The NH₄⁺ ions occupy a twofold crystallographic axis, whereas the metal atoms of the [MCl₆]^— ions occupy a centre of inversion. There exist weak interionic hydrogen bridges. [K(18‐crown‐6)(CH₂Cl₂)]₂[WCl₆]·6CH₂Cl₂ crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group R3¯/m with Z = 3. The compound forms centrosymmetric ion triples, in which the potassium ions are coordinated with a WCl₃ face each. In trans‐position to it the chlorine atom of a CH₂Cl₂ molecule is coordinated so that, together with the oxygen atoms of the crown ether, coordination number 10 is achieved. (PPh₄)₂[WCl₆]·4CH₃CN crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with Z = 4. This compound, too, forms centrosymmetric ion triples, in which in addition the acetonitrile molecules are connected with the [WCl₆]^2— ion via weak C—H···Cl contacts.

(PPh4)2[WO2Cl3]2 · 2 CH2Cl2: Synthese,Schwingungsspektrum und Kristallstruktur

(PPh₄)₂[WO₂Cl₃]₂ · 2 CH₂Cl₂. Synthesis, Vibrational Spectrum, and Crystal Structure Depending on the stoichiometry and the solvent, dichloromethane or 1.2-dichloroethane, WO₂Cl₂ reacts with tetraphenylphosphonium chloride affording (PPh₄)₂[WO₂Cl₄] or (PPh₄)₂[WO₂Cl₃]₂, respectively. Both compounds are easily soluble in dichloromethane, from which they can be crystallized under incorporation of two molecules CH₂Cl₂ per formula unit. The crystalline compounds have been characterized by their IR and Raman spectra. According to the X-ray crystal structure analysis, (PPh₄)₂[WO₂Cl₃]₂ · 2 CH₂Cl₂ crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with one formula unit per unit cell (986 independent observed reflexions, R = 0.061). Lattice constants: a = 1100.2, b = 1116.9, c = 1238.4 pm, = 69.40, = 80.46 and = 85.62°. The crystals consist of PPh₄^⊕ ions, centrosymmetric [WO₂Cl₃]₂^2? anions and CH₂Cl₂ molecules. In the anions, the tungsten atoms are linked via two oxo bridges with WO distances of 184 and 252 pm. The distorted octahedral coordination around each tungsten atom is completed by three terminal chloro and one terminal oxo ligand (WO bond length 166 pm), the latter being in trans position to the longer WO bridging bond. (PPh₄)₂[WO₂Cl₄] · 2 CH₂Cl₂ also forms triclinic crystals that are isotypic with (PPh₄)₂[WOCl₅] · 2 CH₂Cl₂ and in which the anions must have orientational disorder.

The reaction of PPh₄[SnCl₃] with Na₂S₄ in acetonitrile in the presence of small amounts of water yields (PPh₄)₂[Sn₄Cl₄S₅(S₃)O] and minor amounts of (PPh₄)₂[SnCl₂(S₆)₂], PPh₄Cl · 2S₈ and (PPh₄)₂[SnCl₆]. SnCl₄ is partially reduced by (PPh₄)₂S_x, PPh₄[SnCl₃] and (PPh₄)₂[SnCl₆] · S₈ · 2CH₃CN being produced. According to the X-ray crystal structure determination the [Sn₄Cl₄S₅(S₃)O]^2?-ion consists of an O atom that is coordinated by four Sn atoms which in turn are liked with one another by five single S atoms and one S₃ group. In the [SnCl₂(S₆)₂]^2?-ion the Sn atom is octahedrally coordinated by two Cl atoms in trans arrangement and by two chelating S₆ groups. Octahedral [SnCl₆]^2? ions and S₈ molecules in the crown conformation are present in (PPh₄)₄[SnCl₆] · S₈ · 2CH₃CN.
