Das erste Alkali-Erdalkali-Oxocuprat(II,III): NaBa2Cu22+Cu3+O6

The first Alkaline Alkaline-Earth Oxocuprate (II, III): NaBa₂Cu₂²⁺Cu³⁺O₆ The compound NaBa₂Cu₃O₆ was prepared by heating of Na₂O₂, BaO₂, Cu₂O in closed Ag-tubes. X-ray single crystal investigations led to orthorhombic symmetry, space group D-Fmmm; a = 8.4229; b = 11.4418; c = 14.4063 Å; Z = 8. Cu²⁺ and Cu³⁺ show square planar polygones of four and Na⁺ trigonal prisms of six O^2?. The two barium point positions show coordination numbers C.N. = 8 and 6 + 4. The crystal structure is discussed.     

High- und Low-Spin-Verhalten des Ni3+ -Ions in oktaedrischer Koordination. (A) NiF-Polyeder

High and Low Spin Behaviour of Ni³⁺?Ions in Octahedral Coordination The compounds Cs₂NaNiF₆, Cs₂KNiF₆, Rb₂KNiF₆, K₃NiF₆, and Na₃NiF₆ were investigated by ligand field and EPR spectroscopy between 298 and 4,2 K. These fluorides ? with the exception of the first one – crystallise in the cubic elpasolite lattice or in distorted modifications of this structure type and contain the Ni³⁺ ions in the low spin configuration te. This configuration is stabilised versus the high spin alternative te by an appreciable Jahn-Teller splitting of the ²E_g-state of about 7000 cm^?1. The NiF₆-octahedra are tetragonally elongated, the distortion being dynamical at 298 K. In case of the cubic compound Rb₂KNiF₆ a transition to a tetragonal structure with c/a > 1 as a consequence of a ferrodistortive Jahn-Teller ordering is observed at lower temperatures. It is calculated from the anisotropic g-parameters, that the first excited quartet level ⁴A_2g(⁴T_1g ? te) has an energy which is about 1000 cm^?1 higher than that of the ²A_1g(²E_g ? te) groundstate. Spin-orbit interactions between the energetically neighboured ²A_1g(²E_g) and ⁴A_2g, ⁴E_g(⁴T_1g) states lead to third order contributions to the g-factors, which are very sensitive with respect to the doublet-quartet separation. In the hexagonal compound Cs₂NaNiF₆ finally, in which half of the Ni³⁺ ions occupy octahedral sites connected by common corners as in the other fluorides, while the other half is located in octahedral sites with common faces, high and low spin Ni³⁺ ions are found side by side. Obviously the latter half of these Ni³⁺ ions is geometrically restricted with respect to a Jahn-Teller distortion and hence the high spin configuration energetically favoured.     

Synthese und Untersuchung von NiNb2O6-Einkristallen mit Columbit- und Rutilstruktur

Synthesis and Investigation of NiNb₂O₆ Single Crystals of Columbite and Rutil Type C-NiNb₂O₆ (columbite type) and R-NiNb₂O₆ (rutil type) single crystals were prepared by solid state reactions. C-NiNb₂O₆ a = 14.032; b = 5.687; c = 5.033 Å, space group D—Pbcn. R-NiNb₂O₆ a = 4.710; c = 3.038 Å, space group D—P4₂/mnm. The metal positions of the rutil structure are statisticaly occupied by Ni²⁺ and Nb⁵⁺ ions. R-NiNb₂O₆ is in respect to lower temperatures a metastable compound.     

Interactions Magnetiques dans quelques Ferrites Oxyfluores a Structure Spinelle de Formule ZnxMFe2−xO4–xFx (M ? Fe,Co, Ni)

Magnetic interactions in some oxyfluoroferrites of spinel structure with the formula Zn_xMe_2?xO_4?xFx (M = Fe, Co, Ni) Whereas the ferromagnetic spin arrangement of the B-cations is not modified by the Zn²⁺?Fe³⁺ substitution in the ZnFe[Fe₂₊Fe³⁺]O_4?xF_x (0 ≤ x ≤ 0,50) spinel, this same substitution leads to a spin canting in the ZnFe[Co₂₊Fe³⁺]O_4?xF_x and ZnFe[Ni₂₊Fe³⁺]O_4?xF_x (0 ≤ x ≤ 0,80) simples. The difference in the magnetic behaviors with regard to the AB and BB interactions can be explained on the basis of the magnetic exchange theory.     

Die Kristallstruktur von Perowskiten ANiIIMVIO6. II. Das Sr2NiWO6

The Crystal Structure of Perovskites A Ni^IIM^VIO₆. II. Sr₂NiWO₆ The results of an X-ray single crystal study of the perovskite Sr[Ni^IIW^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆, ordered in the octahedral sites, are given. While Sr[Ni^IITe^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆ crystallizes in a monoclinically deformed structure of the perovskite (elpasolite) type, showing a phase transition to a tetragonal lattice at 675 °K, Sr[Ni^IIW^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆ is tetragonal already at 298°K (space group: C; a = b = 5.559 Å; c = 7.918 Å; Z = 2). The Ni? O distances found for the tungsten compound are nearly identical with those of the tellurium perovskite. In contradiction to crystal field theory very different values of the ligand field parameter Δ (ca. 25%) are observed for these two compounds however. Obviously this effect is caused by the rather different kind of bonding within the NiO₆ polyhedra in the two compounds. On the basis of the structural results the Ni? O-bonding in the two perovskites is discussed in dependence of the next nearest cationic environment.     

Stability,Formation and Dissociation Kinetics of the Pentacoordinate Ni2+ and CO2+ Complexes with 1,5-Diazacyclooctane-N,N′-diacetic Acid

The stability constants of the Ni²⁺ and Co²⁺ complexes with 1,5-diazacyclooctane-N,N′-diacetic acid (H₂DACODA) have been determined potentiometrically in 0.5M KNO₃ at 25°. Only M(DACODA) and M(DACODA)OH^? were observed. In addition the formation and dissociation kinetics of the pentacoordinate complexes M(DACODA) has been studied in aqueous solution using a stopped-flow technique. Formation follows the rate law v_f = k_f [M²⁺] [HDACODA^?]/[H⁺], which can be interpreted as a bimolecular process either between M²⁺ and DACODA^2? (k) or between MOH⁺ and HDACODA^? (k). The second order rate constants k are much higher than those expected from water exchange and can only be explained by a strong internal conjugate base effect. In the limiting case, however, this is equivalent to the second possible explanation, which assumes MOH⁺ and HDACODA^? as reactive species. The dissociation rate is given by v_d = (k^ML + k [H⁺]) · [M(DACODA)].     

Die Kristallstrukturen der hexagonalen Elpasolithe Ba3NiSb2O9 und Ba3CuSb2O9 – röntgenographische und spektroskopische Ergebnisse

The Structures of the Hexagonal Elpasolite-Type Compounds Ba₃NiSb₂O₉ and Ba₃CuSb₂O₉ The results of an X-ray single crystal study of the hexagonal elpasolite Ba(NiSb₂)⁽⁶⁾O₉ are given. (Space group: C; a = b = 5.837 Å, c = 14.392 Å; Z = 2). The structure can be described by close-packed BaO₃ layers alternating in the sequence c c h c c h … (hex. BaTiO₃ type). Groups of two octahedra with common faces are connected by SbO₆ octahedra via common corners. They are occupied alternately by Ni and Sb. The final reliability index was R = 3.0%. The Cu²⁺-compound is of the same structural type. The ligand field and EPR spectra are discussed in comparison with related Ni²⁺ and Cu²⁺ compounds.     

Kristallstrukturuntersuchungen an Verbindungen des Typs A3(M,Nb)8O21 (A  Tl,Ba; M  Fe,Ni)

Crystal Structure Investigations of Compounds with the A₃(M, Nb)₈O₂₁-Type (A ? Tl, Ba; M ? Fe, Ni) Tl₃Fe_0,5Nb_7,5O₂₁ (A), a hitherto unknown phase of the A₃(M, Nb)₈O₂₁-type, and Ba₃Fe₂Nb₆O₂₁ (B), Ba₃Ni_1.33Nb_6,66O₂₁ (C) were prepared and investigated by single crystal X-ray technique. ((A): a = 9.145(1), c = 11.942(1) Å; (B): a = 9.118(2), c = 11.870(1) Å; (C) a = 9.173(3), c = 11.923(1) Å, space group D? P6₃/mcm, Z = 2). There is a statistic occupation of the M-positions by Nb⁵⁺ and Fe³⁺ or Nb⁵⁺ and Ni²⁺, respectively. An other compound Ba₃Fe₂Ta₆O₂₁ is partially ordered in respect to Ta⁵⁺ and Fe³⁺. Calculations of the Coulomb-part of lattice energy are discussed.     

LaCl(BO2)2 und Er2Cl2[B2O5]: Zwei Chlorid‐Oxoborate dreiwertiger Lanthanide

LaCl(BO₂)₂ and Er₂Cl₂[B₂O₅]: Two Chloride Oxoborates of Trivalent Lanthanides Er₂Cl₂[B₂O₅] is obtained as single crystals by the reaction of ErCl₃, Er₂O₃ and B₂O₃ with an excess of ErCl₃ as flux in evacuated silica tubes after two weeks at 850 °C. The compound crystallizes as long, pale pink needles and appears to be air‐ and water‐resistant. Single‐crystalline LaCl(BO₂)₂ emerges from the reaction of La₂O₃, LaCl₃, and B₂O₃ with an excess of B₂O₃ as flux in evacuated silica tubes after four weeks at 900 °C. LaCl(BO₂)₂ crystallizes as thin, colourless, air‐ and water‐resistant needles which tend to severe twinning due to their fibrous habit. The crystal structure of Er₂Cl₂[B₂O₅] (orthorhombic, Pbam; a = 1489.65(9), b = 1004.80(6), c = 524.86(3) pm; Z = 4) contains two crystallographically different erbium cations. (Er1)³⁺ resides in pentagonal‐bipyramidal coordination of seven anions while (Er2)³⁺ is surrounded by only six anions with the shape of an octahedron. The planar oxodiborate units [B₂O₅]^4— consisting of two vertex‐shared [BO₃]^3— triangles are isolated according to {([BOO]₂)^4—}. LaCl(BO₂)₂ crystallizes isostructurally with PrCl(BO₂)₂ in the triclinic space group P1¯ (a = 423.52(4), b = 662.16(7), c = 819.33(8) pm; α = 82.081(8), β = 89.238(9), γ = 72.109(7)°; Z = 2). The characteristic unit consists of endless chains built up by corner‐linked [BO₃]^3— triangles. These quasi‐planar zigzag chains of the composition {[(B1)OO(B2)OO]^2—} (≡ {[BO₂]^—} run parallel [100]. The La³⁺ cations exhibit coordination numbers of ten and are coordinated by three Cl^— and seven O^2— anions.     

Metal complexes with macrocyclic ligands. Part XX. Influence of coordinated ligands onto the complexation rate of Ni2+ with 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane

The kinetics of the reaction between 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (Cy) and Ni²⁺ in the presence of series of ligands L = fluoride, acetate, glycolate, oxalate, malonate, succinate, methanetriacetate, 1,3,5-cyclohexanetriacetate, tricarballylate, picolinate, glycinate, iminodiacetate, nitrilotriacetate. N,N′ -ethylenediiminodiacetate, ammonia, pyridine, ethylenediamine, 1,3-propanediamine and diethylenetriamine were studied by pH-static and spectrophotometric methods at 25° and I = 0.5. By analysis of the log k/log [L] and/or log k/pH profiles the resolved bimolecular rate constants K (Table 3) were determined using a non-linear least-square fitting procedure. Practically for all systems the rate constant K, describing the reaction between the 1:1 Ni²⁺ complex and the monoprotonated form of the macrocycle, was obtained. In some cases, however, also K and K were found. Since the experimental conditions were choosen so that NiL was mainly formed, the reactivity of NiL₂ was generally not measurable. The effect of the number of coordinated donor groups in NiL and of the charge of NiL on K is discussed. Both effects seem to indicate that for the reaction between NiL and CyH⁺ first bond formation is not the rate-determining step.     

Ab initio study of the reaction of CHO+ with H2O and NH3

An MP4(full,SDTQ)/6-311++G(d,p)//MP2(full)/6-311++G(d,p) ab initio study was performed of the reactions of formyl and isoformyl cations with H₂O and NH₃, which play an important role in flame and interstellar chemistries. Two different confluent channels were located leading to CO+H₃O⁺/NH. The first one corresponds to the approach of the neutral molecule to the carbon atom of the cations. The second one leads to the direct proton transfer from the cations to the neutrals. At 900 K the separate products CO+H₃O⁺/NH are the most stable species along the Gibbs energy profiles for the processes. For the reaction with H₂O the reaction channel leading to HC(OH) (protonated formic acid) is disfavored with respect to the two CO+H₃O⁺ channels in agreement with the experimental evidence that H₃O⁺ is the major ion observed in hydrocarbon flames. According to our calculations, NH+H₂O are considerably more stable in Gibbs energy than NH₃+H₃O⁺;NH will predominate in the reaction zone when ammonia is added to CH₄+Ar diffusion flame, as experimentally observed. At 100 K the most stable structures are the intermediate complexes CO…HOH/HNH. Particularly the CO…HOH complex has a lifetime large enough to be detected and, therefore, could play a certain role in interstellar chemistry. ©1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Das erste Alkali-Erdalkalimetall-Oxo/Peroxo-Aurat(III): NaBa4AuO4(O2)2

On the first Alkaline-Alkaline-Earth-Oxo/Peroxo-Aurate(III): NaBa₄AuO₄(O₂)₂ The hitherto unknown compound NaBa₄AuO₄(O₂)₂ was prepared by oxidizing of barium gold alloy with Na₂O₂ in closed Ag-bombs. X-ray single crystal investigation led to tetragonal symmetry space group DI4/mmm, a = 5.939; c = 15.393 Å, Z = 2. NaBa₄AuO₄(O₂)₂ shows a distorted square antiprismatic surrounding of Ba²⁺ by four peroxo groups on one side and four O^2? on the opposite. Au³⁺ shows the usual square planar polygons of AuO₄. Na⁺ is coordinated by four O^2? ions in the base of an octahedron and two peroxo groups in the apical positions.     

Über geordnete Perowskite mit Kationenfehlstellen. X. Verbindungen vom Typ ABB□1/4MVIO6 ≙ ABIIB□MO24 mit AII,BII = Ba,Sr, Ca und MVI = U,W

On Ordered Perovskites with Cationic Vacancies. X. Compounds of Type A B B □_1/4M^VIO₆ ? A B^IIB □M O₂₄ with A^II, B^II = Ba, Sr, Ca and M^VI = U, W Perovskites of type Ba₈B^IIB₂^III□UO₂₄ show polymorphic phase transformations of order disorder type. An 1:1 ordered orthorhombic HT form is transformed into a higher ordered LT modification with a fourfold cell content (four formula units Ba₈B^IIB□U₄O₂₄), compared to cubic 1:1 ordered perovskites A₂BMO₆. In the series Ba₈BaB□W₄O₂₄ and Sr₈SrB□W₄O₂₄ different ordering phenomena are observed. In comparison with 1:1 ordered cubic perovskites A₂BMO₆, the cell contains eight formula units AB^IIB□W₄O₂₄. The higher ordered cells with U^VI and W^VI are face centered, which has its origin in an ordering of cationic vacancies.     

Untersuchungen an elektronenleitenden Oxidsystemen. XXI. Stabile spinelle ZnzNiMn2−zO4 und Vergleich mit Spinellen MgzNiMn2−zO4

Investigations on Electronically Conducting Oxide Systems. XXI [1] Stable Spinels Zn_zNiMn_2?zO₄ and Comparison with Spinels Mg_zNiMn_2?zO₄ Stable spinels are obtained in the result of substitution of Zn^II for manganese in the series Zn Ni^IIMnMnO₄ (O ? z ≤1). Different from spinels Mg Ni^IIMnMnO₄ (O ? z ?1)they don't be submitted to decomposition in air during slow cooling at medium temperatures. ZnNiMnO₄ (z=1) could not be prepared in a mono-phase state which is indicated by the composition of ZnNiMnO_3.96 deduced from analysis by oxidimetric titration. The comparably small variation of the specific electrical conductivity and of the activation energy observed in the range O ? z ? 2/3 for Zn_zNiMn_2?z is discussed in relation to larger alterations in the series Mg_zNiMn_2?zO₄. Structural interpretation is proposed based on the comparison of the molar volume of spinels M Mn₂O₄ (M: Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Mg).     

Electron transfer reactivity of O2+O system in low-spin coupling: Ab Initio study at electron correlation level

The electron transfer reactivity of the O₂+O system in low-spin coupling is studied at the second-order unrestricted Møller–Plesset (full)/6-311+G* basis set level by using different transition state structures. The properties and stabilities of the encounter complexes are compared for the five selected coupling structures: two T type, collinear, parallel, and crossing. The activation barriers and the coupling matrix elements are also calculated. The results indicate that the structures of the encounter complexes directly affect the electron transfer mechanism and rate. These encounter complexes are structurally unstable, the contact distances between the acceptor O₂ and the donor O are generally large, the interaction is weak, and the structures are floppy. The electronic transmission factor for the reacting system, O₂+O, is less than unity; thus, the electron transfer reaction is nonadiabatic in nature. Analysis of the dependence of relevant kinetic parameters on various influencing factors has shown that the effect of the solvent medium on the coupling matrix element is small but that on the electron transfer rate is very large. Among the five selected transition state structures, the electron transfer is more likely to take place via T₁-type and P-type structures. In the low-spin coupling the favorable electronic states for two reacting species are ¹∑(O₂) and X²Π_g(O) instead of X³∑(O₂) and X²π_g(O), which are favorable for the high-spin (quartet state) coupling mechanism. ©1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Zur Atomverteilung in Ba2SrIn2O6 mit einem Beitrag zur Existenz des Calciumferrat(III)-Typs bei Oxoindaten

On the Atomic Distribution in Ba₂SrIn₂O₆ with a Contribution to the Existence of the Calciumferrite-Type of Oxoindates (I) Ba₂SrIn₂O₆ and (II) Sr_0.93Ba_0.07In₂O₄ were prepared and investigated by single crystal X-ray technique. I crystallizes with tetragonal symmetry, space group D – I4/mmm, a = 4.168; c = 21.290 Å; Z = 2; II belongs to the orthorhombic space group D – Pnma, a = 9.858; b = 3.273; c = 11.520 Å; Z = 4. I shows in respect to the formerly investigated compound BaSr₂In₂O₆ an unexpected statistically distribution of Ba²⁺ and Sr²⁺ with the La₂SrCu₂O₆ type. II marks the range of existence of the calciumferrite type within the alkaline earth oxoindates in direction of large radii of M²⁺ ions.     

Preparation and Properties of Bis[μ-S-(2-tiolatoethyl)-diphenylphosphine][(2-thiolatoethyl)diphenyl-phosphine]dinickel(+1) Ion,a Novel Unsymmetrical Thiolate-bridged complex

The title cation ( = Ni₂L) is formed in a variety of reactions (Schemes 1 and 2) in systems containing Ni²⁺ and (2-thiolatoethyl)-diphenylphosphine (= L^?) in the absence of coordinating anions at Ni²⁺/L^? ratios > 0.5 in apolar or moderately polar media. Solid [Ni₂L₃]CIO₄ and [Ni₂L₃]BPh₄ have been isolated. Job's plots confirm the Ni₂L- stoichiometry in solution. ³¹P-NMR data are consistent with ≥ 97% Ni₂L (vs. ? 3% of hypothetical Ni₃L) at equilibrium and support the suggested configuration (Fig. 2). The equilibrium between NiL₂ + NiL₂Br₂ and Ni₂L + Br^? varies with the solvent composition in CH₂₃Cl₂/EtOH mixtures. The rate of formation of Ni₂L₂Br₂ from Ni₂L and bromide (in high excess) in CH₂Cl₂ is first-order in [Ni₂L]_tot but depends on the ratio [Bu₄NBr]_tot/[Ni₂L₃ · ClO₄]tot, even at a high excess of bromide. This is interpreted by efficient competition in ion-aggregate formation between the small perchlorate concentration introduced as the counterion of Ni₂L, and the large excess of bromide.

Untersuchungen im System PO?WO?H2O?H3O+

Investigations in the System PO ? WO ? H₂O? H₃O⁺ By means of the molar ratio and Job'S method of continuous variations modified by us the composition of heteropolytungstates was determined using for the first time UV absorption spectroscopic techniques. For the case of the 1P:12W complex it is shown: In Na₂HPO₄ solutions acidified with HCl only the 12-tungstophosphate anion [PW₁₂O₄₀]^3? is formed. The complex formation in dependence on the acid degree Z is complete at Z = 23 H₃O⁺/12 WO = 1.92. For Z = 2.0 the consumption of H₃O⁺ has been calculated to be 5 moles H₃O⁺/1 mole HPO. Using Babko'S dilution method the stability constant of [PW₁₂O₄₀]^3? was determined to be β_k = 2.4 · 10¹² l² · mole^?2.
