Synthesis and Spectroscopic Characterization of Copper(II) and Nickel(II) Tricyanomethanide Complexes with Imidazoles – Crystal Structure of [Cu{C(CN)₃}₂(2-meiz)₂] The copper(II) and nickel(II) tricyanomethanide complexes with imidazoles of the type [Cu{C(CN)₃}₂L₄], [L = 2- or 4-methylimidazole (meiz)] and [M{C(CN)₃}₂L₂] [M = Cu, L = imidazole (iz), 2- or 4-meiz; M = Ni, L = iz, 2- or 4-meiz] were prepared and characterized by electronic, infrared, and – some of them – by ESR spectroscopy. The structure [Cu{C(CN)₃}₂(2-meiz)₂], solved by X-ray crystallographic analysis, shows a two-dimensional network with unsymmetric C(CN)₃-bridges between the Cu^II atoms. Polymeric structures with bridging C(CN)₃-groups were identified by means of spectroscopic methods also for the other [M{C(CN)₃}₂L₂] complexes. On the other hand, for the complexes [M{C(CN)₃}₂L₄] follow molecular structures, in which monodentate C(CN)₃ ligands are present. All compounds under investigation show a tetragonal-bipyramidal geometry with various degree of tetragonal distortion.     

Anionische Nickel-Pseudohalogenid-Komplexe der Typen [Ni{N(CN)2}3]− und [Ni{N(CN)2}2(NCS)2]2−

Metal Pseudohalides. XXXIX. Dicyanamide Complexes of Palladium(II) and Platinum(II) of the Type M{N(CN)₂}₂L₂ The synthesis of mixed dicyanamide complexes of the type M{N(CN)₂}₂L₂ (M: Pd, Pt) is reported. Infrared and NMR-spectroscopic investigations are indicating the hitherto undescribed coordination type M? N(CN)₂ of the anionic ligand.     

Synthesis,structure and magnetic properties of 2-D and 3-D [cation]{M[Au(CN)2]3} (M = Ni, Co) coordination polymers

In order to study the templating effect of the cation and the resulting impact on the magnetic properties, reactions of M(II) salts with [cation][Au(CN)₂] were conducted, yielding a series of coordination polymers of the form [cation]{M[Au(CN)₂]₃} (cation = ⁿBu₄N⁺, PPN⁺ (bis(triphenylphosphoranylidene)ammonium); M = Ni(II) and Co(II)). The structures of ⁿBu₄N{M[Au(CN)₂]₃} and PPN{M[Au(CN)₂]₃} (M = Ni and Co) contain two distinct 3-D anionic frameworks of {M[Au(CN)₂]₃}⁻, hence the framework was sensitive to the cation, but not to the identity of the metal center. In ⁿBu₄N{M[Au(CN)₂]₃}, the metal centers are connected by [Au(CN)₂] units to form six 2-D (4, 4) rectangular grids that are fused through the M centers to yield a complex three-dimensional framework which accommodates the ⁿBu₄N⁺ cations. In PPN{M[Au(CN)₂]₃}, the framework adopts a simpler non-interpenetrated Prussian-blue-type pseudo-cubic array, with the PPN⁺ cations occupying each cavity; no reduction in dimensionality occurs despite the large cation size. In the presence of water, {Co(H₂O)₂[Au(CN)₂]₂} · ⁿBu₄N[Au(CN)₂] was obtained, a 2-D layered polymer that contains neutral sheets of {Co(H₂O)₂[Au(CN)₂]₂} which are separated by ⁿBu₄N[Au(CN)₂] layers; aurophilic interactions of 3.4250(13) Å and hydrogen-bonding connect the layers. The magnetic properties of all compounds were investigated by SQUID magnetometry. The Ni(II) polymers have similar magnetic behaviour, which are dominated by zero-field splitting with very weak antiferromagnetic interactions at low temperature (D ∼ 2–3 cm⁻¹, zJ < 1 cm⁻¹). The magnetic behaviour of all of the Co(II) polymers were found to be very similar, and dominated by single-ion effects (i.e. a large first-order orbital contribution). No significant magnetic coupling is observed in any of these coordination polymers, suggesting that the [Au(CN)₂] bridging unit behaves as a poor mediator of magnetic exchange in these high-dimensionality systems.     

Structural Organization of Nickel(II), Zinc(II), and Copper(II) Complexes with Diisobutyldithiocarbamate: EPR, <Superscript>13</Superscript>C and <Superscript>15</Superscript>N CP/MAS NMR,and X-Ray Diffraction Studies

The structures and spectroscopic properties of nickel(II), zinc(II), and copper(II) complexes with dibutyl- and diisobutyldithiocarbamate were studied by EPR and ¹³C and ¹⁵N CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. According to the EPR data, copper(II) forms mononuclear [^63/65Cu{S₂CNR₂}₂] and heterobinuclear complexes [^63/65CuZn{S₂CNR₂}₄] under magnetic dilution conditions. The isomeric forms of nickel(II) and zinc(II) diisobutyldithiocarbamates were detected by ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR spectroscopy. The crystalline zinc(II) diisobutyldithiocarbamate was found to have a unique structural organization with alternating mononuclear [Zn{S₂CN(i-C₄H₉)₂}₂] and binuclear molecular forms [Zn₂{ S₂CN(i-C₄H₉)₂}₄] in the 1 : 1 ratio.     

Nickel(II) complexes with dicyanamide and tetramines

Four new pseudohalide complexes of the type [NiL{N(CN)₂}₂] (L = N(CH₂CH₂NH₂)₃, TAA; triethylenetetramine, TTA) and [NiL{N(CN)₂}]ClO₄ have been prepared and characterized by spectroscopic and magnetic methods. The X-ray crystal structures of [Ni(TAA){N(CN)₂}₂] and [Ni(TTA){N(CN)₂}₂] have been determined, and analyses show that in both complexes the Ni ion posseses distorted octahedral geometry. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility of [Ni(TTA){N(CN)₂}](ClO₄) was measured, but no antiferromagnetic interaction was detected.     

Metall-Pseudohalogenide. XLIII. Anionische Tricyanmethanid-Komplexe des Palladium (II) und Platin (II)

I.R., ¹³C-N.M.R., and ESCA investigation are indicating for these complexes relative weak metal-ligand interactions.     

Characterising lone-pair activity of lead(II) by 207Pb solid-state NMR spectroscopy: coordination polymers of [N(CN)2]- and [Au(CN)2]- with terpyridine ancillary ligands

A series of lead(II) coordination polymers containing [N(CN)₂]^? (DCA) or [Au(CN)₂]^? bridging ligands and substituted terpyridine (terpy) ancillary ligands ([Pb(DCA)₂] ( 1 ), [Pb(terpy)(DCA)₂] ( 2 ), [Pb(terpy){Au(CN)₂}₂] ( 3 ), [Pb(4′‐chloro‐terpy){Au(CN)₂}₂] ( 4 ) and [Pb(4′‐bromo‐terpy)(μ‐OH₂)_0.5{Au(CN)₂}₂] ( 5 )) was spectroscopically examined by solid‐state ²⁰⁷Pb MAS NMR spectroscopy in order to characterise the structural and electronic changes associated with lead(II) lone‐pair activity. Two new compounds, 2 and [Pb(4′‐hydroxy‐terpy){Au(CN)₂}₂] ( 6 ), were prepared and structurally characterised. The series displays contrasting coordination environments, bridging ligands with differing basicities and structural and electronic effects that occur with various substitutions on the terpyridine ligand (for the [Au(CN)₂]^? polymers). ²⁰⁷Pb NMR spectra show an increase in both isotropic chemical shift and span (Ω) with increasing ligand basicity (from δ_iso=?3090 ppm and Ω=389 ppm for 1 (the least basic) to δ_iso=?1553 ppm and Ω=2238 ppm for 3 (the most basic)). The trends observed in ²⁰⁷Pb NMR data correlate with the coordination sphere anisotropy through comparison and quantification of the Pb? N bond lengths about the lead centre. Density functional theory calculations confirm that the more basic ligands result in greater p‐orbital character and show a strong correlation to the ²⁰⁷Pb NMR chemical shift parameters. Preliminary trends suggest that ²⁰⁷Pb NMR chemical shift anisotropy relates to the measured birefringence, given the established correlations with structure and lone‐pair activity.     

Magnetic and spectral properties of the coligand isomer pair: Cu{N(CN)2}2(pyrazole)2 and Cu{pyrazole · N(CN)2}2

Summary New coligand isomers of composition Cu{N(CN)₂}₂(pz)₂ and Cu{pz · N(CN)₂}₂ (pz = pyrazole) were prepared and studied by measuring their magnetic susceptibilities up to 4.2K and by aid of their e.s.r., ligand field and i.r. spectra. The susceptibility data have been analysed with various models for the exchange-coupled copper(II) polymers. It is shown that the resultant exchange coupling is ferromagnetic for Cu{N(CN)₂}₂(pz)₂ (J 1.1 - 1.4 cm^–1) but antiferromagnetic for Cu{pz · N(CN)₂}₂ (J –0.4 cm^–1). A polymeric chain structure is proposed for Cu{N(CN)₂}₂(pz)₂ havingpseudo-octahedrally coordinated copper(II) and CN-bridging dicyanamide ligands. Its coligand isomer contains anionic chelate ligands, formed by nucleophilic addition between N(CN)₂ and pz in the copper(II) coordination sphere, and giving with this central atom a square-planar system. Definite, but slight axial interaction takes place between these structure units.     

Osmium(II)-Phthalocyanine: Darstellung und Eigenschaften von Di(acido)phthalocyaninatoosmaten(II)

Osmium(II) Phthalocyanines: Preparation and Properties of Di(acido)phthalocyaninatoosmates(II) “H[Os(X)₂Pc^2?]” (X = Br, Cl) reacts in basic medium or in the melt with (ⁿBu₄N)X forming less stable, diamagnetic, darkgreen (ⁿBu₄N)₂[Os(X)₂Pc^2?]. Similar dicyano and diimidazolido(Im) complexes are formed by the reaction of “H[Os(Cl)₂Pc^2?]” with excess ligand in the presence of [BH₄]^?. The cyclic voltammograms show up to three quasireversible redoxprocesses: E_1/2(I) = 0.13 V (X = CN), ?0.03 V (Im), ?0.13 V (Br) resp. ?0.18 V (Cl) is metal directed (Os^II/III), E_1/2(II) = 0.69 V (Cl), 0.71 V (Br), 0.83 V (CN), 1.02 V (Im) is ligand directed (Pc^2?/?) and E_1/2(III) = 1.17 V (Cl) resp. 1.23 V (Br) is again metal directed (Os^III/IV). Between the typical “B” (～16.2 kK) and “Q” (～29.4 kK), “N regions” (～34.1 kK) up to seven strong “extra bands” of the phthalocyanine dianion (Pc^2?) are observed in the uv-vis spectrum. Within the row CN > Im > Br > Cl, most of the bands are shifted slightly, the “extra bands” considerably more to lower energy in correlation with E_1/2(I). The vibrational spectra are typical for the Pc^2? ligand with D_4h symmetry. M.i.r. bands at 514, 909, 1 173 and 1 331 cm^?1 are specific for hexa-coordinated low spin Os^II phthalocyanines. In the resonance Raman (r.r.) spectra polarized, depolarized or anomalously polarized deformation and stretching vibrations of the Pc^2? ligand will be selectively enhanced, if the excitation frequency coincides with “extra bands”. With excitation at ～19.5 kK the intensity of the symmetrical Os? X stretching vibration at 295 cm^?1 (X = Cl), 252 cm^?1 (X = Im) and 181 cm^?1 (X = Br) is r.r. enhanced, too. The asymmetrical Os? X stretching vibration is observed in the f.i.r. spectrum at 345 cm^?1 (X = CN), 274 cm^?1 (X = Cl), 261 cm^?1 (X = Im) and 200 cm^?1 (X = Br).     

Structural organization and thermal behavior of the heteropolynuclear complex [Au2{S2CN(CH3)2}4][ZnCl4] and the heterovalent complex ([Au{S2CN(CH3)2}2][AuCl2]) n obtained in the chemisorption system [Zn2{S2CN(CH3)2}4]-Au3+/2 M HCl

Reactions of freshly precipitated binuclear zinc dimethyldithiocarbamate with [AuCl₄]^? anions in 2 M HCl were studied. The heteropolynuclear complex [Au₂{S₂CN(CH₃)₂}₄][ZnCl₄] (I) and the polymeric heterovalent complex ([Au{S₂CN(CH₃)₂}₂][AuCl₂]) _n (II) were preparatively isolated from the chemisorption system [Zn₂{S₂CN(CH₃)₂}₄]-Au³⁺/2 M HCl. The products were characterized by ¹³C MAS NMR data and by X-ray diffraction determination of crystal and molecular structures. The principal structural units of compounds I and II are the tetragonal planar complex cations [Au{S₂CN(CH₃)₂}₂]⁺ (in which the complex-forming ion coordinates two MDtc ligands in the S,S′-bidentate mode) and the anions, namely, the distorted tetrahedral anion [ZnCl₄]^2? in I and the linear [AuCl₂]^? anion in II. The further structural self-organization of complexes at the supramoleular level occurs through relatively weak secondary bonds Au?S and Au?Cl. The chemisorption capacities of zinc dimethyldithiocarbamate calculated from gold(III)-binding reactions are 644.1 and 1288.2 mg of gold per gram of the sorbent. Simultaneous thermal analysis studies of the thermal behavior of I and II were used to elucidate the conditions of gold recovery.     

Preparations,IR spectra and crystal structures of cyano-bridged bimetallic complexes of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) with tetracyanopalladate(II)

The novel heteronuclear compounds [Zn(hydet-en)₂Pd(CN)₄] (1) and [Cd(hydet-en)₂Pd(CN)₄] (2) {hydet-en: N-(2-hydroxyethyl-ethylenediamine)} have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses and IR spectra. The crystal structures of 1 and 2 have been determined by X-ray diffraction. Structural analysis shows that both compounds have shown a polymeric chain, in which the Zn(II)/Pd(II) and Cd(II)/Pd(II) centres are linked by two CN groups. Both zinc and cadmium atoms are six coordinate with two trans cyanide–nitrogen and four hydet-en N atoms in a distorted octahedron arrangement; the palladium atoms in 1 and 2 are four coordinate with four cyanide-C atoms in a square planar arrangement. The chains in both compounds are connected through weak interchain hydrogen bonds, N–H?···?O, N–H?···?N and O–H?···?N, thereby forming a three-dimensional network.     

Spektroskopische Untersuchungen an Eisen(II)-nitrosodicyan-methanid- und -nitrosocarbamoylcyanmethanid-Komplexen [Fe(NOC(CN)2)2(C5H5N)4] und [Fe(NOC(CN)C(O)NH2)2(C5H5N)2]

Spectroscopic Investigations of the Iron(II) Nitrosodicyanomethanide and Nitrosocarbamoylcyanomethanide Complexes [Fe(NOC(CN)₂)₂(C₅H₅N)₄] and [Fe(NOC(CN)C(O)NH₂)₂(C₅H₅N)₂] The syntheses of new iron(II) complexes of the nonlinear pseudohalides [NOC(CN)₂]^? and [NOC(CN)C(O)NH₂]^? is reported.

Trans-bis(dicyanamido)nickel(II) complexes with polyaza macrocyclic ligands

Two new trans-bis(dicyanamido)nickel(II) macrocyclic complexes, [Ni(II)(L1){N(CN)₂}₂] · H₂O (1) and [Ni(II)-(L3){N(CN)₂}₂] (2), where L1 is 3,10-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-1,3,5,8,10,12-hexaazacyclotetradecane and L3 is 3,14-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatricyclo[14,4,0^1.18,0^7.12]docosane, have been synthesized and structurally characterized by spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic methods. In (1) and (2), each central nickel(II) ion possesses a distorted octahedral geometry with four equatorial nitrogen atoms from the macrocycle and two axial nitrogen atoms from dicyanamide anions, which are terminally bonded to the central nickel atom. The solid state electronic spectra of (1) and (2) using the diffuse reflectance method show a characteristic high-spin d⁸ nickel(II) ion in a distorted octahedral environment.     

Low‐dimensional compounds containing cyano groups. XVI. (Dicyanamido‐κN1)bis(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ2N,N′)copper(II) tetrafluoridoborate

The title compound, [Cu{N(CN)₂}(C₁₂H₈N₂)₂]BF₄, was prepared as part of our study of the shape of coordination polyhedra in five‐coordinated copper(II) complexes. Single‐crystal X‐ray analysis reveals that the structure consists of [Cu{N(CN)₂}(phen)₂]⁺ cations (phen is 1,10‐phenanthroline) and BF₄⁻ anions. The Cu centre is five‐coordinated in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal manner by four N atoms of two phen ligands and one N atom of a dicyanamide anion, which is coordinated in the equatorial plane at a distance of 1.996 (2) Å. The two axial Cu—N_phen distances have similar values [average 1.994 (6) Å] and are shorter than the two equatorial Cu—N_phen bonds [average 2.09 (6) Å]. This work demonstrates the effect of ligand rigidity on the shape of coordination polyhedra in five‐coordinated copper(II) complexes.     

Thermal N(CN)2-bridging reactions of dicyanamide complexes Ni{N(CN)2}2Ln in solid phase

The stoichiometry of thermal decomposition reactions was studied for the following compounds: Ni{N(CN)₂}_2py2 (I) (py-pyridine), Ni{N(CN)₂}₂(2-Mepy)₂ (II), Ni{N(CN)₂}₂(3-Mepy)₂ (III) and Ni{N(CN)₂}₂(4-Mepy)₃ (IV). In complexes I and II the loss of the volatile heterocyclic ligands occurs in one step while in complexes III and IV in two steps. Magnetic and spectral data indicated pseudooctahedral configuration for all complexes. The course of thermal N(CN)₂-bridging reactions of the complexes studied are discussed.

Cyanidverbrückte Koordinationspolymere aus cis‐ oder trans‐[Ru(tBuNC)4(CN)2] und MnCl2: Zum Einfluß unterschiedlicher Topologien auf die magnetischen Eigenschaften von Materialien

Cyanide Bridged Coordination Polymers from cis‐ or trans‐[Ru(^tBuNC)₄(CN)₂] and MnCl₂: About the Influence of Different Topologies on the Magnetic Properties of Materials The reaction of cis‐ or trans‐[Ru(^tBuNC)₄(CN)₂] with MnCl₂ as an additional transition metal fragment yields the one dimensional coordination polymers {cis‐[Ru(CN)₂(^tBuNC)₄] MnCl₂}_n, ( 1 ), and {trans‐[Ru(CN)₂(^tBuNC)₄]MnCl₂}_n, ( 2 ), with a different arrangement of the metal centers caused by the different stereochemistry of the starting compounds. The variation of the Ru‐C‐N‐Mn geometry nevertheless leads to significant differences in the magnetic properties of 1 and 2 . The coordination polymer derived from trans‐[Ru(^tBuNC)₄(CN)₂] shows a more efficient antiferromagnetic intrachain interaction between the manganese centers compared to the cis‐derivative.     

Potassium bis(ethylenediamine)­copper(II) ferricyanide

The title compound, potassium bis(ethylenediamine‐N,N′)copper(II) hexacyanoferrate(III), K[Cu(C₂H₈N₂)₂]‐[Fe(CN)₆], contains [Cu(en)₂]²⁺ and [Fe(CN)₆]^3? complex ions, where en is ethylenediamine. The Fe^III and K⁺ ions lie on twofold axes and the Cu^II atom lies on an inversion center. The [Cu(en)₂]²⁺ ion has square‐planar coordination with a mean Cu—N distance of 1.992 (2) Å and the [Fe(CN)₆]^3? ion has distorted octahedral coordination with a mean Fe—C distance of 1.947 (2) Å.     

New heterometallic coordination polymers based on zinc(II) complexes with Schiff-base ligands and dicyanometallates: synthesis,crystal structures,and luminescent properties

Four new d¹⁰ heterometallic coordination polymers have been obtained using three Schiff-base ligands, zinc(II) nitrate, and dicyanometallates: ₁^∞[{Zn₃(Salen)₂}{μ-Au(CN)₂}₂] (1); ₁^∞[Zn(Saldmen){μ-Ag(CN)₂}]·2H₂O (2); ₁^∞[Zn(Salampy){μ-Ag(CN)₂}] (3); ₁^∞[Zn(Salampy){μ-Au(CN)₂}] (4). The Schiff bases are obtained from condensation of salicylaldehyde with ethylenediamine (H₂Salen); N,N-dimethyl-ethylenediamine (HSaldmen) and, respectively, 2-aminomethyl-pyridine (HSalampy). The dicyanometallates are K[Ag(CN)₂] and K[Au(CN)₂]. The compounds were characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, UV–vis spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. In compound 1, the homotrimetallic units, {Zn₃(salen)₂}²⁺, are connected by two [Au(CN)₂]^? bridges, forming a 1-D double chain. In compounds 2–4, the crystal structures show polymeric zigzag chains generated by the mononuclear zinc(II) nodes and [M(CN)₂]^? spacers. The luminescence properties of the new heterometallic polymers have also been investigated.     

Kronenthioetherkomplexe des Blei(II), Zink(II) und Cadmium (II) und Cadmium(II). Die Kristallstrukturen von [PbL2(ClO4)2] und [ZnL2](ClO4)2 · CH3CN (L = 1,4,7 - Trithiacyclononan)

Crown Thioether Complexes of Lead (II), Zinc(II), and Cadmium (II). Crystal Structures of [PbL₂(ClO₄)₂] and [ZnL₂](ClO₄)₂ · CH₃CN (L = 1,4,7 - Trithiacyclononane) The reaction of 1,4,7-trithiacyclononane (L) with the perchlorate salts of lead(II) and zinc(II) in CH₃CN (2:1) affords colorless crystals of [PbL₂(ClO₄)₂] and [ZnL₂](ClO₄)₂ · CH₃CN, respectively, The crystal structures have been determined. The Pb^II centre is coordinated to six sulfur atoms (the average distance Pb? S is 3.076 Å) and two oxygen atoms, one of each ClO₄^? anion (monodentate ClO₄^?). A distorted square antiprismatic polyhedron is thus generated. In [ZnL₂](ClO₄)₂ · CH₃CN the zinc(II) centre is octahedrally surrounded by six sulphur atoms (average distance Zn? S = 2.494 Å); the ClO₄^? anions are not coordinated. For[CdL₂](ClO₄)₂ · H₂O an analogous structure is proposed.
