Syntheses and Structures of [ReNBr₂(Me₂PhP)₃] and (Me₂PhPH)[ fac ‐Re(NBBr₃)Br₃(Me₂PhP)₂] [ReNBr₂(Me₂PhP)₃] ( 1 ) has been prepared by the reaction of [ReNCl₂(Me₂PhP)₃] with Me₃SiBr in dichloromethane.

The formation of the nitrido bridge leads to a significant decrease of the structural trans influence of the nitrido ligand which is evident by the shortening of the Re‐(trans)Br bond from 2.795(1) Å in [ReNBr₂(Me₂PhP)₃] to 2.620(1) Å in [fac‐Re(NBBr₃)Br₃(Me₂PhP)₂]^– and 2.598(1) Å in [Re(NBBr₃)Br₂(Me₂PhP)₃], respectively.

X-ray structure of [Re(NO)2.09Br1.91(PPh3)2] and DFT studies of [Re(NO)2Br2(PPh3)2]

The crystal and molecular structure of [Re(NO)_2.09Br_1.91(PPh₃)₂] and DFT studies of [Re(NO)₂Br₂(PPh₃)₂] are reported. The linearly bonded nitrosyl ligands adopt cis geometry, and two bulky triphenylphosphine molecules occupy axial positions of a distorted octahedral coordination sphere. The cis-nitrosyl grouping with respect to PPh₃ molecules (π-acid ligands) is the result of the electronic influence of the multiply bonded ligand, which forces the metal nonbonding d electrons to lie in the plane perpendicular to the M–NO bond axis.     

Synthesis,molecular and electronic structure of [ReCl2(N2COPh)(C4N2H4)(PPh3)2]

A new organodiazenido rhenium complex, [ReCl₂(N₂COPh)(C₄N₂H₄)(PPh₃)₂] has been obtained from the direct reaction of [ReCl₂(η²–N₂COPh–N′,O)(PPh₃)₂] with pyrazine in acetone. The complex has been characterized by spectroscopic methods and its structure determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques.     

Darstellung,Strukturen und Eigenschaften von Tris-hexamethyl-trisila-tetraphospha-nortricyclen-bis-chromtricarbonyl [P4(Sime2)3]3[Cr(CO)3]2

Preparation, Structures, and Properties of Tris-hexamethyl-trisila-tetraphospha-nortricyclene-bis-chromiumtricarbonyl [P₄(Sime₂)₃]₃[Cr(CO)₃]₂ Hexamethyl-trisila-tetraphospha-nortricyclene P₄(Sime₂)₃ 1 reacts with C₆H₆Cr(CO)₃ or (CHT)Cr(CO)₃ (CHT ? Cycloheptatriene) under formation of [P₄(Sime₂)₃]₃[Cr(CO)₃]₂ 3 (red crystals), in which each of the Cr atoms is attached to one P atom of a P₃ ring of the three molecules 1 . 3 can also be prepared by heating a solution of P₄(Sime₂)₃Cr(CO)₅ in benzene or THF up to 120–1307deg;C. The compound 3 crystallizes in an orthorhombic and a hexagonal form, the latter being stabilized by one mole toluene. As revealed by single crystal investigations, the symmetry ¯6, distances and angles are nearly unchanged. The o-form corresponds to a face centered cubic packing of the molecules, whereas the h-form is hexagonal close packed.     

Kristallstruktur von (NMe4)2[Re3Br11(H2O)] [Re3Br9(H2O)3](H2O)2

Crystal Structure of (NMe₄)₂[Re₃Br₁₁(H₂O)] [Re₃Br₉(H₂O)₃](H₂O)₂ . (NMe₄)₂[Re₃Br₁₁(H₂O)] [Re₃Br₉(H₂O)₃](H₂O)₂ crystallizes from hydrobromic acid solution of Re₃Br₉ · 2 H₂O and NMe₄Br at 0 – 5°C. The crystal structure (monoclinic; P2₁/m (Nr. 11); a = 967.9(3); b = 1 529.7(4); c = 1 710.9(4) pm; β = 91.66(2)°; Z = 2; R = 0.113; R_w = 0.068) has been determined from four-circle diffractometer data. The structure contains two different cluster units of trivalent rhenium, isolated anionic [Re₃Br₁₁(H₂O)]^2? units and neutral cluster units that are connected through crystal water molecules to chains{[Re₃Br₉(H₂O)₃](H₂O)₂}.     

Halogenaustausch an Re3-Clustern: Ein neuer Syntheseweg für binäre und ternäre Rhenium(III)-bromide. Kristallstrukturen von Cs2[Re3Br11] und Cs3[Re3Br3Cl9]

Halogen Exchange at Re₃-Clusters: A New Synthetic Route to Binary and Ternary Rhenium(III) Bromides. Crystal Structures of Cs₂[Re₃Br₁₁] and Cs₃[Re₃Br₃Cl₉] The substitution of “inner” ligands in transition metal clusters in aqueous HX solutions is hitherto unknown. For the first time the substitution of bridging and terminal chloride for bromide ions was observed at rhenium clusters, [Re₃(μ-Cl^i,b)₃(Cl)(Cl^i,t)_(3?x)(H₂O^i,t)_x]^(3?x)? (x = 0–3), via the reaction of “ReCl₃ · 2 H₂O” in hot hydrobromic acid solution under an inert gas atmosphere. This establishes a new synthetic route to ternary Re(III) bromides as well as to ReBr₃. However, ternary Re(IV) bromides, A₂ReBr₆ (A = Rb, Cs), are dominating in the presence of oxygen, rhenium(III) bromides are only by-products. Dark brown rods of Cs₂[Re₃Br₁₁] are obtained from argon saturated, hot hydrobromic acid solutions of “ReCl₃ · 2 H₂O” and CsBr. The crystal structure (orthorhombic, Pnma (Nr. 62); a = 955.51(5); b = 1 610.29(10); c = 1 372.70(9); Z = 4; V_m = 318.0(2) cm³mol^?1; R = 0.084, R_w = 0.058) consists of defect clusters [Re₃BrBrBr□^i,t]^2? in which one in plane, terminal position is not occupied. The substitution of “inner” ligands has been observed in the case of chloride for bromide only, the Br^i,b and I^i,b ligands in ReBr₃ and ReI₃, respectively, are not substituted in hydrochloric acid even at temperatures as high as 100°C. Bordeaux red square pyramids of CsReBrCl₃ = Cs₃[Re₃(μ-Br^i,b)₃ClCl] are obtained from hot hydrochloric acid solutions of ReBr₃ · 2/3 H₂O upon evaporation. CsReBrCl₃ (orthorhombic, C2cm (Nr. 40); a = 1 419.0(1); b = 1 419.2(1); c = 1 080.30(8) pm; Z = 4; V_m = 327.6(3) cm³mol^?1; R = 0.033, R_w = 0.028) is isostructural to the corresponding chloride CsReCl₄.

Preparation and Crystal Structure of (n-Bu₄N)₃[Ir(NCS)(SCN)₅] The evaporated ethanolic extrakt of the reaction product of K₃[IrCl₆] and HNO₃, refluxed with an aqueous KSCN solution yields a mixture of the linkage isomers [Ir(NCS)_n(SCN)_6?-n]^3?, n = 0? 2, and small amounts of linkage isomeric chloropentarhodanoiridates(III), from which [Ir(NCS)(SCN)₅]^3? has been isolated by ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. The X-Ray structure determination on a single crystal of (n-Bu₄N)₃[Ir(NCS)(SCN)₅] (monoclinic, space group P 2₁/a, a = 17.513(5), b = 32.607(5), c = 23.661(5) Å, β = 94.757(5)°, Z = 8) confirms the existance of a heteroleptic hexakis(thiocyanato(N)-thiocyanato(S))iridate(III) with an Ir? N distance of 2.03 Å and Ir? S bond lengths between 2.29 and 2.38 Å. The SCN groups with angles between 166 and 175° are nearly linear with Ir? S? C angles from 99.9 to 109.4°. The Ir? N? C angles of the two crystallographic independent anions are 166 and 174°.
