Über Thallium(I)-chlorooxomolybdate: Synthese und Kristallstrukturen von Tl[MoOCl4(NCCH3)], Tl[Mo2O2Cl7] und Tl2[Mo4O4Cl14] und die Struktur von Tl2[MoCl6]

The crystal structure analysis shows that Tl₂[MoCl₆] (cubic, Fm 3¯m, a = 986.35(7) pm) adopts the K₂[PtCl₆] structure with a Mo–Cl bond length of 236.6 pm. Tl[MoOCl₄(NCCH₃)] was obtained by the reaction of TlCl with MoOCl₃ in acetonitrile in form of yellow, moisture sensitive crystals. The structure (orthorhombic, Cmcm, a = 746.0(1), b = 1463.8(3), c = 857.3(2) pm) is built of Tl⁺ cations and octahedral [MoOCl₄(NCCH₃)]^– anions in which the acetonitrile ligand is bound in trans position to the oxygen. The reaction of TlCl and MoOCl₃ in dichloromethane yields Tl[Mo₂O₂Cl₇] and Tl₂[Mo₄O₄Cl₁₄] as green moisture sensitive crystals. The structure of Tl[Mo₂O₂Cl₇] (orthorhombic, Pmmn, a = 694.3(1), b = 951.9(2), c = 904.7(1) pm) consists of Tl⁺ cations and dinuclear [Mo₂O₂Cl₇]^– anions, with two equidistant chlorine bridges of 248.2 and one longer chlorine bridge of 265.7 pm. The oxygen atoms are located in the trans positions of the longer chloro bridge.

Synthesis, Structure, and Magnetic Properties of Compounds NaM^IIZr₂F₁₁ (M^II = Ti, V, Cu) and a Notice on NaPdZr₂F₁₁ By synthesizing NaTiZr₂F₁₁ in form of red single crystals, it was possible to obtain a complex fluoride with Ti²⁺ for the first time.

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].     

Synthese,Eigenschaften und Struktur von Amin-Addukten der Lithium-tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zinkate

Synthesis, Properties, and Structure of the Amine Adducts of Lithium Tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zincates . Bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zinc and the aliphatic amine 1,3,5-trimethyl-1,3,5-triazinane (tmta) yield in n-pentane the 1:1 adduct, the tmta molecule bonds as an unidentate ligand to the zinc atom. Bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zinc · tmta crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with {a = 897.7(3); b = 1 114.4(4); c = 1 627.6(6) pm; α = 90.52(1); β = 103.26(1); γ = 102.09(1)°; Z = 2}. The central C₂ZnN moiety displays a nearly T-shaped configuration with a CZnC angle of 157° and Zn? C bond lengths of 199 pm. The Zn? N distances of 239 pm are remarkably long and resemble the loose coordination of this amine; a nearly complete dissociation of this complex is also observed in benzene. The addition of aliphatic amines such as tmta or tmeda to an equimolar etheral solution of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)methanide and bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zinc leads to the formation of the amine adducts of lithium tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zincate. Lithium tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zincate · tmeda · 2 Et₂O crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with {a = 1 920.2(4); b = 2 243.7(5); c = 2 390.9(5) pm; Z = 8}. In the solid state solvent separated ions are observed; the lithium cation is distorted tetrahedrally surrounded by the two nitrogen atoms of the tmeda ligand and the oxygen atoms of both the diethylether molecules. The zinc atom is trigonal planar coordinated; the long Zn? C bonds with a value of 209 pm can be attributed to the steric and electrostatic repulsion of the three carbanionic bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl substituents.

The deviations at low temperatures are caused by antiferromagnetic interactions. The magnetic moments are discussed with regard to ligand-field parameters.
