Tetracyanometallates with Complex Dien Cations: [Ni(dien)2][Ni(CN)4]·2H2O and [Ni(dien)2][Pd(CN)4]

The crystal structures of two square tetracyanocomplexes were determined. [Ni(dien)₂][Ni(CN)₄]·2H₂O (NDNCH) and [Ni‐(dien)₂][Pd(CN)₄] (NDPC) (dien = diethylene triamine) exhibit ionic structures consisting of mer‐[Ni(dien)₂]²⁺ cations and [Ni(CN)₄]^2‐ or [Pd(CN)₄]^2‐ anions, respectively.

NDNCH dehydrates on air quickly yielding anhydrous [Ni(dien)₂][Ni(CN)₄] (NDNC). Its thermal decomposition proceeds in a complicated process followed by aerial oxidation of metallic nickel to NiO.

Structures of Planar and Tetrahedral Tetrafulminato Metal Complexes: [N(C₃H₇)₄]₂ [Ni(CNO)₄], [N(C₃H₇)₄]₂ [Pt(CNO)₄], and [N(C₃H₇)₄]₂ [Zn(CNO)₄] The crystals contain the tetrafulminatometallates of an ideal square planar structure ([Ni(CNO)₄]^2–, [Pt(CNO)₄]^2–) with D_4h symmetry at the nickel and platinum atom and a tetrahedron ([Zn(CNO)₄]^2–) with perfect T_d symmetry at the zinc atom and with linear C≡N–O ligands. The metal carbon bonds (Ni–C: 187 pm, Pt–C: 200 pm, Zn–C: 201 pm) of the metal fulminates are very close to those of the corresponding cyano complexes. In the crystals the anions ([Ni(CNO)₄]^2–, [Pt(CNO)₄]^2–, [Zn(CNO)₄]^2–) are separated by the cations ([N(C₃H₇)₄]⁺) which explains the thermal stability of these compounds.     

Binary salt of a palladium(II) complex with (phosphonomethyl)phosphonic (medronic) acid comprising `handbell‐like' [Pd{μ‐CH2(PO3)2}]3 units

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, dipotassium bis[hexaaquanickel(II)] tris(μ₂‐methylenediphosphonato)tripalladium(II) hexahydrate, K₂[Ni(H₂O)₆]₂[Pd₃{CH₂(PO₃)₂}₃]·6H₂O, consists of half a {[Pd{CH₂(PO₃)₂}]₃}⁶⁻ anion [one Pd atom (4e) and a methylene C atom (4e) occupy positions on a twofold axis] in a rare `handbell‐like' arrangement, with K⁺ and [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ cations to form the neutral complex, completed by three solvent water molecules. The {[Pd{CH₂(PO₃)₂}]₃}⁶⁻ units exhibit close Pd...Pd separations of 3.0469 (4) Å and are packed via intermolecular C—H...Pd hydrogen bonds. The [KO₉] and [NiO₆] units are assembled into sheets coplanar with (011) and stacked along the [100] direction. Within these sheets there are [K₄Ni₄O₈] and [K₂Ni₂O₄] loops. Successive alternation of the sheets and [Pd{CH₂(PO₃)₂}]₃ units parallel to [001] produces the three‐dimensional packing, which is also supported by a dense network of hydrogen bonds involving the solvent water molecules.
