Structural and Thermal Studies on the Ion-pairs [Co(NH3)6]5[HV10O28]3·18H2O and [Co(NH3)6][V2O6OH]

Two cobalt hexammine-vanadate ion-pair complexes have been prepared; one in acid medium (pH≈4) and the other in alkaline medium (pH≈10). The formed complexes were characterized by their elemental analysis, IR and XRD techniques. The complexes were subjected to thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses. The IR study suggests that the formed complexes were of the ion-pair type, while that of the thermally decomposed compounds revealed the resolution of the originally present broad V=O and V-O-V bands. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Kinetics of the thermal decomposition of [Co(NH3)6]2(C2O4)3·4H2O

The thermal decomposition of [Co(NH₃)₆]₂(C₂O₄)₃·4H₂O was studied under isothermal conditions in flowing air and argon. Dissociation of the above complex occurs in three stages. The kinetics of the particular stages thermal decomposition have been evaluated. The R_N and/or A_M models were selected as those best fitting the experimental TG curves. The activation energies,E, and lnA were calculated with a conventional procedure and by a new method suggested by Kogaet al. [10, 11]. Comparison of the results have showed that the Arrhenius parameters values estimated by the use of both methods are very close. The calculated activation energies were in air: 96 kJ mol^–1 (R_1.575, stage I); 101 kJ mol^–1 (Ain1.725 stage II); 185 kJ mol^–1 (A _2.9, stage III) and in argon: 66 kJ mol^–1 (A _1.25, stage I); 87 kJ mol^–1 (A _1.825, stage II); 133 kJ mol^–1 (A _2.525, stage III).     

First characterization of the ammine-ammonium complex [(NH4(NH3)4)2(mu-NH3)2]2+ in the crystal structure of [NH4(NH3)4][B(C6H5)4].NH3 and the [NH4(NH3)4]+ complex in [NH4(NH3)4][Ca(NH3)7]As3S6.2NH3 and [NH4(NH3)4][Ba(NH3)8]As3S6.NH3

The compound [NH4(NH3)4][B(C6H5)4].NH3 (1) was prepared by the reaction of NaB(C(6)H(5))(4) with a proton-charged ion-exchange resin in liquid ammonia. [NH(4)(NH(3))(4)][Ca(NH(3))(7)]As(3)S(6).2NH(3) (2) and [NH4(NH3)4][Ba(NH3)8]As3S6.NH3 (3) were synthesized by reduction of As(4)S(4) with Ca and Ba in liquid ammonia. All ammoniates were characterized by low-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. They were found to contain the ammine-ammonium complex with the maximal possible number of coordinating ammonia molecules, the [NH4(NH3)4]+ ion. 1 contains a special dimer, the [(NH4(NH3)4)2(mu-NH3)2]2+ ion, which is formed by two[NH4(NH3)4]+ ions linked by two ammonia molecules. The H(3)N-H...N hydrogen bonds in all three compounds range from 1.82 to 2.20 A (DHA = Donor-H...Acceptor angles: 156-178 degrees). In 2 and 3, additional H(2)N-H...S bonds to the thioanions are observed, ranging between 2.49 and 3.00 A (DHA angles: 120-175 degrees). Two parallel phenyl rings of the [B(C(6)H(5))(4)](-) anion in 1 form a pi...pi hydrogen bond (C...C distance, 3.38 A; DHA angles, 82 degrees), leading to a dimeric [B(C6H5)4]2(2-) ion.
