The Crystal Structure of [Cd(EtOC₆H₄-N₅-C₆H₄OEt)₂(py)₂] and [Hg(tol-N₅-tol)₂(py)] The pentaazadienido complexes [M(EtOC₆H₄N₅C₆H₄OEt)₂] (M = Zn ( 1 ), Cd ( 2 )) are formed by the reaction of [M(NH₃)₄]²⁺ with [EtOC₆H₄N₅C₆H₄OEt]^? in aqueous ammonia. 2 crystallizes from pyridine as [Cd(EtOC₆H₄N₅C₆H₄OEt)₂py₂] ( 3 ) with the triclinic space group P1 and a = 937.2(2); b = 1422.7(2); c = 2085.5(2) pm; α = 75.28(1)°; β = 94.74(1)°; γ = 99.75(1)°; Z = 2. The central Cd²⁺ ion of 3 exhibits an octahedral coordination by two pyridine ligands in cis arrangement and two (N1, N3)-²⁺ chelating pentaazadienide ions. The reaction of [HgI₄]² with the 1,5-di(tolyl)pentaazadienide anion in aqueous ammonia affords [Hg(p-tol-N₅-tol)₂] ( 4 ), which crystallizes from pyridine in form of [Hg(tol-N₅-tol)₂py] ( 5 ) with the space group P1 and a = 1176.2(4); b = 1203.1(3); c = 1295.6(5) pm; α = 100.77(3)°; β = 110.08(3)°; γ = 94.29(2)°; Z = 2. In 5 the Hg²⁺ cation is threefold coordinated by two monodentate (N3)-η¹ pentaazadienid anions and one pyridine ligand. Within the N₅ chains of the pentaazadienid anions of 3 and 5 localized N? N double bonds are found in the positions N1? N2 and N4? N5 with distances between 125 and 129 pm.     

Synthese von Kupfer- und Silberkomplexen mit fünfzähnigen N,S- und sechszähnigen N,O-Chelatliganden – Charakterisierung und Kristallstrukturen von {Cu2[C6H4(SO2)NC(O)]2(C5H5N)4}, {Cu2[C5H3N(CHNC6H4SCH3)2]2}(PF6)2 und {Ag[C5H3N(CHNC6H4SCH3)2]}PO2F2

Synthesis of Copper and Silver Complexes with Pentadentate N,S and Hexadentate N,O Chelate Ligands – Characterization and Crystal Structures of {Cu₂[C₆H₄(SO₂)NC(O)]₂(C₅H₅N)₄}, {Cu₂[C₅H₃N(CHNC₆H₄SCH₃)₂]₂}(PF₆)₂, and {Ag[C₅H₃N(CHNC₆H₄SCH₃)₂]}PO₂F₂ In the course of the reaction of copper(II)-acetate monohydrate with 2,2′-bisbenzo[d][1,3]thiazolidyl in methanol the organic component is transformed to N,N′-bis-(2-thiophenyl)ethanediimine and subsequently oxidized to the N,N′-bis-(2-benzenesulfonyl)ethanediaciddiamide H₄BBSED, which coordinates in its deprotonated form two Cu²⁺ ions. Crystallisation from pyridine/n-hexane yields [Cu₂(BBSED)(py)₄] · MeOH. It forms triclinic crystals with the space group P1 and a = 995.5(2) pm, b = 1076.1(3) pm, c = 1120.7(2) pm, α = 104.17(1)°, β = 105.28(1)°, γ = 113.10(1)° and Z = 1. In the centrosymmetrical dinuclear complex the copper ions are coordinated in a square-pyramidal arrangement by three nitrogen and two oxygen atoms. The Jahn-Teller effect causes an elongation of the axial bond by approximately 30 pm. The reactions of the pentadentate ligand 2,6-Bis-[(2- methylthiophenyl)-2-azaethenyl]pyridine BMTEP with salts of copper(I), copper(II) and silver(I) yield the complexes [CU₂(BMTEP)₂](PF₆)₂, [Cu(BMTEP)]X₂ (X = BF, C1O) and [Ag(BMTEP)]X (X = PO₂F, ClO). [Cu₂(BMTEP)₂](PF₆)₂ crystallizes from acetone/diisopropyl- ether in form of monoclinic crystals with the space group C2/c, and a = 1833.2(3) pm, b = 2267.30(14) pm, c = 1323.5(2) pm, β= 118.286(5)°, and 2 = 4. In the dinuclear complex cation with the symmetry C₂ the copper ions are tetrahedrally coordinated by two bridging BMTEP ligands. The Cu? Cu distance of 278.3pm can be interpreted with weak Cu? Cu interactions which also manifest itself in a temperature independent paramagnetism of 0.45 B.M. The monomeric silver complex [Ag(BMTEP)]PO₂F₂ crystallizes from acetone/thf in the triclinic space group P1 with a = 768.7(3) pm, b = 1074.0(5) pm, c = 1356.8(5) pm, α = 99.52(2)°, β = 96.83(2)°, γ = 99.83(2)° and Z = 2. The central silver ion is coordinated by one sulfur and three nitrogen atoms of the ligand in a planar, semicircular arrangement. The bond lengths Ag? N = 240.4–261.7 and Ag? S = 257.2 pm are significantly elongated in comparison with single bonds.

The tripodal ligand N-tris(2-benzimidazolylmethyl)-amine (ntb) was used for the preparation of zinc(II) and iron(III) complexes, [Zn(SCN)(ntb)](SCN) · ⁱPrpOH ( 1 ) and [Fe(acac)(ntb)](ClO₄)₂ · 2CH₂Cl₂ · ⁱPrpOH ( 2 ). 1 has a highly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal ZnN₅ coordination geometry. The donor atoms are nitrogens of one amine, three benzimidazoles and one SCN^?. A striking feature of the complex is the length of the Zn? N_amine bond of 2.539(6)Å. The octahedral N₄O₂ coordination sphere of the iron in 2 is less distorted than that of the zinc in 1 . The metal is surrounded by an amine and three benzimidazole nitrogens of the ligand and two oxygens of the bidentate acetylacetonate co-ligand. The Fe? O bond lengths differ by about 0.1 Å. As for the unusual long Zn? N bond in 1 this is a result of a trans effect. 1 crystallizes in the space group P1 with: a = 9.530(1)Å, b = 13.402(1)Å, c = 13.578(2)Å, α = 98.83(1), β = 95.19(1), γ = 101.21(1)°, Z = 2; 2 is also triclinic, space group P1 , with: a = 9.875(6)Å, b = 12.929(10)Å, c = 18.635(15)Å, α = 94.95(8)°, β = 101.01(6)°, γ = 111.09(4)°, Z = 2.

As a by‐product the phosphaneimine complex [BeCl₂(HNPPh₃)₂] ( 1 ) can be isolated, which reacts with pyridine to give the ionic complex [BeCl(HNPPh₃)₂(Py)]Cl ( 2 ). On the other hand, the silylated phosphanimine Me₃SiNP(p‐tolyl)₃ ( 5 ) does not react with BeCl₂ or (Ph₄P)₂[Be₂Cl₆] forming the expected phosphoraneiminates. From CH₂Cl₂ solutions only the amino‐phosphonium salt [(C₇H₇)₃PNH₂]Cl ( 4 ) can be obtained. The compounds 1 ‐ 5 are characterized by single X‐ray analyses and by IR spectroscopy. 1 ·C₇H₈: Space group C2/c, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at 193 K: a = 1408.9(2), b = 1750.9(2), c = 1633.2(2) pm, β = 106.50(1)°; R₁ = 0.0385. 1 forms a molecular structure with short Be—N distances of 169.8(3) pm. 2 ·Py: Space group P1¯, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at 193 K: a = 969.5(1), b = 2077.1(2), c = 2266.4(2) pm, α = 72.24(1)°, β = 87.16(1)°, γ = 77.42(2)°, R₁ = 0.0776. 2 forms ion pairs in which the NH atoms of the phosphaneimine ligands act as hydrogen bridges with the chloride ion.

Crystal Structures of [Yb₂I(THF)₂(NPPh₃)₄] · 2 THF, [YbI₂(HNPPh₃)(DME)₂], and [{YbI₂(DME)₂}₂(μ‐DME)] When treated with ultrasound, the reaction of ytterbium powder with INPPh₃ in tetrahydrofuran leads to [YbI₂(THF)₄] and to the mixed‐valence phosphoraneiminato complex [Yb₂I(THF)₂(NPPh₃)₄] · 2 THF ( 1 ), which forms red single‐crystals.

In 1 the two ytterbium atoms are connected via the N atoms of two phosphoraneiminato groups (NPPh₃^–) to form a planar Yb₂N₂ four‐membered ring.

(Hexafluorosilicato‐κ2F,F′)bis(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ2N,N′)zinc(II) methanol monosolvate

The title compound, [Zn(SiF₆)(C₁₂H₈N₂)₂]·CH₃OH, contains a neutral heteroleptic tris‐chelate Zn^II complex, viz. [Zn(SiF₆)(phen)₂] (phen is 1,10‐phenanthroline), exhibiting approximate molecular C₂ point‐group symmetry. The Zn^II cation adopts a severely distorted octahedral coordination. As far as can be ascertained, the title complex represents the first structurally characterized example of a Zn^II complex bearing a bidentate‐bound hexafluorosilicate ligand. A density functional theory study of the isolated [Zn(SiF₆)(phen)₂] complex was undertaken to reveal the influence of crystal packing on the molecular structure of the complex. In the crystal structure, the methanol solvent molecule forms a hydrogen bond to one F atom of the hexafluorosilicate ligand. The hydrogen‐bonded assemblies so formed are tightly packed in the crystal, as indicated by a high packing coefficient (74.1%).

While 1 and 2 are reduced by LiPH(2,4,6-BuC₆H₂) to the Mo(III) complexes [Cp⁰Mo(μ? Cl)₂]₂ 3 and [Cp′Mo(μ? Cl)₂]₂ 4 , the reaction of 1 with KPPh₂(dioxane)₂ yields the reduction/substitution product [CpMo₂(μ? Cl)₃(μ?

Succinic acid molecules play an important role in supramolecular assemblies of the polymeric chains into 2D layers as well as in the stacking of 2D layers. 2 is composed of [(phen)₂Zn(μ‐L)Zn(phen)₂]²⁺ complex cations, succinate anions and hydrogen bonded water molecules. Within the divalent cations, Zn atoms are octahedrally coordinated by four N atoms of two phen ligands and two O atoms of one bis‐chelating succinato ligand.

Intermolecular C(alkyl)‐H···π interactions and the intermolecular C(aryl)‐H···O and O‐H···O hydrogen bonds are responsible for the supramolecular assembly of the [Zn(phen)(C₉H₁₅O₄)₂] complexes. Compound 2 is built up from crystal H₂O molecules and the centrosymmetric binuclear [Zn₂(phen)₂(H₂O)₂(C₁₀H₁₆O₄)₂] complex, in which two [Zn(phen)(H₂O)]²⁺ moieties are bridged by two sebacato ligands.

[Re(NPh)(OMe)Cl₂(Ph₃P)₂] · 1/2CH₂Cl₂ crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 : a = 1 103.1(4); b = 1 227.9(4); c = 1 711.3(5) pm; α = 70.48(3)°; β = 72.71(3)°; γ = 80.03(3)°; Z = 2. The rhenium atom exhibits a distorted octahedral coordination with the Cl atoms and the phosphine ligands in trans positions. As a consequence of the competition of the nitrene ligand and the trans-coordinated methoxy group the Re?;N bond length is slightly lengthened to 173.2(7) pm, while the Re? O bond length of 193.4(6) pm is short. The bond angles Re? N? C70 and Re? O? C80 are 173.3(7)° and 139.1(7)°, respectively.     

Five Coordinated Zinc(II) and Tris‐Chelate Cadmium(II) Complexes with 2,2′‐Diamino‐5,5′‐dimethyl‐4,4′‐bithiazole – Syntheses,Spectroscopic Characterization,and Crystal Structure

The new synthesized ligand (DADMBTZ = 2,2′‐diamino‐5,5′‐dimethyl‐4,4′‐bithiazole), which is mentioned in this text, is used for preparing the two new complexes [Zn(DADMBTZ)₃](ClO₄)₂. 0.8MeOH.0.2H₂O ( 1 ) and [Cd(DADMBTZ)₃](ClO₄)₂ ( 2 ). The characterization was done by IR, ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single crystal X‐ray determination. In reaction with DADMBTZ, zinc(II) and cadmium(II) show different characterization. In 2 , to form a tris‐chelate complex with nearly C₃ symmetry for coordination polyhedron, DADMBTZ acts as a bidentate ligand. In 1 , this difference maybe relevant to small radii of Zn²⁺ which make one of the DADMBTZ ligands act as a monodentate ligand to form the five coordinated Zn²⁺ complex. In both 1 and 2 complexes the anions are symmetrically different. 1 and 2 complexes form 2‐D and 3‐D networks via N‐H···O and N‐H···N hydrogen bonds, respectively.     

Synthesis,Characterization and Crystal Structures of new Palladium(II) Complexes and the first Platinum(III) Complex Containing ATT (ATT = 6‐Aza‐2‐thiothymine)

Treatment of the ligand 6‐aza‐2‐thiothymine (ATT, HL, 1 ) with palladium chloride in methanol forms the ionic complex [(HL)₄Pd]Cl₂·8MeOH ( 2 ), while its reaction with palladium iodide in same solvent produces the neutral complex trans‐[(HL)₂PdI₂]·2MeOH ( 3 ) in high yields. The reaction of 1 with Na₂[PdCl₄] in the presence of sodium acetate in a molar ratio of 2:1:2 and with platinum(II) chloride in presence of sodium acetate led to the dimer tetranuclear complexes [(L₄Pd₂)NaCl]₂·8MeOH ( 4 ) and [L₄Pt₂Cl₂]·6MeOH·H₂O ( 5 ). The latter is the first Pt^III complex of the ligand. All complexes were characterized by elemental analyses and IR spectroscopy and the crystal structures of 2 , 3 , 4 and 5 are determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction.

Homo‐ and Heteropentanuclear Coordination Compounds with Td Symmetry – the Solid State Structures of [MZn4(L)4(L′)6] (M = CoII or Zn; L = chloride or acac; L′ = 1,2,3‐benzotriazolate)

The syntheses of homo‐ and heteropentanuclear coordination compounds with the molecular formulae [MZn₄(L)₄(L′)₆] (M = Co^II or Zn; L = chloride or acac; L′ = 1,2,3‐benzotriazolate) are reported. These compounds display a highly symmetric coordination unit consisting of a central metal ion (M = Co^II or Zn) which is octahedrally coordinated by 6 tridentate benzotriazolate‐type ligands via their N(2) donor atom. The benzotriazolate ligands span the edges of an imaginary tetrahedron thus providing four coordination sites at the corners of the tetrahedron, which are then filled by four zinc ions. The coordination shell of the latter are completed by bidentate acetylacetonate (acac) ligands or by chloride anions, respectively. The solid state structures of two homopentanuclear metal complexes, namely [Zn₅(acac)₄(bta)₆]·4C₆H₁₂ ( 1 ) (acacH = acetylacetone; btaH = 1,2,3‐benzotriazole), and [Zn₅Cl₄(Me₂bta)₆]·2DMF ( 2 ) (Me₂btaH = 5,6‐dimethyl‐1,2,3‐benzotriazole) were determined by single crystal X‐ray structure analysis. The heteropentanuclear metal complex [Co^IIZn₄Cl₄(Me₂bta)₆]·2DMF ( 3 ) is isostructural with compound 2 . Compound 1 was synthesized from stoichiometric amounts of Zn(acac)₂ and btaH employing dichloromethane as solvent. The synthesis of compound 2 requires addition of an auxiliary base to the DMF solution of anhydrous ZnCl₂ and Me₂btaH. For compound 3 a stoichiometric ratio of Co(NO₃)₂·6H₂O, anhydrous ZnCl₂ and Me₂btaH was employed during synthesis. Phase purity of all compounds was proved by X‐ray powder diffraction (XRPD) analysis, IR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis.

Syntheses and Characterization of Cyanide‐Bridged Bimetallic Compounds Zn(terpy)(H2O)M(CN)4 (terpy = 2,2′:6′,2′′‐ter­pyridine; M = Ni,Pd, Pt) with Linear Chains

The self‐assembly reaction of zinc ions with tetracyanometalates in the presence of the tridentate chelated ligand 2,2′:6′,2′′‐terpyridine (terpy) yielded three cyanide‐bridged bimetallic compounds of general formula Zn(terpy)(H₂O)M(CN)₄ [M = Ni ( 1 ), Pd ( 2 ), Pt ( 3 )]. Compounds 1 – 3 were characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR), and thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. Single‐crystal XRD analysis revealed that compounds 1 – 3 are isostructural and the structure consists of [Zn(terpy)(H₂O)]²⁺ moieties and [M(CN)₄]^2– units linked alternatively to generate a one‐dimensional (1D) linear chain. The chains are further connected together through hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking interactions, forming a 3D supramolecular network. IR spectroscopic analysis indicated the presence of cyanide groups and terpy ligands in the structure. TG and powder XRD results showed that compounds 1 – 3 have higher thermal stabilities and exhibited irreversible for desorption/resorption of one coordinated water molecule.

A series of polypyridine ruthenium complexes of the general formula {Ru(Rph‐tpy)[dppz(COOH)]Cl} PF₆ with R = Br ( 1 ), Cl ( 2 ), NO₂ ( 3 ) where Rph‐tpy is 4′‐(4‐Rphenyl‐2,2′:6′,2″‐terpyridine and dppz(COOH) is dipyrido[3,2‐a:2′,3′‐c]phenazine‐2‐carboxylic acid were prepared and characterized. These complexes display intense metal‐to‐ligand charge‐transfer (MLCT) bands centered about 500 nm. The effect of pH on the absorption spectra of these complexes consisting of protonatable ligands has been investigated in water solution by spectrophotometric titration. The electrochemistry shows oxidation potentials for the Ru(II)–Ru(III) couple at +0.881 ( 1 ), +0.907 ( 2 ) and +0.447 V ( 3 ), respectively. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
