The crystal structure is built up from mixed cationic and anionic layers. Bipyridiniumpentaiodide C₁₀H₉N₂I₅ crystallizes at room temperature monoclinically in P2₁/c with a = 887.3(5) pm, b = 2 527.9(12) pm, c = 830.7(3) pm, β = 106.78(5)° and Z = 4. The crystal structure contains triiodide ions I₃^? till now uniquely connected by iodine molecules I₂ in a trigonal planar way.

Studies on Polyhalides. 30 On Decamethylferriciniumpolyiodides [(Me₅C₅)₂Fe]I_x with x = 3, 5, 6.5: Preparation and Crystal Structures of a Triiodide (DMFc)I₃, a Pentaiodide (DMFc)I₅ and a Hexacosaiodide (DMFc)₄I₂₆ Decamethylferrocene (DMFc) may be oxidized by iodine analogous to ferrocene (Fc) to the decamethylferrocenium ion (DMFc)⁺ and precipitated as the crystalline solids decamethylferrocenium triiodide (DMFc)I₃, decamethylferrocenium pentaiodide (DMFc)I₅ and tetracisdecamethylferrocenium hexacosaiodide (DMFc)₄I₂₆. The two compounds with higher iodine content are new. These are characterized by X-ray diffraction methods on single crystals. The structures are built up from complex cations of expected geometry and isolated or remarkably connected polyiodide ions. Decamethylferrocenium triiodide C₂₀H₃₀FeI₃ crystallizes monoclinically in C2/m with a = 1489.9(4) pm, b = 1133.0(2) pm, c = 765.9(3) pm, β = 111.76(3)° and Z = 2. The crystal structure follows the CsCl-type and contains isolated triiodide ions of the linear symmetric form. Decamethylferrocenium pentaiodide C₂₀H₃₀FeI₅ crystallizes monoclinically in P2₁/c with a = 1130.0(2) pm, b = 1442.6(1) pm, c = 1716.6(2) pm, β = 96.62(1)° and Z = 4. The crystal structure may be deduced from the primitiv quadratic bundle of alternating cationic and anionic rods. It contains exceptionally isolated somewhat opened out pentaiodide ions. Tetrakisdecamethylferrocenium hexacosaiodide (C₂₀H₃₀Fe)₄I₂₆ crystallises monoclinically in P2₁/n with a = 1331.3(8) pm, b = 1319.4(4) pm, c = 3564(2) pm, β = 90.84(5)° and Z = 2. The crystal structure of this compound with unusual composition may be described as an inclusion compound with channels for the cations. The outstanding anionic grating may be derived from the primitive cubic lattice of iodide ions with iodine bridges on all edges by removing systematically 1/12 of the iodine molecules.

Studies on Polyhalides. 11 Preparation and Crystal Structure of Diethylmethylphenylammoniumtriiodide, Et₂MePhNI₃ Diethylmethylphenylammoniumtriiodide C₁₁H₁₈NI₃ crystallizes at room temperature monoclinically with a = 824.1(2) pm, b = 1 428.5(2) pm, c = 1 430.0(2) pm, β = 103.17(3)° and Z = 4. The crystal structure is build up from layers of the quarternary ammonium ions Et₂MePhN⁺ and of the triiodide ions I₃^?, which alternate with each other along [1 0 0]. The packing of these layers and of the groups within each layer seems to be particularly effective without forming noticeable short contact distances.

I) = 389.0(1) pm, φ(I—I …? I) = 149.12(2)°).

Studies on Polyhalides. 41. On Ethylmethyldiphenylammoniumpolyiodides (EtMePh₂N)I_x with x = 3, 5: Preparation and Crystal Structures of a Triiodide (EtMePh₂N)I₃ and a Pentaiodide (EtMePh₂N)I₅ So far unknown compounds (EtMePh₂N)I_x with x = 3 and 5 have been prepared and structurally characterized. The triiodide (EtMePh₂N)I₃ crystallizes monoclinically in C2/c with a = 3406.1(3) pm, b = 893.1(1) pm, c = 1222.7(1) pm, β = 99.24(1)° and Z = 8. The crystal structure contains cationic and two kinds of anionic layers alternating along [1 0 0]. One anionic layer is composed of triiodide ions forming the typical and widespread observed herring‐bone pattern. The other one contains zigzag chains (I^– · I₂) along [0 0 1] as a so far not observed structural motif. The pentaiodide (EtMePh₂N)I₅ crystallizes triclinically in P 1 with a = 1020.7(1) pm, b = 1023.1(1) pm, c = 1269.5(1) pm, α = 81.88(1)°, β = 72.66(1)°, γ = 60.65(1)° and Z = 2. The crystal structure is divided into along [0 1 1] alternating puckered cationic and anionic layers. The anions have the common shape of a V, but are here of the rare isolated type. From a topological view two pentaiodide ions are connected to chairlike decagonal rings which are concatenated along [0 1 1].

Tetramminecopper(II)hexaiodide [Cu(NH₃)₄I₃]I₃ (II) crystallizes orthorhombically in the space group Pnnm with a = 874.9 pm, b = 1 089.8 pm, c = 885.3 pm, and Z = 2 formula units. A special feature of these structures are coordinated polyiodide ions I₄^2? (I) or I₃^? (II). In both compounds four coplanar nitrogen atoms and two axial iodine atoms form a quasi-octahedral coordination around copper with the usual (4+2)-tetragonal distortion. The copper ions are connected by linear, centrosymmetric polyiodide ions I₄^2? (I) or I₃^? (II). Therefore infinite planar zigzag chains of units [Cu(NH₃)₄I₄] (I) or [Cu(NH₃)₄I₃]⁺(II) are resulting. The counterion I₃^? (II) is intercalated between these chains.

The dispiro system is formed by a central disilacyclobutane and two C-spiro connected trisilacyclohexane rings. The symmetry of the molecule is 2/m, with flattened six membered rings in chair conformation. The Si? C bonds are enlarged (192 pm) at the strained spiro region whereas the Si? C bonds are distinctly shortened (186 pm) at the opposite Si atoms in the six membered rings.

Crystal Structure of the “Supramolecular” Complex [Cs₂(18-crown-6)][HgI₄] with Unusually Coordinated Cs Ions The reaction of 18-crown-6, 1,4,7,10,13,16-hexaoxacyclooctadecane, with HgI₂/CsI in methanol yields crystals of [Cs₂(C₁₂H₂₄O₆)][HgI₄]. The compound crystallizes monoclinically, space group P2₁/c, Z = 4, a = 1574.8(3), b = 1067.0(3), c = 1693.2(6) pm, and β = 98.29(3)º. The structure consists of a network made up of two different types of [Cs-(18-crown-6)-Cs]²⁺ cations, interconnected by [HgI₄]^2? anions.

The Crystal Structures of [(C₁₇H₁₇N₂)GdBr₂(thf)₂] and [(C₁₇H₁₇N₂)₃Ln] (L = Sm, Gd) Reaction of [(AIP)Li] with GdBr₃ leads to a new mononuclear complex [(AIP)GdBr₂(thf)₂] 1 .

Neue Polyiodide des Caesiums mit Doppel‐ und Tripeldecker‐Kationen, [Cs(Benzo‐18‐Krone‐6)2]Ix und [Cs2(Benzo‐18‐Krone‐6)3](Ix)2 (x = 3, 5)

New Polyiodides of Cesium containing Double and Triple Decker Cations, [Cs(benzo‐18‐crown‐6)₂]I_x and [Cs₂(benzo‐18‐crown‐6)₃](I_x)₂ (x = 3, 5) [Cs(b18c6)₂]I_x (x = 3 (1) , 5 (3) ) and [Cs₂(b18c6)₃](I_x)₂ (x = 3 (2) , 5 (4) ) (b18c6 = benzo‐18‐crown‐6) have been synthesized by the reaction of benzo‐18‐crown‐6 (C₁₆H₂₄O₆), cesium iodide (CsI) and iodine (I₂) in acetonitrile ( 1 ), ethanol/dichloromethane ( 2 , 4 ) and 2‐methoxyethanol ( 3 ). Their crystal structures were determined on the basis of single crystal X‐ray data {( 1 ): monoclinic, C2/c, Z = 4, a = 2048.8(5), b = 1329.5(5), c = 1588.7(5) pm, β = 110.23(1)°; ( 2 ): monoclinic, C2/c, Z = 4, a = 2296.0(1), b = 2092.7(1), c = 1373.6(1) pm, β = 100.21(1)°; ( 3 ): monoclinic, P2₁/n, Z = 4, a = 1586.3(1), b = 1745.5(1), c = 1608.6(1) pm, β = 92.37(1)°; ( 4 ): triclinic, , Z = 2, a = 1241.7(1), b = 1539.8(2), c = 1938.4(2) pm, α = 91.15(1), β = 100.53(1), γ = 95.26(1)°}. As expected, double decker cations centered by Cs atoms, [Cs(b18c6)₂]⁺, are found in the structures of ( 1 ) and ( 3 ). In contrast, the triple decker cation found in ( 2 ) and ( 4 ) is less common. The triiodide anions of ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) can be regarded as normal and the chain‐type pentaiodide anions of ( 3 ) and ( 4 ) fall into the known systematic sequence of these anions. The differences in the connectivity of the crystallographically independent I₅^? anions in ( 4 ) are surprising with respect to the fact that, so far, independent pentaiodide anions do not show variations in their scheme of connectivity within one crystal structure.

Ph₃SiSBr crystallizes in space group P1 with a = 899.3(8) pm, b = 941.3(7) pm, c = 1 051.4(7) pm, α = 109.88(5)°, β = 99.23(6)°, γ = 96.78(6)° and Z = 2. Ph₃SiSH crystallizes in space group P2₁/c with a = 1 879.4(8), b = 966.3(5), c = 1 845.2(9), β = 107.84(4), Z = 8. The halogenosulfanes decompose in polar solvents by formation of sulphur and triphenylsilanhalide.     

Neue Ergebnisse auf dem Gebiet der Komplexchemie der Lanthanoiden Die Strukturen von [(C11H21N2)2LnBr] (Ln = Sm,Gd)

New Results in the Chemistry of Lanthanoide Complexes. The Crystal Structures of [(C₁₁H₂₁N₂)₂LnBr] (Ln = Sm, Gd) LnBr₃ leads with [(ⁱPr₂AIP)Li] (AIP = 2-ⁱPropylamino-4-ⁱPropylimino-2-Pentene) to the mononuclear complex [(ⁱPr₂AIP)₂LnBr] (Ln = Gd 1 , Sm = 2 ). The structures of 1 – 2 were characterized by X-ray single crystal structure analysis.
