CN) ₄ ^2– are linked to Ni, leading thus to a polynuclear compound with an octahedral [NiN₆] group in agreement with visible and infrared spectra. The trans-Ni(NH₂CH₂CH₂NH₂)₂(NC)₂-group has an asymmetric gauche ()-conformation. Average distances are: Pd-C: 1.96 Å, CN: 1.15 Å, Ni-N: 2.08 Å.

Diaqua[N,N-di(2-carboxyethyl)-o-anisidinato]copper(II) Dihydrate [Cu(o-Andp)(H2O)2] · 2H2O: Synthesis and Crystal Structure

Crystals of [Cu(o-Andp)(H₂O)₂] · 2H₂O (where o-Andp^2–is -anisidine-N,N-di-3-propionate) were synthesized and studied using X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystals are triclinic: a= 12.063(1) Å, b= 12.483(3) Å, c= 13.586(2) Å, = 91.29(1)°, = 111.67(1)°, = 104.00(1)°, V= 1830.5(5) ų, space group P , Z= 2, and R= 0.0528 for 5965 reflections with I2(I). The two crystallographically independent complexes are isostructural. The tetragonal–bipyramidal coordination of copper(III) involves three O atoms, the N atom of the tetradentate ligand o-Andp^2–, and two O atoms from water. The aminodipropionate group of the ligand (average Cu–O 1.939 Å and Cu–N 2.051 Å) and one of the coordinated water molecules (Cu–O(w) 1.991 Å) lie in the equatorial plane. The second water molecule (Cu–O(w) 2.32 Å) and the methoxy O atom of o-Andp^2–(Cu–O 2.37 Å) are in the apical positions of the bipyramid.     

On the crystal chemistry of three copper(II)-arsenates: Cu3(AsO4)2-III,Na4Cu(AsO4)2, and KCu4(AsO4)3

The three copper(II)-arsenates were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions; their crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods:Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III:a=5.046(2) Å,b=5.417(2) Å,c=6.354(2) Å, =70.61(2)°, =86.52(2)°, =68.43(2)°,Z=1, space group ,R=0.035 for 1674 reflections with sin / 0.90 Å^–1.Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₂:a=4.882(2) Å,b=5.870(2) Å,c=6.958(3) Å, =98.51(2)°, =90.76(2)°, =105.97(2)°,Z=1, space group ,R=0.028 for 2157 reflections with sin / 0.90 Å^–1.KCu₄(AsO₄)₃:a=12.234(5) Å,b=12.438(5) Å,c=7.307(3) Å, =118.17(2)°,Z=4, space group C2/c,R=0.029 for 1896 reflections with sin / 0.80 Å^–1.Within these three compounds the Cu atoms are square planar [4], tetragonal pyramidal [4+1], and tetragonal bipyramidal [4+2] coordinated by O atoms; an exception is the Cu(2)^[4+1] atom in Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III: the coordination polyhedron is a representative for the transition from a tetragonal pyramid towards a trigonal bipyramid. In KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ the Cu(1)^[4]O₄ square and the As(1)O₄ tetrahedron share a common O—O edge of 2.428(5) Å, resulting in distortions of both the CuO₄ square and the AsO₄ tetrahedron. The two Na atoms in Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₂ are [6] coordinated, the K atom in KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ is [8] coordinated by O atoms.Die drei Kupfer(II)-Arsenate wurden unter Hydrothermalbedingungen gezüchtet und ihre Kristallstrukturen mittels Einkristall-Röntgenbeugungsmethoden ermittelt:Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III:a = 5.046(2) Å,b = 5.417(2) Å,c = 6.354(2) Å, = 70.61 (2)°, = 86.52(2)°, = 68.43(2)°,Z = 1, Raumgruppe ,R = 0.035 für 1674 Reflexe mit sin / 0.90 Å^–1.Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₂:a = 4.882(2) Å,b = 5.870(2) Å,c = 6.958(3) Å, = 98.51(2)°, = 90.76(2)°, = 105.97(2)°,Z = 1, Raumgruppe ,R = 0.028 für 2157 Reflexe mit sin / 0.90 Å^–1.KCu₄(AsO₄)₃:a = 12.234(5) Å,b = 12.438(5) Å,c = 7.307(3) Å, = 118.17(2)°,Z = 4, Raumgruppe C2/c,R = 0.029 für 1896 Reflexe mit sin / 0.80 Å^–1.Die Cu-Atome in diesen drei Verbindungen sind durch O-Atome quadratisch planar [4], tetragonal pyramidal [4 + 1] und tetragonal dipyramidal [4 + 2]-koordiniert; eine Ausnahme ist das Cu(2)^{[4 + 1]}-Atom in Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III: Das Koordinationspolyeder stellt einen Vertreter des Übergangs von einer tetragonalen Pyramide zu einer trigonalen Dipyramide dar. In KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ haben das Cu(1)^[4]O₄-Quadrat und das As(1)O₄-Tetraeder eine gemeinsame O—O-Kante von 2.428(5) Å, was eine Verzerrung der beiden Koordinationsfiguren CuO₄-Quadrat und AsO₄-Tetraeder bedingt. Die zwei Na-Atome in Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₃ sind durch O-Atome [6]-koordiniert, das K-Atom in KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ ist [8]-koordiniert.

Complex of podand 1,2-bis(2-(o-hydroxyphenoxy)ethyloxy)ethane (L) with potassium thiocyanate, [K₂(NCS)₂L₂] (I) was synthesized and studied using X-ray diffraction analysis: space group P , a = 7.771 Å, b = 11.711 Å, c = 11.965 Å, = 72.22°, = 79.21°, = 89.07°, Z = 1. Structure I was solved by direct method and anisotropically refined by the full-matrix least-squares method to R = 0.040 for all 4370 independent reflections (CAD4 autodiffractometer, MoK ). Structure I contains [K(NCS)L] monomers of the host–guest type united into centrosymmetrical [K₂(NCS)₂L₂] dimers via two bridging OH groups (one group from two L podands). In the monomer, the L podand appears as though to envelope the octacoordinated K⁺ cation, whose the coordination polyhedron is a strongly distorted hexagonal bipyramid with all six oxygen atoms of the L podand in its base and the N atom of the SCN^– ligand and the O atom of one of OH group of the neighboring (in dimer) L podand at its axial vertices. Molecules of I in crystal are joined through the O–H···N hydrogen bonds to form broad infinite chains along the x-axis.

A total of 3510 reflections were collected by counter techniques using MoK radiation. The structure was refined on 2597 reflections with I > 2.58 (I) by full matrix least squares, using anisotropic temperature factors for all nonhydrogen atoms, to give a final R factor of 0.082. The overall configuration of the distorted octahedral complex istrans-dichloro-cis-bis[ethyl(diphenyl)phosphineoxide]cis-(oxo) imido with the molybdenum formally in the oxidation state (VI).

The potential functions of internal rotation around the C -S bond in the C₆H₅S(O)CH₃ and C₆H₅S(O)CF₃ molecules were obtained by ab initio MP2(full)/6-31+G* calculations. The stationary points were identified by solving the vibrational problems. The structures in which the plane of the C -S-C bonds is approximately perpendicular to the benzene ring plane correspond to the energy minimum. The barriers to rotation around the C -S bond, corrected for the zero-point vibration energy, are 21.29 [C₆H₅S(O)CH₃] and 28.98 [C₆H₅S(O)CF₃] kJ mol⁻¹. The bond angles (deg) are as follows: 95.7 (CSC), 107.1 (C SO), 106.3 (C SO) in C₆H₅S(O)CH₃; 93.5 (CSC), 108.2 (C SO), 105.2 (C SO) in C₆H₅S(O)CF₃. The bond lengths are as follows (Å): 1.520 (S=O), 1.804 (C -S), 1.810 (C -S) in C₆H₅S(O)CH₃; 1.507 (S=O), 1.799 (C -S), 1.870 (C -S) in C₆H₅S(O)CF₃. According to the results of NBO calculations, the formally double S=O bond consists of a strongly polarized covalent σ bond (S→O) and an almost ionic bond. An increase in the S=O bond multiplicity relative to a single bond is mainly due to hyperconjugation by the mechanism n(O)→σ*(C -S) and n(O)→σ*(C -S) and, to a lesser extent, by interaction of the oxygen lone electron pairs with the Rydberg orbitals of the S atoms, characterized by a large contribution of the d component.__________Translated from Zhurnal Obshchei Khimii, Vol. 75, No. 1, 2005, pp. 96–104.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Bzhezovskii, Il’chenko, Chura, Gorb, Yagupol’skii.

In the centrosymmetric dimer, the Ni...Ni distance is 3.254(2) Å; the coordination polyhedron of Ni is a square pyramid (the coordination number is 5) formed by the donor O and N atoms of LH ligands acting as the bidentate-cyclic and bidentate bridged-cyclic structures. The Ni–O and Ni–N distances are 1.989(7) and 2.032(8) Å, respectively (for the atoms forming the pyramid base), and 2.000(8) Å to the apical N atom. The Ni atom is displaced from the base to the apex of the pyramid by 0.35 Å. The interatomic distances and the bond angles in the ligands agree with those for the previously studied M(LR)₂ complexes. The distances between the Ni(II) ions and the O O atoms inside the Ni(LH)₂ fragments are 5.39(1) and 5.45(1) Å, the intermolecular Ni...O distances exceed 6 Å, and the O...O distances are as long as 4.73(1) Å.Institute of Inorgamic Chemistry, Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences.
