Wismutmonojodid BiJ,eine Verbindung mit Bi(O) und Bi(II)

Bismuth Monoiodide, a Compound with Bi(O) and Bi(II) Bismuth monoiodide was synthesized in closed tubes from the elements as well as from Bi and HgI₂ as a black coloured crystalline compound. With increasing temperature BiI passes two transitions. α-BiI is stable below 370 K and changes to β-BiI by a martensitic transition. γ-BiI is the stable modification above 564 K and decomposes at 585 K peritectically to BiI₃ and a lower iodide. All three modification crystallize in the monoclinic space group C2/m. The structures (single crystal studies) of α-BiI and β-BiI are characterized by onedimensional infinite chains [Bi₄I₄] with covalent bonds but only weak interactions in between. The [Bi₄I₄]-chains are built up by two completely different Bi atoms. Bi(A) is only bonded to three Bi whereas Bi(B) has bonds to one Bi and four I. The average bond lengths are Bi? Bi = 304.5 pm and Bi? I = 313.7 pm respectively. The configuration of the Bi(A) atoms is typical for Bi^O and that one of the Bi(B) atoms is characteristic for Bi²⁺ with the electron configuration s²p¹. Therefore, α-BiI and β-BiI are mixed valence compounds [Bi^OBi²⁺I₄]. The structures are variants of the simple cubic polonium type of structure and differ in the stacking of connected units. The structures and their transitions, the possible configurations for monohalides BiX on principle as well as the energy balances of the disproportionation of Bi⁺ are discussed together in detail.     

Über Oxidsulfide mit Åkermanitstruktur CaLaGa3S6O,SrLaGa3S6O,La2ZnGa2S6O und Sr2ZnGe2S6O

On Oxidesulfides of Åkermanitetype-Structure CaLaGa₃S₆O, SrLaGa₃S₆O, La₂ZnGa₂S₆O, and Sr₂ZnGe₂S₆O The oxide sulfides were prepared for the first time (space group and lattice constants see “Inhaltsübersicht”). The atomic positions were refined from single crystal X-ray data for CaLaGa₃S₆O and La₂ZnGa₂S₆O. Problems concerning the metal distribution on the crystallographic positions are discussed by comparing interatomic distances. The ratio c/a of the new compounds is compared with that of isotypic compounds from literature.     

Synthese und Röntgenstrukturanalyse des 8π-Elektronenringsystems S4N4O2Sn2(CH3)6 und des magnetische Verhalten von S4N4O2 und S8N8O4

Synthesis and X-Ray Structure Analysis of the 8π-Electron-Ring-System S₄N₄O₂Sn₂(CH₃)₆ and the Magnetic Properties of S₄N₄O₂ and S₈N₈O₄ S₄N₄O₂ reacts with N[Sn(CH₃)₃]₃ in a molar ratio of 1:1 to an eight-membered trimethyltin-substituted 8π-electron skeleton, S₄N₄O₂Sn₂(CH₃)₆. In contrast to known 6π-electronsystems this compound has tin atoms which are tetracoordinated. This was demonstrated on the basis of an x-ray analysis. S₄N₄O₂Sn₂(CH₃)₆ · 1/2 C₆H₆ crystallizes in the space group P2₁/c with a = 1396.0(4), b = 1190.3(4), c = 1256.7(3) pm, and β = 103.46(2)°. It was shown that the ability of coordination at the tin atom depends on the electron density. The magnetic properties of S₄N₄O₂ and S₈N₈O₄ were investigated by the Faraday method. The high diamagnetism in these ring compounds is caused by the π-electrons.     

CsPdCl3 – eine Verbindung mit [Pd2Cl6]-Baugruppen und anorganischem Kation

CsPdCl₃ – A Compound with Isolated [Pd₂Cl₆] Groups and an Inorganic Cation The crystal structure of CsPdCl₃ has been characterized by X-ray powder diffraction methods.

CsCu5S3 – eine neue Verbindung in zwei Modifikationen

CsCu₅S₃ – A New Compound existing in two Modifications CsCu₅S₃ has been obtained in form of two modifications in a flux of cesium thiocyanate. Single crystal investigations revealed a tetragonal modification closely related to the structure of TlCu₅Se₃. The orthorhombic crystallizing modification can be described as a layer structure. The copper atoms in both atomic arrangements form arrays (fragment frame structures) of the fcc copper structure. At 582 °C the orthorhombic modification transforms easily into the tetragonal one, while the reverse reaction occurs very slowly.     

PbO·6 Al2O3, eine neue Verbindung vom Typus des β-Al2O3

Zusammenfassung Eine kurze Übersicht über die Struktur der verschiedenen Verbindungen vom Typus des -Al₂O₃ wird gegeben und ein Vergleich mit dem Mineral Magnetoplumbit vorgenommen. Es wird die Ansicht vertreten, daß sämtliche Verbindungen des -Typus analog kristallisieren wie Magnetoplumbit. Die Alkali- und auch Erdalkali-Ionen können aber teilweise aus dem Gitter entfernt werden, wodurch die wechselnden analytischen Ergebnisse bedingt sind. Ein bisher fehlendes Glied in der Reihe der -Verbindungen mit der Zusamensetzung PbO·6 Al₂O₃ wurde dargestellt und beschrieben. Diese als Blei--Al₂O₃ bezeichnete Verbindung stellt ein direktes Analogon zu Magnetoplumbit dar.

---

The structures of various compounds of the type of -Al₂O₃ are reviewed, and compared with the mineral magnetoplumbite. The opinion is advocated that all compounds of the type of -Al₂O₃ crystallize analogous to magnetoplumbite. The ions of the alkali metals and alkaline earths can, however, partially be removed from the lattice, thereby leading to the various analytical compositions. One as yet missing link in this line of -compounds of the composition PbO· 6 Al₂O₃ was synthesized, and is described. this Lead--Al₂O₃ is a directly analogous to magnetoplumbite.

Improved Syntheses, Crystal Growth, and Crystal Structure Determination of P₄O₆S₂ and P₄O₆S₃ Syntheses and single crystal growths of the title compounds are described. Both compounds crystallize in the space group P2₁/c (P₄O₆S₂: a = 11.293(4); b = 6.457(3); c = 11.588(4) Å; β = 90.29(2)°, 2 450 diffractometer data, R_w = 0.035/P₄O₆S₃: a = 15.611(5); b = 8,303(3); c = 9.697(4) Å; β = 127.12(2)°, 2 481 diffractometer data, R_w = 0.034). The structural data for the series P₄O₆S_n (n = 1 – 4) thus completed are compared to their oxide analogues P₄O₆O_n (n = 1 – 4). The changes in the geometry of the P₄O₆-cage in course of its successive oxidation are discussed.     

[Cl3PNPCl3][MoNCl4], eine Verbindung mit strangartig assoziierten Anionen

[Cl₃PNPCl₃][MoNCl₄], a Compound having Columns of Stacked Anions The title compound is formed by the reaction of [Cl₃PNPCl₃]Cl with MoNCl₃ in CH₂Cl₂ and subsequent precipitation with CCl₄ in from of orange-red crystals. According to the ³¹P-NMR spectrum, the compound exists as its isomer phosphaneiminate [Cl₅Mo(NPCl₂NPCl₃)] in CD₂Cl₂/CH₃CN solution. The crystal structure of [Cl₃PNPCl₃][MoNCl₄] is isotypic with that of [Cl₃PNPCl₃][MoOCl₄] and shows the same kind of two-dimensional disorder. X-ray diffraction patterns show planes of diffuse scattering as well as Bragg reflexions. The latter correspond to an averaged structure with a = 1590.0, b = 1141.6, c = 418.0 pm, space group Pba2, Z = 2. In the averaged structure (606 reflexions, R = 0.071) the atom sites have fractional occupation. The real structure consists of square-pyramidal [MoNCl₄]^? ions stacked to form columns with alternating MoN distances of 175 and 243 pm. The packing of the columns is disordered in that the [MoNCl₄]^? pyramids point either in the +c or ?c direction. The [Cl₃PNPCl₃]⁺ ions are stacked in the c direction and show two types of disorder, namely a displacement parallel to c and a rotation by 120° about the P? P axis.

Chemistry and Structural Chemistry of Phosphides and Polyphosphides. 26. Dibariumheptaphosphidechloride Ba₂P₇Cl, a Compound with the Polycyclic Anion P Ba₂P₇Cl is formed by the synthesis of Ba₃P₁₄ from the elements in a melt of BaCl₂ (dehydrated) at 1170 K. The compound forms light rubyred platelets which decompose in protic systems immediately to phosphanes. Ba₂P₇Cl crystallizes in the space group P2₁/m with Z = 2 formular units (a = 1172.6(2) pm; b = 682.9(1) pm; c = 633.7(1) pm; β = 95.27(2)°). The structure (964 reflexions hkl, R = 0.035) is related to the NaCl type, in which the half of the anionic positions is occupied by the gravi-centers of the polycyclic anions P.

The Ba atoms are surrounded by 9 and 10 non metallic atoms, respectively. Cl^? is coordinated tetrahedrally by Ba.     

Die neuen Schichtsilicate Ba3Si6O9N4 und Eu3Si6O9N4

The New Layer‐Silicates Ba₃Si₆O₉N₄ and Eu₃Si₆O₉N₄ The new oxonitridosilicate Ba₃Si₆O₉N₄ has been synthesized in a radiofrequency furnace starting from BaCO₃, amorphous SiO₂ and Si₃N₄. The reaction temperature was at about 1370 °C. The structure of the colorless compound has been determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis (Ba₃Si₆O₉N₄, space group P3 (no. 143), a = 724.9(1) pm, c = 678.4(2) pm, V = 308.69(9)· 10⁶ pm³, Z = 1, R1 = 0.0309, 1312 independent reflections, 68 refined parameters). The compound is built up of corner sharing SiO₂N₂ tetrahedra forming corrugated layers between which the Ba²⁺ ions are located. Substitution of barium by europium leads to the isotypic compound Eu₃Si₆O₉N₄. Because no single‐crystals could be obtained, a Rietveld refinement of the powder diffractogram was conducted for the structure refinement (Eu₃Si₆O₉N₄, space group P3 (no. 143), a = 711.49(1) pm, c = 656.64(2) pm, V = 287.866(8) ·10⁶ pm³, R_p = 0.0379, R_F² = 0.0638). The ²⁹Si MAS‐NMR spectrum of Ba₃Si₆O₉N₄ shows two resonances at ?64.1 and ?66.0 ppm confirming two different crystallographic Si sites.
