Die Kristallstruktur von p-Tolylbis(diethyldithiocarbamato)-thallium(III) und Phenylbis(methylxanthogenato)bismut(III)

Crystal Structure of p-Tolylbis (diethyldithiocarbamato)thallium(III) and Phenylbis-(methylxanthogenato)bismut(III) The crystal structure of 4-CH₃(C₆H₄)? Tl(S₂CN(C₂H₅)₂)₂ (P2₁/c, a = 11.973(3), b = 10.692(3), c = 19.232(4) Å, β = 114.02(2)°, Z = 4) and C₆H₅-Bi(S₂COCH₃)₂ (P2₁/c, a = 6.395(2), b = 24.684(8), c = 9.732(3) Å, β = 101.38(3)°, Z = 4) was solved from X-ray diffraction data of single crystals. From the interatomic distances follows that the dithiocarbamate and xanthogenate ligands coordinate asymmetrically bidentate to the metal as presumed and exclusively through the sulfur atoms. Differences in the coordination sphere of bismut and thallium give evidence for a “stereochemically active lone pair” on the bismut atom.

π-Complexes of p-block elements: (η6-Mesitylene)tin(II) chloride tetrachloroaluminate(III), a coordination polymer

(η⁶-1,3,5-Trimethylbenzene)tin(II) chloride tetrachloroaluminate(III), (η⁶-1,3,5-C₆H₃Me₃)SnCl (AlCl₄), has been obtained from the reaction of anhydrous SnCl₂ and AlCl₃ in the molar ratio 1 : 2 in excess mesitylene as a solvent. The compound crystallizes in monoclinic needles, space group P2₁/n, containing a coordination polymer with planar four-membered rings Sn-Cl-Sn-Cl as the fundamental structural units. Each tin(II) atom of these rings is η⁶-bonded to a mesitylene ring, with the metal approximately centered over the aromatic hydrocarbon at a distance of 2.71 Å. Each of the tin(II) atoms is further connected to two tetrachloroaluminate counter ions, one of these monodentate and one bidentate. Through this mono/bidentate contacts a one-dimensional coordination polymer is generated with crystallographic centers of inversion in the middle of the Sn(Cl)₂Sn and Sn(AlCl₄)₂Sn rings. The structure is similar to that of the analogous benzene complex, but not identical owing to a different connectivity pattern. Also, the arene-Sn(II) distance is much shorter in the mesitylene complex (2.71 Å) than in the benzene complex (2.90 Å), indicating that the trimethylbenzene molecule is a much better donor than benzene.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of K₂(HSO₄)(H₂PO₄), K₄(HSO₄)₃(H₂PO₄), and Na(HSO₄)(H₃PO₄) Mixed hydrogen sulfate phosphates K₂(HSO₄)(H₂PO₄), K₄(HSO₄)₃(H₂PO₄) and Na(HSO₄)(H₃PO₄) were synthesized and characterized by X‐ray single crystal analysis. In case of K₂(HSO₄)(H₂PO₄) neutron powder diffraction was used additionally. For this compound an unknown supercell was found. According to X‐ray crystal structure analysis, the compounds have the following crystal data: K₂(HSO₄)(H₂PO₄) (T = 298 K), monoclinic, space group P 2₁/c, a = 11.150(4) Å, b = 7.371(2) Å, c = 9.436(3) Å, β = 92.29(3)°, V = 774.9(4) ų, Z = 4, R₁ = 0.039; K₄(HSO₄)₃(H₂PO₄) (T = 298 K), triclinic, space group P 1, a = 7.217(8) Å, b = 7.521(9) Å, c = 7.574(8) Å, α = 71.52(1)°, β = 88.28(1)°, γ = 86.20(1)°, V = 389.1(8)ų, Z = 1, R₁ = 0.031; Na(HSO₄)(H₃PO₄) (T = 298 K), monoclinic, space group P 2₁, a = 5.449(1) Å, b = 6.832(1) Å, c = 8.718(2) Å, β = 95.88(3)°, V = 322.8(1) ų, Z = 2, R₁ = 0,032. The metal atoms are coordinated by 8 or 9 oxygen atoms. The structure of K₂(HSO₄)(H₂PO₄) is characterized by hydrogen bonded chains of mixed H_nS/PO₄^– tetrahedra. In the structure of K₄(HSO₄)₃(H₂PO₄), there are dimers of H_nS/PO₄^– tetrahedra, which are further connected to chains. Additional HSO₄^– tetrahedra are linked to these chains. In the structure of Na(HSO₄)(H₃PO₄) the HSO₄^– tetrahedra and H₃PO₄ molecules form layers by hydrogen bonds.     

Structure and stability of solid and molten complexes in the MgCl2-AlCl3 system

A visual determination of the phase diagram of the MgCl₂-AlCl₃ system reveals the formation of two intermediate compounds. One of these compounds is MgAl₂Cl₈ crystallizing with a monoclinic unit cell, space group I2/c, with dimensions a = 12.873(1)Å, b = 7.8959(7)Å, c = 11.617(1)Å, β = 92.348(8)° and z = 4. The two crystal modifications of anhydrous magnesium chloride and the lattice parameters of aluminium chloride have been reexamined. Lattice energies for α- and β-MgCl₂ have been measured, respectively, as 661(1) and 646(4) kcal mol⁻¹. The liquidus curve on the acidic side has been used to estimate the activity of aluminium chloride. Fourier-transform IR spectra of melts with compositions ranging from 0 to 30 mol% MgCl₂ have been interpreted in terms of Al₂Cl₆, strongly perturbed Al₂Cl₇⁻ and AlCl₄⁻ entities. In particular, the tetrachloroaluminate ion acts as both a tri- and a bidentate ligand towards Mg²⁺. Neutral species, e.g. Mg(AlCl₄)₂ and Mg(Al₂Cl₆)(AlCl₄)Cl, dominate in the melt. Ab initio molecular-orbital calculations have been performed to obtain a better understanding of the Mg²⁺ —d AlCl₄⁻ interaction.     

Syntheses and crystal structures of two cadmium coordination polymers [Cd(2-mBIM)(NCS)(SCN)] n and [Cd2(2-mBIM)2(NO3)2(C4H4O4)(H2O)5] n based on bis(2-methylimidazol-1-yl)methane

Two cadmium(II) coordination polymers, [Cd(2-mBIM)(NCS)(SCN)] _n (1) and [Cd₂(2-mBIM)₂(NO₃)₂(C₄H₄O₄)(H₂O)₅] _n (2) (2-mBIM = bis(2-methylimidazo-1-yl)methane, C₄H₄O₄= succinate), have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P 1 with a = 9.0770(5) Å, b = 9.4043(4) Å, c = 19.8720(9) Å, α = 101.551(1)°, β = 93.498(1)°, γ = 108.484(1)°, V = 1562.02(13) ų, and Z = 2. Each Cd(II) is octahedrally coordinated and connected with two adjacent Cd(II)'s by double end-to-end thiocyanate bridges, resulting in the formation of 1-D zigzag chains, linked to each other via bridging 2-mBIM giving a 2-D supramolecular framework. Complex 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/n with a = 12.6543(6) Å, b = 7.7128(4) Å, c = 17.3089(9) Å, β = 109.3980(10)°, V = 1593.45(14) ų, and Z = 2. Cd(II) is coordinated with oxygen and nitrogens from two independent 2-mBIM, in a cis-configuration to form a 1-D helical structure. A 3-D supramolecular network comprised of succinate anion bridged 1-D helical chains, and weak hydrogen bonds between dimer waters gave 2-D layers.
