Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Vanadium(III) Borophosphate, V₂[B(PO₄)₃] By reaction of boron phosphate, BPO₄, and vanadium(IV)‐oxide, VO₂, at 1050 °C a hitherto unknown vanadium(III)‐borophosphate is formed. Its composition was found to be V₂BP₃O₁₂, its structure was elucidated by single crystal X‐ray diffraction, the cell parameters are: a = b = 13.9882Å; c = 7.4515Å; α = β = 90°, γ = 120°; Z = 6; space group: P6 3/m. Noteworthy features of the structure are V₂O₉ units (two V^IIIO₆ octahedra connected via their faces) and isolated trisphosphatoborate groups, B(PO₄)₃. By shared oxide ions, the aforementioned groups are interconnected, thus forming a three dimensional network. The structural relation between the title compound and an analogous chromium compound is discussed.

N‐Methylimidazolkomplexe des Berylliums: [Be(Me‐Im)4]I2 und [Be3(μ‐OH)3(Me‐Im)6]Cl3

Tetra(N‐methylimidazole)‐beryllium‐di‐iodide, [Be(Me‐Im)₄]I₂ ( 1 ), was prepared from beryllium powder and iodine in N‐methylimidazole suspension to give yellow single crystal plates, which were characterized by X‐ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy. Compound 1 crystallizes tetragonally in the space group I 2d with four formula units per unit cell. Lattice dimensions at 100(2) K: a = b = 1784.9(1), c = 696.2(1) pm, R₁ = 0.0238.

Experiments to yield crystalline products from reactions of N‐methylimidazole with BeCl₂ and (Ph₄P)₂[Be₂Cl₆], respectively, in dichloromethane solutions were unsuccessful. However, single crystals of [Be₃(μ‐OH)₃(Me‐Im)₆]Cl₃ ( 2 ) were obtained from these solutions in the presence of moisture air. According to X‐ray diffraction studies, two different crystal individuals ( 2a and 2b ) result, depending on the starting materials BeCl₂ and (Ph₄P)₂[Be₂Cl₆], respectively [ 2a : Space group P2₁/n, Z = 4; 2b : Space group P , Z = 2].

Poly[aqua[μ4‐3,3′‐(diazenediyl)dibenzoato]zinc]

The solvothermal reaction of Zn(OAc)₂·2H₂O with 3,3′‐(diazenediyl)dibenzoic acid (H₂ADB) in H₂O at 393 K afforded the title complex, [Zn(C₁₄H₈N₂O₄)(H₂O)]_n. The asymmetric unit contains half a Zn^II cation, half an ADB ligand and half a water molecule. Each Zn^II centre lies on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis and is five‐coordinated by four O atoms of bridging carboxylate groups from four ADB ligands and one O atom from a water molecule, forming a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal coordination geometry. The [Zn(H₂O)] subunits are bridged by carboxylate groups to give one‐dimensional [Zn(μ‐COO)₄(H₂O)]_n chains. The chains are linked by ADB ligands into two‐dimensional sheets, and these sheets are further connected to neighbouring sheets via hydrogen bonds (OW—HW...O), forming a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bond‐stabilized structure with an unprecedented 3⁷4¹⁷5²6² topology.

Darstellung,Kristallstruktur und Eigenschaften des Kupfer(II)‐Indium(III)‐Orthophosphats Cu3In2[PO4]4

Contributions on Crystal Chemistry and Thermal Behaviour of Anhydrous Phosphates. XXIV. Preparation, Crystal Structure, and Properties of Copper(II) Indium(III) Orthophosphate Cu₃In₂[PO₄]₄ Crystals of Cu₃In₂[PO₄]₄ were grown by chemical vapour transport (temperature gradient 1273 K → 1173 K) using chlorine as transport agent. The mixed metal phosphate forms a new structure type (P2₁/c, Z = 2, a = 8.9067(6), b = 8.8271(5), c = 7.8815(5) Å, β = 108.393(5)°, 13 atoms in asymmetric unit, 2549 unique reflections with F_o > 4σ, 116 variables, R(F²) = 0.065). The crystal structure shows a hexagonal closest packing of [PO₄]^3– tetrahedra. Close‐packed layers parallel (1 0 –1) are stacked according to the sequence A, B, A′, B′, A. The octahedral interstices in this packing are completely occupied by two In³⁺, one (Cu1)²⁺ and a “dumb bell” (Cu2)₂⁴⁺. In the latter case four of the six phosphate groups that belong to this octahedral void act as bi‐dentate ligands, thus forming dimers [(Cu2)₂O₁₀] with d_Cu–Cu = 3.032 Å. Cu₃In₂[PO₄]₄ is paramagnetic (μ_eff = 1.89 μ_B, θ_P = –16.9 K). The infrared and UV/Vis reflectance spectra are reported. The observed d‐electron levels of the Cu²⁺ cations agree well with those obtained from angular overlap calculations.
