Cs4[Sc6C]Cl13 und Cs4[Pr6(C2)]I13 — zwei Beispiele für das fehlende Bindeglied bei der Verknüpfung der Baueinheiten [M6Z]XX

Cs₄[Sc₆C]Cl₁₃ and Cs₄[Pr₆(C₂)]I₁₃ — Two Examples for the Missing Link in the Connectivity of [M₆Z]X X Building Units Cs₄[Sc₆C]Cl₁₃ (tetragonal, I4₁/amd, a = 1 540.5(4), c = 1 017.9(7) pm, c/a = 0.661, Z = 4, R = 0.038, R_w = 0.026) and Cs₄[Pr₆(C₂)]I₁₃ (a = 1 804.9(3), c = 1 259.5(3) pm, c/a = 0.698, R = 0.106, R_w = 0.068) are obtained as green-black and blue-black single crystals with brass-like metallic lustre through metallothermic reduction of ScCl₃ and PrI₃, respectively, with cesium in the presence of carbon in sealed tantalum containers. The, overall, isotypic compounds contain isolated [Sc₆C] and [Pr₆(C₂)] clusters, respectively, that are surrounded by 18 halide (X) ligands (12 Xⁱ and 6 X^a; X = Cl or I). The connection is carried out via the motif [M₆Z]XXXX (M = Sc and Pr; Z = C and C₂, respectively) and is thereby the missing link of the motifs of connection for the composition A_x[M₆Z]X₁₃. Analogous interconnection of [TiO₆] octahedra is found in the anatase-type of structure of TiO₂.

Synthesis and Structure of M^II[AuF₄]₂ (M^II ? Cd, Hg) Cd[AuF₄]₂ and the isotypic compound Hg[AuF₄]₂, both are yellow, crystallize tetragonal in the space-group P4/mcc-D (No. 124) with a = 575.0/575.6 pm, c = 1034.8/1042.3 pm and Z = 2. The single-crystals were obtained by solid-state reactions in goldtubes.     

Kristallstruktur und Eigenschaften von Calcium- und Strontiumhexathiodiphosphat(IV), Ca2P2S6 und Sr2P2S6, mit einem Beitrag zu Ca5P8 und Pb2P2S6

Crystal Structure and Properties of Calcium and Strontium Hexathiodiphosphate(IV), Ca₂P₂S₆ and Sr₂P₂S₆, with a Contribution on Ca₅P₈ and Pb₂P₂S₆ Ca₂P₂S₆ and Sr₂P₂S₆ were prepared from metal and a mixture of red phosphorus and sulfur (molar ratio M:P:S = 1:1:3) in 2 corundum crucibles inserted in quartz ampullae under vacuum (20 d 900°C). The compounds were obtained as colourless, crystalline powders containing single crystals. They crystallize in the Sn₂P₂S₆ (high temperature form) type structure (P2₁/c, Z = 2): Ca₂P₂S₆ a = 653.2(2)pm, b = 728.1(2)pm, c = 1110.1(4)pm, β = 124.00(4)°, d = 2.50(2); Sr₂P₂S₆ a = 664.3(2)pm, b = 755.7(3)pm, c = 1139.7(3)pm, β = 124.07(2)°, d = 2.97(2). The anions P₂S have staggered confirmation and are arranged with the motif of a cubic close-packing. Sr²⁺ is coordinated by 8S which form a twofold face-capped trigonal prism and belong to 4P₂S. Structure calculations clearly show that Pb₂P₂S₆ also crystallizes in P2₁/c and not in Pc [1]. Also, Raman- and IR-spectra of Ca₅P₈ were recorded at 20°C. The stretching vibrations of P were assigned in analogy to those of P₂S in alkaline earth hexathiodiphosphates(IV). The range of their frequencies (480 to 340 cm^?1) is essentially smaller and shifted to smaller values compared with P₂S in Ca₂P₂S₆ and Sr₂P₂S₆ (620 to 390 cm^?1). The symmetry of P is not D_3d but C_2h as in the case of P₂S.

H ? N hydrogen bonds. The hydrogen halide salts (CH₃)₂S(O)NH₂⁺Hal^? (( 2 ), Hal^??Cl^?; ( 4 ), Hal^??Br^?) reacts with metal halides to yield (CH₃)₂S(O)NH₂⁺MHal with the complex anions (( 5 ), MHal?SbCl₄^?; ( 6 ), MHal?SbCl₅^2?; ( 7 ), MHal?SbCl₆^?; ( 8 ), MHal?SbBr₅^2?; ( 9 ), MHal?AlCl₄^?). 2 crystallizes from ethanol (96%) as [(CH₃)₂S(O)NH₂⁺Cl^?]₂ · H₂O ( 3 ). The structures of 3 (monoclinic; space group P2₁/c; a = 917.0, b = 1344.7, c = 1080.8 pm and β = 103.8°; Z = 10), 4 (orthorhombic; space group Pbcn; a = 1028.9, b = 1132.6, c = 1074.1 pm; Z = 8) and 6 (monoclinic; space group C2/c; a = 2041.1, b = 1101.4, c = 3365.6 pm and β = 153.8°; Z = 8) are determined by X-ray analysis. In 6 Sb is coordinated in a distorted octahedra by 6 Cl in three short (mean 245,5 pm; SbCl₃) and three long distances (291 to 299 pm; Cl^?). Two of the chloride ions connect the Sb atoms to infinite Sb …? Cl …? Sb chains. Except for 7 and 9 there are bridges between the NH₂ groups and the halide ions. The NH valence vibrations are discussed in view of hydrogen bonding.

Zur Insertion in die Lanthanoid–Kohlenstoffbindung Synthese und Struktur von [CpSm(C6H5CH2NNO)]2 und [K(18-Krone-6)CpYb(NCS)2]∞

On the Insertion into the Lanthanide–Carbon Bond. Synthesis and Structure of [Cp Sm(C₆H₅CH₂NNO)]₂ and [K(18-crown-6)Cp Yb(NCS)₂]_∞ The compound [CpSm(CH₂C₆H₅)(thf)] was investigated, regarding its reactions with small molecules. The main subject was to detect an insertion into the Ln–C bond. With N₂O an insertion reaction is observed, yielding the dimer [CpSm(C₆H₅CH₂NNO)]₂ ( 1 ). The structural data of 1 was collected by a single crystal X-Ray diffraction analysis. (Space group P 1, Z = 1, a = 982.8(2) pm, b = 1052.2(2) pm, c = 1383.8(3) pm, α = 89.29(3)°, β = 73.64(3)°, γ = 66.41(3)°). In the dimer, the two Samarium ions are linked via an (η¹ : η²) bridge by two benzyl diazotato ligands. A nearly planar six-membered central Sm₂N₂O₂-ring is formend. Two pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligands complete the coordination sphere of each Samarium ion, which are thus surrounded by four ligands each and have a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry. An insertion of a SCN^– fragment in the Ln–C bond could not be observed. The substitution of the benzyl ligand leads to a polymeric chain structure. The new compound [K(18-crown-6)CpYb(NCS)₂]_∞ 2 contains a tetrahedrally coordinated Yb(III)-ion. (Space group P2₁/n}, Z = 4, a = 1640.6(3) pm, b = 1482.2(3) pm, c = 1674.5(3) pm, β = 102.82(1)°).     

Nitridsulfidchloride der Lanthanide: II. Der Formeltyp M6N3S4Cl (M = La?Nd)

Nitride Sulfide Chlorides of the Lanthanides. II. The Composition M₆N₃S₄Cl (M = La? Nd) The oxidation of the “light” lanthanides (M = La? Nd) with sulfur and NaN₃ in the presence of the chlorides MCl₃ yields chlorine-poor nitride sulfide chlorides with the composition M₆N₃S₄Cl when appropriate molar ratios of the reactants are used. Additional NaCl as a flux secures complete and fast reactions (7 d) at 850°C in evacuated silica vessels as well as single-crystalline products (red-brown needles). The crystal structure was determined from X-ray single crystal data for the limiting representatives La₆N₃S₄Cl (orthorhombic, Pnma (no. 62), Z = 4, a = 1159.7(4), b = 410.95(7), c = 2756.8(9)pm, R = 0.030, R_w = 0.027) and Nd₆N₃S₄Cl (a = 1137.1(3), b = 399.34(6), c = 2687.6(9)pm, R = 0.034, R_w = 0.033). Guinier powder data revealed the cerium and praseodymium analogues to be isotypic. The crystal structure exhibits two different chains of connected [NM₄] tetrahedra which are commensurate in translation. Six crystallographically different M³⁺ are present, two of them (M1 and M2) build up the chain [(N1)(M1) · (M2)]³⁺ together with (N1)^3? by cis-edge connection of tetrahedra. The four remainders (M3? M6) arrange as pairs [N₂M₆] of edge-shared [NM₄] tetrahedra with (N2)^3? and (N3)^3? which are further connected via four vertices to form the [(M5)(N-2){(M3)_(1+1)/(1+1)(M4)_(1+1)/(1+1))}^e(N3)(M6)]⁶⁺ double chain. Bundled along [010] like a closest packing of rods, both types of chains are held together by five crystallographically different but by X-ray diffraction indistinguishable anions S^2? (S1? S4) and Cl^? adjusting the charge balance in a molar ratio of 4:1.     

Die Kristallstruktur von Perowskiten ANiIIMVIO6. II. Das Sr2NiWO6

The Crystal Structure of Perovskites A Ni^IIM^VIO₆. II. Sr₂NiWO₆ The results of an X-ray single crystal study of the perovskite Sr[Ni^IIW^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆, ordered in the octahedral sites, are given. While Sr[Ni^IITe^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆ crystallizes in a monoclinically deformed structure of the perovskite (elpasolite) type, showing a phase transition to a tetragonal lattice at 675 °K, Sr[Ni^IIW^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆ is tetragonal already at 298°K (space group: C; a = b = 5.559 Å; c = 7.918 Å; Z = 2). The Ni? O distances found for the tungsten compound are nearly identical with those of the tellurium perovskite. In contradiction to crystal field theory very different values of the ligand field parameter Δ (ca. 25%) are observed for these two compounds however. Obviously this effect is caused by the rather different kind of bonding within the NiO₆ polyhedra in the two compounds. On the basis of the structural results the Ni? O-bonding in the two perovskites is discussed in dependence of the next nearest cationic environment.

The corresponding determination of the crystal structure of MnPtF₆, yellow, confirmed the unit cell [3] with a = 510.47 pm, c = 1 421.0 pm and γ = 120°, Z = 3 space group R 3 -C (No. 148). For both compounds detailed parameters respectively interatomic distances have been obtained.

It crystallizes like the analogous greenish blue vanadium compound isotypic to AgPdZr₂F₁₁ [1] monoclinic, spacegroup C2/m–C (No. 12) with a = 918.0/911.5 pm, b = 682.6/675.7 pm, c = 780.8/776.6 pm, β = 116.2/116.2º and Z = 2. Colourless NaCuZr₂F₁₁ however crystallizes as a result of the Jahn-Teller distortion of Cu²⁺ triclinic (space group P1 –C (No. 2), a = 552.7 pm, b = 568.2 pm, c = 768.0 pm, α = 111.0º, β = 97.4º, γ = 106.4º) and is – as expected – isotypic to NaAgZr₂F₁₁ [1].

Schwingungsspektren der Clusterverbindungen (M6X)X · 8 H2O,M = Nb,Ta; Xi = CI,Br; Xa = CI,Br, I

Vibrational Spectra of the Cluster Compounds (M₆X₁₂ⁱ) · 8H₂O, M = Nb, Ta; Xⁱ = Cl, Br; X^a = Cl, Br, I IR and, for the first time, Raman spectra at 80 K of the cluster compounds (M₆X)X · 8H₂O; M = Nb, Ta; Xⁱ = Cl, Br; X^a = Cl, Br, I, have been recorded, characterized by typical frequencies of the (M₆X) unit, which are only slightly influenced by the terminal X^a ligands. The most intense line with the depolarisation ≈? 0.2 in all Raman spectra is caused by inphase movement of all atoms and assigned to the symmetric metal-metal vibration v₁, observed for the clusters (Nb₆Cl) at 233–234, for (Nb₆Br) at 186–187, for (Ta₆Cl) at 199–203, and for (Ta₆Br) at 176–179 cm^?1. The IR spectra exhibit in the same series intense bands at 233, 204, 207, and 179 cm^?1, assigned to the antisymmetric metal-metal vibration. The metal-metal frequencies are significantly higher than discussed before. The tantalum clusters show on excitation with the krypton line 647.1 nm in the region of a d–d transition at 645 nm a resonance Raman effect with series of overtones and combination bands. In case of (Ta₆Br) another polarisized band is observed at 229 cm^?1 and assigned to the Ta? Brⁱ vibration v₂. From the progressions of v₁ and v₂ anharmonicity constants of about ?3 cm^?1 are calculated indicating a strong distortion of the potential curves.

The System Cs/Cu/F: On CsCu^IICu^IIIF₆ ?CsCuF_3,6’? is described in literature as a darkbrown powder which is supposed to crystallize in a cubic lattice (a = 882 pm, Debyeogramms).

Darstellung und Struktur der Tetrafluoroaurate(III) MI[AuF4] mit MI = Li,Rb

Synthesis and Structure of Tetrafluoroaurates(III) M^I[AuF₄] with M^I = Li, Rb Single crystal investigations on Rb[AuF₄], light yellow, confirm the tetragonal unit cell (K[BrF₄]-type) with a = 618.2(1) and c = 1191(1) pm, Z = 4, space group I 4/mcm-D (No. 140). Li[AuF₄], light yellow too, crystallizes monoclinic with a = 485.32(7), b = 634.29(8), c = 1004.43(13) pm, β = 92.759(12), Z = 4; space group P 2/c-C (No. 13).

Synthese und Kristallstruktur der molekularen Clusterverbindung W6Br14

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the Molecular Cluster Compound W₆Br₁₄ Brownish-black crystals of W₆Br₁₄ are formed in the direct synthesis from W₆Br₁₂ and Br₂ (400 K). The compound crystallizes cubically with neutral cluster molecules ([W₆Br]Br): a = 13.458 Å; Pn3 (Nr. 201); d?(W? W) = 2.653 Å; d?(W? Brⁱ) = 2.616 Å; d?(W? Br^a) = 2.569 Å. The W atoms are 0.03 Å outside of the Br cube faces. The molecules are arranged according to a cF point configuration, but each is rotated ?23° about a threefold axis in order to avoid short inter cluster distances Br^a? Br^a. Nevertheless, via 12 short intermolecular distances per cluster of about d(Brⁱ …? Br^a) = 3.487 Å the clusters are interconnected by forming two independent and interpenetrating 3D nets (Cu₂O type). Although local distortion of the M₆X cluster does not occur, as is expected for this system with 22 electrons per M₆ octahedron, it is assumed that the Jahn-Teller theorem is fulfilled collectively via the low-symmetry nets of intermolecular interactions.
