Contributions to the Chemistry of Phosphorus Compounds with Adamantane-like Structure. XI. Preparation and Properties of Phosphorus Oxide Sulfides of the General Formula P₄S_10?n S_n (n = 2?9) The reaction of P₄O₁₀ with P₄S₁₀ yields a mixture of phosphorus oxide sulfides of the general formula P₄O_10?nS_n. Depending on the molar ratio P₄O₁₀: P₄S₁₀ in the starting product different amounts of the individual phosphorus oxide sulfides occuring in this reorganization product are formed. Besides the well-known P₄O₆S₄ the compounds P₄O₇S₃, P₄O₅S₅, P₄O₄S₆, P₄O₃S₇, P₄O₂S₈, and P₄OS₉ occuring for the first time were obtained by fractional distillation or crystallization.

Acetylenic derivatives of metal carbonyls of the triad Fe,Ru, Os—XI Mass spectra of some binuclear complexes

The mass spectra of the following acetylenic derivatives of iron, ruthenium and osmium carbonyls are reported: the iron compounds Fe₂(CO)₆[C₂(C₆H₅)s₂]₂, Fe₂(CO)₆[C₂(CH₃)₂]₂ and Fe₂(CO)₆[C₂(C₂H₅)₂]₂, the ruthenium compounds Ru₂(CO)₆[C₂(C₆H₅)₂]₂, and Ru₂(CO)₆[C₂(CH₃)₂]₂ and the osmium compounds Os₂(CO)₆[C₂(C₆H₅)₂]₂, Os₂(CO)₆[C₂HC₆H₅]₂ and Os₂(CO)₆[C₂(CH₃)₂]₂. Iron compounds exhibit breakdown schemes where binuclear, mononuclear and hydrocarbon ions are present. On the other hand, ruthenium and osmium compounds fragment in a similar way and give rise to singly and doubly charged binuclear ions. Phenylic derivatives of ruthenium and osmium also give weak triply charged ions. The results are discussed in terms of relative strengths of the metal-metal and metal-carbon bonds.

The synthesis and structure of triphenylsiloxycyclotriphosphazenes

The triphenylsiloxy-substituted cyclotriphosphazenes, N₃P₃Cl₅OSiPh₃, gem-N₃P₃Cl₄(OSiPh₃)₂, N₃P₃(OSiPh₃)₆, and N₃P₃(OPh)₅OSiPh₃, have been prepared. The synthesis of gem-N₃P₃Cl₄(OSiPh₃)₂ involves the reaction of (NPCl₂)₃ with Ph₃SiONa to form the intermediates gem-N₃P₃Cl₄(OSiPh₃)₂(ONa) and gem-N₃P₃Cl₄(ONa)₂, which yield gem-N₃P₃Cl₄(OSiPh₃)₂ when treated with Ph₃SiCl. The compounds N₃P₃Cl₅OSiPh₃ and N₃P₃(OSiPh₃)₀ are formed by the condensation reactions of N₃P₃Cl₅OBuⁿ and N₃P₃(OBuⁿ)₆, respectively, with Ph₃SiCl. The compound N₃P₃(OPh)₅OSiPh₃ is synthesized by the reaction between N₃P₃(OPh)₅Cl and Et₃SiONa to first give the intermediate N₃P₃(OPh)₅ONa, which yields N₃P₃(OPh)₅OSiPh₃ when reacted with Ph₃SiCl. The structural characterization and properties of these compounds are discussed. The crystal and molecular structure of gem-N₃P₃Cl₄(OSiPh₃)₂ has been investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The crystals are monoclinic with the space group P2₁/c with a = 16.850(8), b = 12.829(4), c = 18.505(15) Å, and β = 101.00(6)° with V = 3927 ų and Z = 4. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Reactivity in the solid state between CoWO4 and RE2WO6 where RE = Sm, Eu, Gd

Reactivity in the solid state between CoWO₄ and some rare-earth metal tungstates RE₂WO₆ (RE = Sm, Eu, Gd) was investigated by the XRD method. Two families of new isostructural cobalt and rare-earth metal tungstates, Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ and CoRE₄W₃O₁₆, were synthesized. The Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ phases are formed by heating in air the CoWO₄ and RE₂WO₆ compounds mixed at the molar ratio 2:1, while the CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ phases are synthesized at the molar ratio of CoWO₄/RE₂WO₆ equals to 1:2. The Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ phases as well as the CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ compounds crystallize in the orthorhombic system. The Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ and CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ compound melt above 1150 °C. A melting manner of the Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ and CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ compounds was determined in an inert atmosphere. The formation of CoWO_4−x phase was observed during heating in an inert atmosphere.     

Zur Kenntnis der Dialkalimetalldichalkogenide β-Na2S2, K2S2, α-Rb2S2, β-Rb2S2, K2Se2, Rb2Se2, α-K2Te2, β-K2Te2 und Rb2Te2

On Dialkali Metal Dichalcogenides β-Na₂S₂, K₂S₂, α-Rb₂S₂, β-Rb₂S₂, K₂Se₂, Rb₂Se₂, α-K₂Te₂, β-K₂Te₂ and Rb₂Te₂ The first presentation of pure samples of α- and β-Rb₂S₂, α- and β-K₂Te₂, and Rb₂Te₂ is described. Using single crystals of K₂S₂ and K₂Se₂, received by ammonothermal synthesis, the structure of the Na₂O₂ type and by using single crystals of β-Na₂S₂ and β-K₂Te₂ the Li₂O₂ type structure will be refined. By combined investigations with temperature-dependent Guinier-, neutron diffraction-, thermal analysis, and Raman-spectroscopy the nature of the monotropic phase transition from the Na₂O₂ type to the Li₂O₂ type will be explained by means of the examples α-/β-Na₂S₂ and α-/β-K₂Te₂. A further case of dimorphic condition as well as the monotropic phase transition of α- and β-Rb₂S₂ is presented. The existing areas of the structure fields of the dialkali metal dichalcogenides are limited by the model of the polar covalence.     

Kryometrische Untersuchungen. IV. Lösungen von oxidischen Mo6+- und Cr6+-Verbindungen in geschmolzenem K2Cr2O7 und KNO3

The depression of freezing point of molten K₂Cr₂O₇ and KNO₃ as solvents was measured after addition of small concentrations of the following compounds: to K₂Cr₂O₇: MoO₃, CrO₃, (NH₄)₂CrO₄, K₂MoO₄, Na₂MoO₄, Li₂MoO₄, and Na₂Mo₂O₇, respectively; to KNO₃: CrO₃, (NH₄)₂Cr₂O₇ K₂Cr₂O₇, K₂CrO₄ and MoO₃, (NH₄)₆(Mo₇O₂₄) · 4 H₂O, K₂Mo₂O₇, K₂MoO₄, Na₂MoO₄ and Li₂MoO₄, respectively.

Equilibrium phase behavior of aqueous two-phase systems containing 17R4/L64 and citrates

The cloud points (CPs) of the copolymers 17R4 and L64 were first measured, and then the effects of salts ((NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇, K₃C₆H₅O₇) on 17R4 and L64 were researched. After finishing the work described above, the temperature (278.15, 283.15, and 288.15) K of aqueous two-phase systems was determined, which consist of 17R4-(NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇, 17R4-K₃C₆H₅O₇, L64-(NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇, and L64-K₃C₆H₅O₇. Finally, the liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) data of binodal curve and the tie line for 17R4-(NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇ aqueous two- phase systems (ATPSs) 17R4-K₃C₆H₅O₇ ATPSs, L64-(NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇ ATPSs, and L64-K₃C₆H₅O₇ ATPSs were obtained. Nonlinear fitting of the empirical equation was used for making the diagram. The results showed that the change in the size of the two-phase areas increases with the increase of temperature. The capacity of the salts to induce phase segregation follows the Hofmeister series, that is, K₃C₆H₅O₇?>?(NH₄)₃C₆H₅O₇. In addition, the findings also showed that the phase separation ability of 17R4 is better than that of L64.     

Phase ratios in the K2O-V2O4-SO3 system at high sulfur trioxide concentrations

Phase ratios in the three-component oxide system K₂O-V₂O₄-SO₃ in the region of the sulfur trioxide concentrations corresponding to its concentrations in the active component of vanadium catalysts for SO₂ to SO₃ conversion have been studied using powder X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, microscopy, and chemical analysis. Four individual compounds (K₂VO(SO₄)₂, K₂(VO)₂(SO₄)₃, K₂VO(SO₄)₂S₂O₇, and K₂(VO)₂(SO₄)₂S₂O₇) and K₂(VO)₂(SO₄)₂S₂O₇ and VOSO₄-base solid solutions of composition K₂(VO)_2+x (SO₄)_2+x S₂O₇ (0 ≤ x ≤ 1.5) were found in the system. K₂VO(SO₄)S₂O₇ and K₂(VO)₂(SO₄)₂S₂O₇ lose their sulfur trioxide when heated above 350°C under an inert atmosphere, and convert to K₂VO(SO₄)₂ and K₂(VO)₂(SO₄)₃, respectively. This implies that K₂VO(SO₄)₂S₂O₇ and K₂(VO)₂(SO₄)₂S₂O₇, as well as K₂(VO)_2+x (SO₄)_2+x S₂O₇ solid solution, cannot exist in the active component of real industrial catalysts.     

Alternativ-Liganden. III. Koordinatives verhalten von chelatliganden des typs me2XSi(Me2)CH2XMe2 (X  N und/oder P: Me  CH3)

Co-ordinative Properties of Chelating Ligands of the Type Me₂XSi(Me₂)CH₂XMe₂ (X ? N and/or P; Me ? CH₃) The reactions of the ligands L ? Me₂XSi(Me₂)CH₂XMe₂ (X ? N and/or P; Me ? CH₃) with M(CO)₆ and M(CO)₄norbor (norbor ? norbornadiene) (M ? Cr, Mo), respectively, yield derivatives of the types M(CO)₅L, M(CO)₄L, and M(CO)₄L₂, respectively. M(CO)₅L compounds are formed from the hexacarbonyls with Me₂NSiMe₂CH₂PMe₂, whereas the ligand Me₂NSiMe₂CH₂NMe₂ does not afford analogous derivatives under the same conditions. Even on substitution of the diene-ligand in M(CO)₄norbor by Me₂NSiMe₂CH₂PMe₂ the chelate complexes M(CO)₄NMe₂SiMe₂CH₂PMe₂ are not obtained, but the cis-disubstituted products M(CO)₄[PMe₂CH₂SiMe₂NMe₂]₂ with phosphorus acting as donor atom are produced. The ligands Me₂PSiMe₂CH₂XMe₂(X ? N, P) give the chelate complexes M(CO)₄PMe₂SiMe₂CH₂XMe₂ in high yields. The new compounds were identified by analytical and spectroscopic (PMR, IR, mass spectra) methods.

For each pair of constituents, over 20 000 new compounds, each with a specific nanoarchitecture, are possible with the number of structural units equal to 10 or less. This provides opportunities to systematically correlate structure with properties and hence optimize performance.

Piperazine Functionalization of C70 for Incorporation into Supramolecular Assemblies

The photochemical reaction of piperazine with C₇₀ produces a mono‐adduct (N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀) in high yield (67 %) along with three bis‐adducts. These piperazine adducts can combine with various Lewis acids to form crystalline supramolecular aggregates suitable for X‐ray diffraction. The structure of the mono‐adduct was determined from examination of the adduct I₂N(CH₂CH₂)₂NI₂C₇₀ that was formed by reaction of N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀ with I₂. Crystals of polymeric {Rh₂(O₂CCF₃)₄N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀}_n?nC₆H₆ that formed from reaction of the mono‐adduct with Rh₂(O₂CCF₃)₄ contain a sinusoidal strand of alternating molecules of N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀ and Rh₂(O₂CCF₃)₄ connected through Rh?N bonds. Silver nitrate reacts with N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀ to form black crystals of {(Ag(NO₃))₄(N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀)₄}_n?7nCH₂Cl₂ that contain parallel, nearly linear chains of alternating (N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀ molecules and silver ions. Four of these {Ag(NO₃)N(CH₂CH₂)₂NC₇₀}_n chains adopt a structure that resembles a columnar micelle with the ionic silver nitrate portion in the center and the nearly non‐polar C₇₀ cages encircling that core. Of the three bis‐adducts, one was definitively identified through crystallization in the presence of I₂ as ¹²{N(CH₂CH₂)₂N}₂C₇₀ with addends on opposite poles of the C₇₀ cage and a structure with C_2v symmetry. In ¹²{I₂N(CH₂CH₂)₂N}₂C₇₀, individual ¹²{I₂N(CH₂CH₂)₂N}₂C₇₀ units are further connected by secondary I2???N2 interactions to form chains that occur in layers within the crystal. Halogen bond formation between a Lewis base such as a tertiary amine and I₂ is suggested as a method to produce ordered crystals with complex supramolecular structures from substances that are otherwise difficult to crystallize.
