The tripodal ligand N-tris(2-benzimidazolylmethyl)-amine (ntb) was used for the preparation of zinc(II) and iron(III) complexes, [Zn(SCN)(ntb)](SCN) · ⁱPrpOH ( 1 ) and [Fe(acac)(ntb)](ClO₄)₂ · 2CH₂Cl₂ · ⁱPrpOH ( 2 ). 1 has a highly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal ZnN₅ coordination geometry. The donor atoms are nitrogens of one amine, three benzimidazoles and one SCN^?. A striking feature of the complex is the length of the Zn? N_amine bond of 2.539(6)Å. The octahedral N₄O₂ coordination sphere of the iron in 2 is less distorted than that of the zinc in 1 . The metal is surrounded by an amine and three benzimidazole nitrogens of the ligand and two oxygens of the bidentate acetylacetonate co-ligand. The Fe? O bond lengths differ by about 0.1 Å. As for the unusual long Zn? N bond in 1 this is a result of a trans effect. 1 crystallizes in the space group P1 with: a = 9.530(1)Å, b = 13.402(1)Å, c = 13.578(2)Å, α = 98.83(1), β = 95.19(1), γ = 101.21(1)°, Z = 2; 2 is also triclinic, space group P1 , with: a = 9.875(6)Å, b = 12.929(10)Å, c = 18.635(15)Å, α = 94.95(8)°, β = 101.01(6)°, γ = 111.09(4)°, Z = 2.

Complexation of Alkali Triflates by Crown Ethers: Synthesis and Crystal Structure of [Na(12‐crown‐4)2][SO3CF3], [Na(15‐crown‐5)][SO3CF3], [Rb(18‐crown‐6)][SO3CF3], and [Cs(18‐crown‐6)][SO3CF3]

Complexes of trifluoromethanesulfonates (triflates) with alkali metals Na, Rb, Cs have been prepared in the presence of various macrocyclic polyether crowns [(12‐crown‐4), (15‐crown‐5) and (18‐crown‐6)]. Depending on the combination of alkali ion with crown, the complexes include separated ion pairs [Na(12‐crown‐4)₂] [SO₃CF₃] ( 1 ) and contact ion pairs [Na(15‐crown‐5)] [SO₃CF₃] ( 2 ), [Rb(18‐crown‐6)] [SO₃CF₃] ( 3 ), and [Cs(18‐crown‐6)] [SO₃CF₃] ( 4 ), in which the triflate acts as a bidentate ligand. It is shown that the choice of crown ether is of paramount importance in determining the solid‐state structural outcome. The complex resulting from the pairing of crown ether ( 1 ) develops, when the crown ether is too small in relation to the alkali ion radius. When the cavity size of the crown ether is matched with the alkali ion radius, simple monomeric structures are identified in 2 , 3 and 4 .

The terminal Se? Cl bonds (average 2.317 Å in 1 , 2.223 Å in 2 ) are much shorter than the Se? Cl bridges (av. 2.661 Å in 1 , 2.652 Å in 2 ). The stereochemical activity of the Se^IV lone electron pair causes severe distortion of the central Se₂Cl₂ ring in the centrosymmetric Se₂Cl₁₀^2? ion.

Cu3SbS3: Zur Kristallstruktur und Polymorphie

Cu₃SbS₃: Crystal Structure and Polymorphism The hitherto unknown crystal structure of β-Cu₃SbS₃ at room temperature could be determined from a twinned crystal. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/c (No. 14), with a = 7.808(1), b = 10.233(2) and c = 13.268(2) Å, β = 90.31(1)°, V = 1 060.1(2) ų, Z = 8. An Extended-Hückel-Calculation shows weak bonding interactions between copper atoms which are coordinated trigonal planar. At ?9°C a first order phase transition occurs and the crystals disintegrate. The low-temperature modification (γ) crystallizes in the orthorhombic system with a = 7.884(2), b = 10.219(2) and c = 6.623(2) Å, V = 533.6(2) ų (?100°C). At 121°C a phase transition of higher order is observed. The high-temperature polymorph (α) of Cu₃SbS₃ is orthorhombic again. From high-temperature precession photographs the space groups Pnma (No. 62) or Pna2₁ (No. 33) can be derived. The lattice constants at 200°C are a = 7.828(3), b = 10.276(4) and c = 6.604(3) Å, V = 531.2(2) ų.     

Darstellung,Kristallstrukturen, Schwingungsspektren und Normalkoordinatenanalysen von trans-(PNP)[TcCl4(Py)2] und trans-(PNP)[TcBr4(Py)2]

Preparation, Crystal Structures, Vibrational Spectra, and Normal Coordinate Analysis of trans-(PNP)[TcCl₄(Py)₂] and trans-(PNP)[TcBr₄(Py)₂] By reaction of (PNP)₂[TcX₆] with pyridine in the presence of [BH₄]^? (PNP)[TcX₄(Py)₂], X = Cl, Br, are formed. X-ray structure determinations on single crystals of these isotypic Tc^III complexes (monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, Z = 2, for X = Cl: a = 13.676(4), b = 9.102(3), c = 17.144(2) Å, β = 91.159(1)°; for X = Br: a = 13.972(2), b = 9.146(3), c = 17.285(4) Å, β = 90.789(2)°) result in the averaged bond distances Tc? Cl: 2.386, Tc? Br: 2.519, Tc? N: 2.132(3) (X = Cl) and 2.143(4) Å (X = Br). The two pyridine rings are coplanar and vertical to the X? Tc? X-axes, forming angles of 42.28° (X = Cl) and 43.11° (X = Br). Using the molecular parameters of the X-ray structure determination and assuming D_2h point symmetry, the IR and Raman spectra are assigned by normal coordinate analysis based on a modified valence force field. Good agreement between observed and calculated frequencies is obtained with the valence force constants f_d(TcCl) = 1.45, f_d(TcBr) = 1.035, f_d(TcN) = 1.37 (X = Cl) and 1.45 mdyn/ Å (X = Br), respectively.

The structures of 1 , 2 , and 3 consist of infinite, one-dimensional anionic chains containing X₂Q₆^4– units linked by Au⁺ ions and charge balancing K⁺/Cs⁺ ions situated between the chains. All compounds were investigated with differential thermal analysis, FT-IR, and solid state UV/VIS diffuse reflectance spectroscopy.     

Die Tieftemperaturmodifikationen von Ag6Si2O7 und Ag6Ge2O7 – Darstellung,Kristallstruktur und Vergleich der Ag?Ag-Abstände

On the Low Temperature Modifications of Ag₆Si₂O₇ and Ag₆Ge₂O₇ – Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Comparison of Ag? Ag Distances For the first time, single crystals of Ag₆Si₂O₇ and Ag₆Ge₂O₇ have been obtained by solid state reactions of the binary oxides at temperatures of 350°C while applying oxygen pressures of 700 bar. According to the results of X-ray crystal structure determinations both compounds crystallize isostructural in P2₁ (Ag₆Si₂O₇: a = 5.3043(5) Å, b = 9.7533(7) Å, c = 15.9283(13) Å, β = 91.165(8)°, 3881 independent reflections, R1 = 3.3%, wR2 = 7.2%; Ag₆Ge₂O₇: a = 5.3713(4) Å, b = 9.9835(8) Å, c = 16.2249(14) Å, β = 90.904(8)°, 2111 independent reflections, R1 = 4.3%, wR2 = 6.0%, Z = 4). The crystal structures contain two independent M₂O₇^6? anions, one in a staggered, and the other in an ecliptic conformation. The cationic partial structure may be described as a distorted bcc arrangement of Ag⁺ and M⁴⁺. Comparison of the structures with respect to the Ag? Ag separations reveals the latter to be probably due to intrinsic d¹⁰–d¹⁰ bonding interactions as far as the range of 2.89 Å to 3.25 Å is considered.
