Kristallstrukturverfeinerungen an Natriumtrifluorometallaten NaMF3 (M  Mg,Co, Ni,Zn): Oktaederkippung und Toleranzfaktor orthorhombischer Fluorperowskite

Crystal Structure Refinements of Sodium Trifluorometallates NaMF₃ (M ? Mg, Co, Ni, Zn): Tilting of Octahedra and Tolerance Factor of Orthorhombic Fluoroperovskites Based on newly measured X-ray single crystal data the crystal structures of the orthorhombic fluoroperovskites NaMF₃ (M ? Mg, Co, Ni, Zn) were refined in space group Pbnm (GdFeO₃ type, Z = 4). The octahedra are but slightly distorted; the average distances (and bridge angles M? F? M) are: Mg? F = 197.8 pm (150.9°), Co? F = 203.8 pm (146.1°), Ni? F = 200.3 pm (148.0°) and Zn? F = 202.3 pm (147.4°). With respect to the axes of the pseudocell (Z = 1) the octahedra are rotated by tilt angles which vary, including NaMnF₃ and NaFeF₃, between 14.6 and 18.8°. The tilting becomes the more pronounced, the smaller the tolerance factor of the compound, so as to yield uniformly average values of Na? F = 232 pm for the four shortest distances within the [NaF₈] coordination (distorted tetrahedron and bicapped trigonal prism, respectively). Measurements of magnetic powder susceptibilities show that tilting of octahedra is no sufficient cause to produce spin canting resulting in ferromagnetism: This property is confirmed only for NaNiF₃ (T_N = 150 K), whereas NaCoF₃ exhibits a sharp minimum in its χ^?l-T curve (T_N = 75 K) and remains uncanted antiferromagnetic then down to 4.2 K.     

Property–Performance Control of Multidimensional,Hierarchical, Single‐Crystalline ZnO Nanoarchitectures

Diverse morphologies of multidimensional hierarchical single‐crystalline ZnO nanoarchitectures including nanoflowers, nanobelts, and nanowires are obtained by use of a simple thermal evaporation and vapour‐phase transport deposition technique by placing Au‐coated silicon substrates in different positions inside a furnace at process temperatures as low as 550 °C. The nucleation and growth of ZnO nanostructures are governed by the vapour–solid mechanism, as opposed to the commonly reported vapour–liquid–solid mechanism, when gold is used in the process. The morphological, structural, compositional and optical properties of the synthesized ZnO nanostructures can be effectively tailored by means of the experimental parameters, and these properties are closely related to the local growth temperature and gas‐phase supersaturation at the sample position. In particular, room‐temperature photoluminescence measurements reveal an intense near‐band‐edge ultraviolet emission at about 386 nm for nanobelts and nanoflowers, which suggests that these nanostructures are of sufficient quality for applications in, for example, optoelectronic devices.     

Syntheses of MSn(OH)6 by coprecipitation and of MSnO3 by thermal decomposition (M = Mg,Co, Zn,Mn, Cd,Ca, Sr,Ba)

MSn(OH)₆ (M = Mg, Co, Zn, Mn, Cd, Ca, Sr, and Ba) and their solid solutions were synthesized by coprecipitation from aqueous solutions of Na₂Sn(OH)₆ complex and MCl₂. MSnO₃ and their solid solutions were prepared by thermal decomposition of these MSn(OH)₆ precipitates. Coprecipitation procedures were established, and structures of MSn(OH)₆ and MSnO₃ were discussed in relation to mean radius of M²⁺ ions. The morphology of particles of these hydroxides and oxides were also observed. In order to obtain a single phase precipitate MSn(OH)₆, the concentration of both solutions of Na₂Sn(OH)₆ and MCl₂ had to be as low as 0.1 mol/l. The pH-value was kept above 11, and so acidic solution of MCl₂ was added slowly to basic solution of Na₂Sn(OH)₆. The structure of MSn(OH)₆ depended strongly of mean radius of M²⁺ ions, being cubic with NaCl-type arrangement of M²⁺ and Sn⁴⁺ cations below 1.26 Å and hexagonal above 1.26 Å. Crystalline MSnO₃ was obtained by the decomposition of MSn(OH)₆ precipitates above 500–600°C. The structure of MSnO₃ was also related with mean radius of M²⁺ ions closely, ilmenite-type below 1.09 Å and pervoskite-type above 1.14 Å. In perovskite-type structure, a gradual decrease in lattice distortion and rapid increase in crystal volume were observed with the increase in radius of M²⁺ ions. An interesting morphology change was observed from CaSn(OH)₆ precipitates to CaSnO₃, the particles with either cubic or flower-like appearance in hydroxide becoming porous in oxide without appreciable change in particle appearance.     

Inorganic-organic framework structures; M(II) ethylenediphosphonates (M = Co, Ni, Mn) and a Mn(II) ethylenediphosphonato-phenanthroline

The reaction of nickel, cobalt, and manganese with 1,2-ethylenediphosphonic acid or 1,2-ethylenediphosphonic acid and 1,10-phenanthroline under hydrothermal conditions resulted in the pillared layered structures Co2(H2O)2(O3PC2H4PO3) (I) and Ni2(H2O)2(O3PC2H4PO3) (II), which are isostructural to a zinc phase that has previously been characterized by X-ray powder methods. In addition, a 1D chain structure, Mn(HO3P(CH2)2PO3H)(H2O)2(C12H8N2) (III), and a pillared layered structure, Mn(HO3P(CH2)2PO3H) (IV), were obtained. The structures of these phases were solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The crystallographic data are as follows: compound I P21/n (No. 14), a = 5.6500(11) A, b = 4.7800(10) A, c = 15.330(3) A, beta = 98.50(3) degrees, V = 409.47(14) A3, Z = 2; compound II P21/n (No. 14), a = 5.5807(11) A, b = 4.7205(9) A, c = 15.250(3) A, beta = 98.55(3) degrees, V = 397.28(13) A3, Z = 2; compound III C2/c (No. 15), a = 12.109(2) A, b = 15.328(3) A, c = 9.848(2) A, beta = 108.88(3) degrees, V = 1729.5(6) A3, Z = 4; compound IV P (No. 2), a = 5.498(5) A, b = 7.715(6) A, c = 8.093(7) A, alpha = 82.986(12) degrees, beta = 75.565(12) degrees, gamma = 80.582(12)degrees, V = 326.7(5) A3, Z = 2. Magnetic measurements show antiferromagnetic behavior below TN = 7 K for I and 13 K for II.     

Phase Transitions in Crystalline [M(H2O)6](ClO4)2 (M=Mg,Mn, Fe,Co, Ni,Cu, Zn,Cd and Hg)

The results of DSC measurements in the temperature range 140–370 K on nine crystalline compounds of the type [M(H₂O)₆](ClO₄)₂, where M=Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Hg, are discussed. Anomalies detected in the DSC curves are related to the existence of solid-solid phase transitions and/or to the melting points of these compounds. In consequence of two different hypothetical structural modifications of [Fe(H₂O)₆](ClO₄)₂, two DSC curves are obtained. For the compounds with M=Fe, Cd and Hg, new phase transitions have been discovered. The transition temperatures of the other phase transitions are in good agreement with literature data obtained by adiabatic calorimetry. For the compounds with M=Mg, Ni and Cd, DTA measurements were also carried out and the melting points of theses compounds were established. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Zur Polymorphie und Pseudosymmetrie der Hydrate MSeO3 · H2O (M = Mn,Co, Ni,Zn, Cd)

Polymorphic and Pseudosymmetrical Hydrates MSeO₃ · H₂O (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, Cd) By crystallization from aqueous solutions of MSeO₃ and M(HSeO₃)₂, the selenites MSeO₃ · H₂O (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, Cd) were obtained and characterized by means of X-ray diffraction and IR-spectroscopy. The crystal structure of ZnSeO₃ · H₂O was determined. The IR spectra indicate that the hydrates are isotypic and contain H₂O molecules of symmetry mm2. However, the X-ray data show different structure types with H₂O molecules of site symmetry m or 1. CdSeO₃ · H₂O and MnSeO₃ · H₂O are isotypic (o.rh., MnSeO₃ · D₂O type). CoSeO₃ · H₂O (mon.) as well as the isotypic NiSeO₃ · H₂O and ZnSeO₃ · H₂O (mon.) form new structure types. These findings are discussed on the basis of the crystal structure of ZnSeO₃ · H₂O (P2₁/n, a = 477.9(1), b = 1319.4(5), c = 570.1(1) pm, β = 90.84(2)°, Z = 4, D_x = 3.886 g · cm^?3, R = 0.035 for 722 reflections with I > 2σ₁) and the local pseudosymmetry of its components, i.e., layers [ZnSeO₃ · H₂O] of ZnO₆ octahedra sharing four equatorial vertices, SeO₃^2? anions and H₂O molecules.     

Crystal structures of disordered A2Mn3+M5+O6 (A=Sr,Ca; M=Sb,Nb, Ru) perovskites

Polycrystalline samples of A₂MnMO₆ (A=Sr, Ca; M=Nb, Sb, Ru) were prepared by conventional solid state synthesis and their crystal structures were determined using neutron powder diffraction data. All six compounds can be classified as distorted, disordered perovskites. The Mn³⁺/M⁵⁺ distribution is disordered in all six compounds. The strontium containing compounds, Sr₂MnMO₆ (M=Nb, Sb, Ru), undergo out of phase rotations of the octahedra about the c-axis (tilt system a⁰a⁰c⁻) leading to tetragonal I4/mcm space group symmetry. The calcium containing compounds, Ca₂MnMO₆ (M=Nb, Ru, Sb), have orthorhombic Pnma space group symmetry, as a result of a GdFeO₃-type octahedral tilting distortion (tilt system a⁻b⁺a⁻). A cooperative Jahn–Teller distortion is observed in Sr₂MnSbO₆ and Sr₂MnRuO₆, but it is much smaller than the distortion observed in LnMnO₃ (Ln=lanthanide ion) perovskites. It is possible that Jahn–Teller distortions of the MnO₆ octahedra take place on a short-range length scale in the other four compounds, but there is little or no evidence for cooperative ordering of the local distortions. These findings demonstrate a link between orbital ordering, cation ordering and octahedral tilting.     

The Periodate‐Based Double Perovskites M2NaIO6 (M = Ca,Sr, and Ba)

The crystal structures of the M₂NaIO₆ series (M = Ca, Sr, Ba), prepared at 650 °C by ceramic methods, were determined from conventional laboratory X‐ray powder diffraction data. Synthesis and crystal growth were made by oxidizing I^– with O₂^(air) to I⁷⁺ followed by crystal growth in the presence of NaF as mineralizator, or by the reaction of the alkali‐metal periodate with the alkaline‐earth metal hydroxide. All three compounds are insoluble and stable in water. The barium compound crystallizes in the cubic space group Fm3m (no. 225) with lattice parameters of a = 8.3384(1) Å, whereas the strontium and calcium compounds crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c (no. 14) with a = 5.7600(1) Å, b = 5.7759(1) Å, c = 9.9742(1) Å, β = 125.362(1)° and a = 5.5376(1) Å, b = 5.7911(1) Å, c = 9.6055(1) Å, β = 124.300(1)°, respectively. The crystal structure consists of either symmetric (for Ba) or distorted (for Sr and Ca) perovskite superstructures. Ba₂NaIO₆ contains the first perfectly octahedral [IO₆]^5– unit reported. The compounds of the ortho‐periodates are stable up to 800 °C. Spectroscopic measurements as well as DFT calculations show a reasonable agreement between calculated and observed IR‐ and Raman‐active vibrations.     

Über Hexafluorotitanate (IV): M11TiF6 mit M = Zn,Cd, Mn,Co, Ni

Endohedral and Exohedral Metalloborospherenes: M@B40 (M=Ca,Sr) and M&B40 (M=Be,Mg)

The recent discovery of the all‐boron fullerenes or borospherenes, D_2d B₄₀^−/0, paves the way for borospherene chemistry. Here we report a density functional theory study on the viability of metalloborospherenes: endohedral M@B₄₀ (M=Ca, Sr) and exohedral M&B₄₀ (M=Be, Mg). Extensive global structural searches indicate that Ca@B₄₀ ( 1 , C_2v, ¹A₁) and Sr@B₄₀ ( 3 , D_2d, ¹A₁) possess almost perfect endohedral borospherene structures with a metal atom at the center, while Be&B₄₀ ( 5 , C_s, ¹A′) and Mg&B₄₀ ( 7 , C_s, ¹A′) favor exohedral borospherene geometries with a η⁷‐M atom face‐capping a heptagon on the waist. Metalloborospherenes provide indirect evidence for the robustness of the borospherene structural motif. The metalloborospherenes are characterized as charge‐transfer complexes (M²⁺B₄₀²⁻), where an alkaline earth metal atom donates two electrons to the B₄₀ cage. The high stability of endohedral Ca@B₄₀ ( 1 ) and Sr@B₄₀ ( 3 ) is due to the match in size between the host cage and the dopant. Bonding analyses indicate that all 122 valence electrons in the systems are delocalized as σ or π bonds, being distributed evenly on the cage surface, akin to the D_2d B₄₀ borospherene.     

Zur Kenntnis der Hydrate M(HSeO3)2 · 4H2O (M = Mg,Co, Ni,Zn). Röntgenstrukturanalytische,schwingungsspektroskopische und thermoanalytische Untersuchungen

On the Hydrates M(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O (M = Mg, Co, Ni, Zn) – Crystal Structures, IR, Raman, and Thermoanalytical Investigations From aqueous solutions of M(HSeO₃)₂ single crystals of Mg(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O and of the hitherto unknown compounds Co(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O, Ni(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O and Zn(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O could be obtained. The crystal structures, X-ray powder, IR, Raman and thermoanalytical (DTA, TG, Raman heating) data are presented and discussed. The crystal data of the isotypic compounds are: monoclinic, space group C2/c, Z = 4, Mg: a = 1 464.6(2), b = 755.3(1), c = 1 099.9(1) pm, β = 126.59(1)°, V = 0.9769(1) nm³, Co: a = 1 462.5(2), b = 756.5(2), c = 1 102.2(2) pm, β = 126.53(1)°, V = 0.9798(2) nm³, Ni: a = 1 452.2(2), b = 751.0(1), c = 1 091.5(1) pm, β = 126.28(1)°, V = 0.9595(1) nm³, Zn: a = 1 468.3(2), b = 755.8(1), c = 1 103.1(1) pm, β = 126.79(1)°, V = 0.9804(2) nm³. The crystal structures consist of hexagonal packed [M(HSeO₃)₂ · 2H₂O]_n chains of [MO₄(H₂O)₂] octahedra linked by Se atoms. They contain trigonal pyramidal SeO₂OH^?ions with “free” hydroxyl groups and also “free” molecules of water of crystallization. The hydroxyl groups build strong H-bonds (O? H …? O distances: 265–268 pm). The IR spectra show AB doublett bands in the OH stretching mode region of the hydroxyl groups. The water molecules of crystallization are linked to planar (H₂O)₄ tetramers by H-bonds with unusually short O? H …? O bond distances of 271–273 pm. DTA and TG measurements indicate that thermal decomposition results in the direct formation of the respective diselenite MSe₂O₅. Raman heating measurements show under quasi static conditions the intermediate formation of the anhydrous hydrogen selenites.     

Synthesis of Single‐Crystal Tetra(4‐pyridyl)porphyrin Rectangular Nanotubes in the Vapor Phase

Stacking up : One‐dimensional single‐crystalline rectangular nanotubes (RNTs) of 5,10,15,20‐tetra(4‐pyridyl)porphyrin (H₂TPyP, see picture) are synthesized by a vaporization–condensation–recrystallization process. The single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction and selected‐area electron diffraction data reveal that the H₂TPyP RNTs form by self‐stacking of H₂TPyP units through hydrogen‐bonding, H–π, and π–π intermolecular interactions.

     

The first‐row transition‐metal series of tris(ethylenediamine) diacetate complexes [M(en)3](OAc)2 (M is Mn,Fe, Co,Ni, Cu,and Zn)

The crystal structures of the first‐row transition‐metal series of tris(ethylenediamine‐κ²N ,N ′)metal(II) diacetate, [M (C₂H₈N₂)₃](CH₃CO₂)₂, with M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn, are reported. The complexes are all isostructural, crystallizing in a centrosymmetric triclinic cell and possessing an asymmetric unit composed of one [M (en)₃]²⁺ cation and two symmetrically independent acetate anions. In the unit cell, the two complex cations are inversion‐generated enantiomers, possessing the energetically favoured Δ(λλλ) and Λ(δδδ) configurations. The complex cations and acetate anions combine through a series of N—H…O hydrogen bonds to generate a three‐dimensional network in the crystals. The other notable feature of the series is a significant Jahn–Teller distortion for the d ⁹ Cu²⁺ complex.

Metalloborospherenes provide indirect evidence for the robustness of the borospherene structural motif. The metalloborospherenes are characterized as charge‐transfer complexes (M²⁺B₄₀^2?), where an alkaline earth metal atom donates two electrons to the B₄₀ cage.
