Hydrate schwacher und starker Basen. VII. Zum System Caesiumhydroxid-Wasser: Die Kristallstrukturen von CsOH · 2H2O und CsOH · 3H2O

Hydrates of Weak and Strong Bases. VII. Concerning the System Cesium Hydroxide—Water: The Crystal Structures of CsOH · 2H₂O and CsOH · 3H₂O In the context of structural studies of hydrates of the alkali metal hydroxide the crystal structure of CsOH · 2H₂O and CsOH · 3H₂O have been determined for the first time. The diffractometer data, obtained at -150 · C,made it possible to locate and refine also all the H-atoms. The dihydrate was found to probably form only one phase, melting incongruently at 2,5 · C. It is orthorhombic with space group Pca2₁ and Z = 8 formula units per unit cell. The lattice constants are a = 13.238, b = 6.747 and c = 9.121 A. With 1870 independent observed reflection a final R value of 0.013 was obtained. The trihydrate, melting congruently et -5.5 ·C, is monoclinic with space group P2₁/n,Z = 4 and lattice constants a = 8.637, b = 5.984, c = 10.061 Å and ß = 96.57 ·. With 2098 independent observed reflection the final R is 0.026. In both hydrate structures there are no simple characteristic coordination polyhedra for the cations; in each case it is rather the hydrogen-bonded and fully ordered anionic water structure which shows up as the determining building principle. Both these water structures are altogether three-dimensional, but primarily contain layers. The anionic layers are formed by condensation of small and medium rings, namely four-, five- and seven-membered rings in CsOH · 2H₂O and four-, five- and six membered ones in CsOH · 3H₂O. They are linked together by one set each of extra H₂O molecules between the layers as well as by the Cs⁺ ions.

In both structures, the nearest coordination environment of Cu is a slightly distorted square formed by N (from NH₃) and O atoms (from NO₃ groups). The structure of I consists of centrosymmetrical [Cu(NH₃)₂](NO₃)₂ molecules linked by hydrogen bonds. The Cu? N and Cu? O distances are 1.98 and 2.01 Å, respectively. In II , the Cu? N distance is 1.95 Å, the Cu? O distances are 1.96, 2.02, and 2.03 Å. The [CuO₃NH₃] squares are connected by NO₃ bridges into zigzag chains, which are linked into layers by longer Cu? O interactions (2.31 Å). Obviously, the layers are additionally strengthened and held together by hydrogen bonds.

Counter‐anion role in the formation of two supramolecular complexes: [Ag2(DPP)2](ClO4)2·CH3CN and [Ag2(DPP)2(NO3)2] {DPP is N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine}

The title compounds, bis{μ‐N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine‐κ²N¹:P}disilver bis(perchlorate) acetonitrile monosolvate, [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂](ClO₄)₂·CH₃CN, (1), and bis{μ‐N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine‐κ²N¹:P}bis[(nitrato‐κ²O,O)silver], [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂(NO₃)₂], (2), each contain disilver macrocyclic [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂]²⁺ cations lying about inversion centres. The cations are constructed by two N‐[(diphenylphosphanyl)methyl]pyridin‐4‐amine (DPP) ligands linking two Ag⁺ cations in a head‐to‐tail fashion. In (1), the unique Ag⁺ cation has a near‐linear coordination geometry consisting of one pyridine N atom and one P atom from two different DPP ligands. Two ClO₄⁻ anions doubly bridge two metallomacrocycles through Ag...O and N—H...O weak interactions to form a chain extending in the c direction. The half‐occupancy acetonitrile molecule lies with its methyl C atom on a twofold axis and makes a weak N...Ag contact. In (2), there are two independent [Ag(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)]⁺ cations. The nitrate anions weakly chelate to each Ag⁺ cation, leading to each Ag⁺ cation having a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry consisting of one pyridine N atom and one P atom from two different DPP ligands, and two chelating nitrate O atoms. Each dinuclear [Ag₂(C₁₈H₁₇N₂P)₂(NO₃)₂] molecule acts as a four‐node to bridge four adjacent equivalent molecules through N—H...O interactions, forming a two‐dimensional sheet parallel to the bc plane. Each sheet contains dinuclear molecules involving just Ag1 or Ag2 and these two types of sheet are stacked in an alternating fashion. The sheets containing Ag1 all lie near x = , , etc, while those containing Ag2 all lie near x = 0, 1, 2 etc. Thus, the two independent sheets are arranged in an alternating sequence at x = 0, , 1, etc. These two different supramolecular structures result from the different geometric conformations of the templating anions which direct the self‐assembly of the cations and anions.

The obtained refinement of the structures, including the localization also of the H atoms for the first time, has led to new findings with respect to the H bonds. In particular, in both hydrates there is one such interaction of the rare type OH^? …? OH₂, from an OH^? ion to an H₂O molecule, i. e. with the OH^? ion as the proton donor.

Die Kristallstrukturen von K8Ta6O19 · 16H2O und K7NaTa6O19 · 14H2O

The Crystal Structures of K₈Ta₆O₁₉ · 16H₂O and K₇NaTa₆O₁₉ · 14H₂O By alkaline digestion of Ta₂O₅ with p.a. KOH transparent single crystals of the composition K₈Ta₆O₁₉ · 16H₂O are formed.

A novel mononuclear gold(I) complex: Synthesis and x-ray structure of [Au{P(C6H5)3}3][SiF5] · 1.5 CH2Cl2

Tris(triphenylphosphine)gold(I)-pentafluorosilicate(IV) ([Au{P(C₆H₅)₃}₃][SiF₅]) was prepared and the structure was determined by single crystal x-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 (No. 2). The lattice constants are a = 14.634(2) Å, b = 17.180(2) Å, c = 22.212(3) Å, α = 86.48(1)°, β = 78.95(1)°, γ = 83.99(1)°. Number of molecules per cell: Z = 4. The gold atoms are coordinated to three triphenylphosphine ligands to form the trigonal planar cation [Au{P(C₆H₅)₃}₃]⁺. Separated from the cation is the [SiF₅]^? anion which is regular trigonal bipyramidal coordinated. No interactions between the fluorine atoms and the gold atoms were observed.
