Zur Polymorphie und Pseudosymmetrie der Hydrate MSeO3 · H2O (M = Mn,Co, Ni,Zn, Cd)

Polymorphic and Pseudosymmetrical Hydrates MSeO₃ · H₂O (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, Cd) By crystallization from aqueous solutions of MSeO₃ and M(HSeO₃)₂, the selenites MSeO₃ · H₂O (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, Cd) were obtained and characterized by means of X-ray diffraction and IR-spectroscopy. The crystal structure of ZnSeO₃ · H₂O was determined. The IR spectra indicate that the hydrates are isotypic and contain H₂O molecules of symmetry mm2. However, the X-ray data show different structure types with H₂O molecules of site symmetry m or 1. CdSeO₃ · H₂O and MnSeO₃ · H₂O are isotypic (o.rh., MnSeO₃ · D₂O type). CoSeO₃ · H₂O (mon.) as well as the isotypic NiSeO₃ · H₂O and ZnSeO₃ · H₂O (mon.) form new structure types. These findings are discussed on the basis of the crystal structure of ZnSeO₃ · H₂O (P2₁/n, a = 477.9(1), b = 1319.4(5), c = 570.1(1) pm, β = 90.84(2)°, Z = 4, D_x = 3.886 g · cm^?3, R = 0.035 for 722 reflections with I > 2σ₁) and the local pseudosymmetry of its components, i.e., layers [ZnSeO₃ · H₂O] of ZnO₆ octahedra sharing four equatorial vertices, SeO₃^2? anions and H₂O molecules.     

Zur Kenntnis der Hydrate M(HSeO3)2 · 4H2O (M = Mg,Co, Ni,Zn). Röntgenstrukturanalytische,schwingungsspektroskopische und thermoanalytische Untersuchungen

On the Hydrates M(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O (M = Mg, Co, Ni, Zn) – Crystal Structures, IR, Raman, and Thermoanalytical Investigations From aqueous solutions of M(HSeO₃)₂ single crystals of Mg(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O and of the hitherto unknown compounds Co(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O, Ni(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O and Zn(HSeO₃)₂ · 4H₂O could be obtained. The crystal structures, X-ray powder, IR, Raman and thermoanalytical (DTA, TG, Raman heating) data are presented and discussed. The crystal data of the isotypic compounds are: monoclinic, space group C2/c, Z = 4, Mg: a = 1 464.6(2), b = 755.3(1), c = 1 099.9(1) pm, β = 126.59(1)°, V = 0.9769(1) nm³, Co: a = 1 462.5(2), b = 756.5(2), c = 1 102.2(2) pm, β = 126.53(1)°, V = 0.9798(2) nm³, Ni: a = 1 452.2(2), b = 751.0(1), c = 1 091.5(1) pm, β = 126.28(1)°, V = 0.9595(1) nm³, Zn: a = 1 468.3(2), b = 755.8(1), c = 1 103.1(1) pm, β = 126.79(1)°, V = 0.9804(2) nm³. The crystal structures consist of hexagonal packed [M(HSeO₃)₂ · 2H₂O]_n chains of [MO₄(H₂O)₂] octahedra linked by Se atoms. They contain trigonal pyramidal SeO₂OH^?ions with “free” hydroxyl groups and also “free” molecules of water of crystallization. The hydroxyl groups build strong H-bonds (O? H …? O distances: 265–268 pm). The IR spectra show AB doublett bands in the OH stretching mode region of the hydroxyl groups. The water molecules of crystallization are linked to planar (H₂O)₄ tetramers by H-bonds with unusually short O? H …? O bond distances of 271–273 pm. DTA and TG measurements indicate that thermal decomposition results in the direct formation of the respective diselenite MSe₂O₅. Raman heating measurements show under quasi static conditions the intermediate formation of the anhydrous hydrogen selenites.     

Syntheses and Structures of Na2Mg3(OH)2(SO4)3·4H2O and K2Mg3(OH)2(SO4)3·2H2O

The crystal structures of Na₂Mg₃(OH)₂(SO₄)₃ · 4H₂O and K₂Mg₃(OH)₂(SO₄)₃ · 2H₂O, were determined from conventional laboratory X‐ray powder diffraction data. Synthesis and crystal growth were made by mixing alkali metal sulfate, magnesium sulfate hydrate, and magnesium oxide with small amounts of water followed by heating at 150 °C. The compounds crystallize in space group Cmc2₁ (No. 36) with lattice parameters of a = 19.7351(3), b = 7.2228(2), c = 10.0285(2) Å for the sodium and a = 17.9427(2), b = 7.5184(1), c = 9.7945(1) Å for the potassium sample. The crystal structure consists of a linked MgO₆–SO₄ layered network, where the space between the layers is filled with either potassium (K⁺) or Na⁺‐2H₂O units. The potassium‐bearing structure is isostructural to K₂Co₃(OH)₂(SO₄)₃ · 2(H₂O). The sodium compound has a similar crystal structure, where the bigger potassium ion is replaced by sodium ions and twice as many water molecules. Geometry optimization of the hydrogen positions were made with an empirical energy code.     

Preparation,structure, and magnetic properties of isostructural La3MAlS7 and La3MFeS7 (M = Mg,Mn, Fe,Co, Ni,or Zn)

A series of quaternary metal sulfides of the general formula La₃MM′S₇ (M = Mn, Fe, Co; M′ = Al and M = Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni; M′ = Fe) consisting of linear chains of face shared MS₆ octahedra and isolated M′S₄ tetrahedra has been prepared and studied. The aluminium compounds La₃MAlS₇ (M = Mn, Fe, Co) exhibit linear chain antiferromagnetism. Magnetic behavior of other La₃MFeS₇ sulfides has been examined in detail. The magnetic susceptibility of La₃MgFeS₇ shows that tetrahedral site Fe³⁺ undergoes a transition from $\text{S =}\text{5}\text{2}$ to S = 2 spin state around 150 K.     

Kristallstrukturen des Sr(OH)2 · H2O,Ba(OH)2 · H2O (o.-rh. und mon.) und Ba(OH)2 · 3 H2O

Crystal Structures of Sr(OH)₂ · H₂O, Ba(OH)₂ · H₂O (o.-rh. and mon.), and Ba(OH)₂ · 3 H₂O The crystal structures of Ba(OH)₂ · 3 H₂O (Pnma, Z = 4), γ-Ba(OH)₂ · H₂O (P2₁/m, Z = 2) and the isotypic Sr(OH)₂ · H₂O and β-Ba(OH)₂ · H₂O (Pmc2₁, Z = 2) were determined using X-ray single crystal data. Ba(OH)₂ · 3 H₂O and Ba(OH)₂ · H₂O mon. crystallize in hitherto unknown structure types. The structure of Ba(OH)₂ · H₂O mon. is strongly related to that of rare earth hydroxides M(OH)₃ with space group P6₃/m (super group of P2₁/m). The metal-oxygen distances are significantly shorter for OH^? ions (mean Ba—O bond lengths of all hydroxides under investigation 278.1 pm) than for H₂O molecules (289.9 pm). Corresponding to other hydrates of ionic hydroxides, the water molecules form strong hydrogen bonds to adjacent OH^? ions whereas the hydroxide are not H-bonded.     

Phase Transitions in Crystalline [M(H2O)6](ClO4)2 (M=Mg,Mn, Fe,Co, Ni,Cu, Zn,Cd and Hg)

The results of DSC measurements in the temperature range 140–370 K on nine crystalline compounds of the type [M(H₂O)₆](ClO₄)₂, where M=Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Hg, are discussed. Anomalies detected in the DSC curves are related to the existence of solid-solid phase transitions and/or to the melting points of these compounds. In consequence of two different hypothetical structural modifications of [Fe(H₂O)₆](ClO₄)₂, two DSC curves are obtained. For the compounds with M=Fe, Cd and Hg, new phase transitions have been discovered. The transition temperatures of the other phase transitions are in good agreement with literature data obtained by adiabatic calorimetry. For the compounds with M=Mg, Ni and Cd, DTA measurements were also carried out and the melting points of theses compounds were established. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Na2Mg(SO3) · 2H2O. Ein neues ternäres Magnesiumsulfit Kristallstruktur,schwingungsspektroskopische und thermoanalytische Untersuchungen

Na₂Mg(SO₃)₂ · 2H₂O. A New Ternary Magnesium Sulfite. Crystal Structure, Thermoanalytical, I.R., and Raman Data Single crystals of the hitherto unknown Na₂Mg(SO₃)₂ · 2 H₂O have been obtained by crystallization from Mg(HSO₃)₂ solutions saturated with NaCl and with the technique of gel crystallization. The crystal structure of the triclinic Na₂Mg(SO₃)₂ · 2 H₂O (P1 , Z = 1, a = 752.4(1), b = 590.3(1), c = 517.8(1) pm, α = 106.25(1), β = 109.80(1), and γ = 101.49(1)°) has been determined using single crystal X-ray diffraction data. The Mg? O distances of the nearly regular MgO₆ octahedra are between 206.6 and 210.5 pm. The MgO₆ octahedra are connected by sulfite bridges forming chains in [001], which are held together by strong hydrogen bridges. The SO₃^2? ions have nearly C_3v symmetry. The results of thermoanalytical and I.R. and Raman spectroscopic measurements are reported and discussed. The O? D stretching modes of HDO molecules in partially deuterated samples show that the water molecules differ strongly from C_2v symmetry.     

Order and disorder in mixed metal linear chains: The homo and heterobimetallic EDTA (M(H2O)4OIOII)[M′(EDTA)] · 6H2O complexes (M = Mg,Mn, Co,Zn and Ni; M′ = Co,Ni, Cu and Zn)

Summary Polymetallic solid solutions of the ethylenediaminetetracetic acid (EDTA) and six divalent metal ions exist in the range: MgMnCoZnNiCu(EDTA) · 6H₂O where + + + + + =2, 01, 0,,2, 0, 1.This type of structure is characterized by the presence of two different octahedral carboxylate-bridged coordination sites forming infinite zig-zag chains. Visible and i.r. spectra and t.g.a. analysis show that there is occupational preference for the two coordination sites in the crystalline structure.Due to this preference, and also to the structural features, the heterobimetallic MM(EDTA) · 6H₂O compounds constitute a structurally new class of materials which can be described as ordered alternating-heterobimetallic polymeric coordination complexes.

Bimetallic assemblies, [Ni(en)2]3[M(CN)6]2·3H2O (en = H2NCH2CH2NH2; M = Fe,Co)

The reaction between tris(ethyl­enedi­amine)­nickel(II) cations and hexa­cyanometallate(III) anions (M = Fe, Co) yields ordered bimetallic assemblies, catena‐poly­[[tris­(ethyl­enedi­amine)­nickel‐bis(μ‐hexa­cyano­iron‐N,N′)] trihydrate] and catena‐poly­[[tris­(ethyl­enedi­amine)­nickel‐bis(μ‐hexa­cyano­cobalt‐N,N′)] trihydrate], [{Ni(C₂H₈N₂)₂}₃{M(CN)₆}₂]·3H₂O, in which both cis and trans [Ni(en)₂] and [M(CN)₆] moieties are linked to give S‐shaped Ni–NC–M–CN–Ni–NC–M–CN–Ni units which are cross­linked to give ribbons parallel to the b axis. The two compounds are isomorphous with mean metal–ligand distances Fe—C = 1.940 (3), Co—C = 1.844 (3) and Ni—N = 2.102 (2) Å for the iron, and 2.105 (3) Å for the cobalt compound. These compounds appear to be identical with those formulated as [Ni(en)₂]₃[M(CN)₆]₂·2H₂O [Ohba, Maruona, Okawa, Enoki & Latour (1994). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 116 , 11566–11567; Ohba, Fukita & Okawa (1997). J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 1733–1737] which were indexed on a smaller unit cell and described as disordered.

K2M(H2P2O7)2·2H2O (M = Ni,Cu, Zn): ortho­rhom­bic forms and Raman spectra

The crystal structures of three isotypic ortho­rhom­bic dihydrogendiphosphates, namely dipotassium copper(II)/nickel(II)/zinc(II) bis­(dihydrogendiphosphate) dihydrate, K₂M(H₂P₂O₇)₂·2H₂O (M = Cu, Ni and Zn), have been refined from single‐crystal data. The M²⁺ and K⁺ cations are located at sites of m symmetry, and the P atoms occupy general positions. These compounds also exist in triclinic forms with very similar structural features. The structures of both forms are compared, as well as the geometry of the MO₆ octa­hedron, which is considerably elongated towards the water mol­ecules for M = Ni and Cu. Such elongation has not been observed among the other representatives of the family. A Raman study of the whole series K₂M(H₂P₂O₇)₂·2H₂O (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn and Mg) is reported.     

Monodisperse MFe2O4 (M = Fe, Co, Mn) nanoparticles

High-temperature solution phase reaction of iron(III) acetylacetonate, Fe(acac)(3), with 1,2-hexadecanediol in the presence of oleic acid and oleylamine leads to monodisperse magnetite (Fe(3)O(4)) nanoparticles. Similarly, reaction of Fe(acac)(3) and Co(acac)(2) or Mn(acac)(2) with the same diol results in monodisperse CoFe(2)O(4) or MnFe(2)O(4) nanoparticles. Particle diameter can be tuned from 3 to 20 nm by varying reaction conditions or by seed-mediated growth. The as-synthesized iron oxide nanoparticles have a cubic spinel structure as characterized by HRTEM, SAED, and XRD. Further, Fe(3)O(4) can be oxidized to Fe(2)O(3), as evidenced by XRD, NEXAFS spectroscopy, and SQUID magnetometry. The hydrophobic nanoparticles can be transformed into hydrophilic ones by adding bipolar surfactants, and aqueous nanoparticle dispersion is readily made. These iron oxide nanoparticles and their dispersions in various media have great potential in magnetic nanodevice and biomagnetic applications.     

Syntheses,Crystal Structures and Properties of the Tetrametaphosphimates MII2(PO2NH)4 · 8 H2O with MII = Mg,Mn, Co and Zn

Mg₂(PO₂NH)₄ · 8 H₂O ( 1 ), Mn₂(PO₂NH)₄ · 8 H₂O ( 2 ), Co₂(PO₂NH)₄ · 8 H₂O ( 3 ) and Zn₂(PO₂NH)₄ · 8 H₂O ( 4 ) were obtained as microcrystalline powders by combining aqueous solutions of K₄(PO₂NH)₄ · 4 H₂O and MX₂ · y H₂O (M = Mg, Mn, Co, Zn; X = Cl, NO₃). Single crystals were obtained by crystallization in gelatine gels in U‐tubes or test‐tubes. 2 and 4 were characterized by thermogravimetry and 4 was additionally characterized by temperature dependend in situ powder diffractometry. The structures of 1 , 2 , 3 and 4 were found to be isotypic and were solved by single‐crystal X‐ray methods: P 2₁/c, Z = 2 ( 1 : a = 645.4(2), b = 1050.1(2), c = 1283.3(3) pm, β = 104.66(3)°; 2 : a = 648.7(2), b = 1063.1(2), c = 1310.8(3) pm, β = 103.93(3)°; 3 : a = 643.3(2), b = 1049.0(2), c = 1286.7(3) pm, β = 104.28(3)°; 4 : a = 644.18(5), b = 1049.22(7), c = 1282.43(8) pm, β = 104.122(6)°). The structure is composed of MO₆ octahedra and (PO₂NH)₄^4— anions. The P₄N₄ rings of the (PO₂NH)₄^4— anions exhibit a slightly distorted chair conformation, which is supported by IR data and has been described by torsion angles, Displacement Asymmetry Parameters and Puckering Parameters. Via M²⁺ ions and hydrogen bonds, the tetrametaphosphimate anions are connected forming layers perpendicular to [100]. These layers are connected by hydrogen bonds.
