The dimeric anions of 1 and 2 form planar, centrosymmetric complex units.     

Self－assembly of Novel Hetero[3]rotaxane, [2]Rotaxanes and [2]Catenane

One linear template 13 and one cyclophane template 15, both incorporating two electron rich 1,4‐dialkoxybenzene units and one diamide unit, have been synthesized. By utilizing donor‐acceptor interaction and/or intermolecular hydrogen bonding assembling principles, one novel hetero[3]rotazane 22·4Cl, possessing one neutral and one tetracationic ring components, has been synthesized from 13, through neutral [2]rotaxane 21 as intermediate. With 15 as template, tetracationic [2]catenane 23·4PF₆ was assembled by using donor‐acceptor interaction, but no neutral [2]rotaxane could be obtained under the typical conditions of hydrogen bonding assembling principle. The interlocked supramolecular compounds have been characterized and their spectral properties are investigated.

Vibrational Spectra and Magnetic Properties of Eu3[BN2]2 and LiEu4[BN2]3

Eu₃[BN₂]₂ and LiEu₄[BN₂]₃ were synthesized from a stoichiometric mixture of EuN, BN, europium metal and Li₃N, EuN and BN (ratio: 1:4:3) in sealed niobium ampoules at 1475 and 1275 K, respectively. Temperature dependent susceptibility measurements of Eu₃[BN₂]₂ and LiEu₄[BN₂]₃ show Curie‐Weiss behavior with experimental magnetic moments of 8.03(5) and 8.5(1) μ_B/Eu atom, respectively, compatible with divalent europium. Both nitridoborates order ferromagnetically at T_C = 32.0(5) K (Eu₃[BN₂]₂) and 22.0(5) K (LiEu₄[BN₂]₃). The saturation magnetizations of 5.73(5) μ_B/Eu atom at 5 K and 7 T for Eu₃[BN₂]₂ and 4.2 μ_B/Eu atom at 5 K and 2 T for LiEu₄(BN₂)₃ are smaller than the maximum value of 7 μ_B. ¹⁵¹Eu Mössbauer data of Eu₃[BN₂]₂ at 4.2 K show an isomer shift of —11.4(1) mm/s and an experimental line width of 3.1(2) mm/s. Full magnetic hyperfine field splitting with 26.2(3) T at the europium nuclei is detected. Vibrational spectra of Eu₃[BN₂]₂ are interpreted on the basis of discrete [BN₂]^3— units with symmetry D_∞h by taking into account the existence of two crystallographically independent [BN₂]^3— anions and their dynamic coupling in the unit cell (factor group splitting).     

Darstellung und Schwingungsspektren von Dichloro- und Dibromodithiophosphat Die Kristallstrukturen von [PPh3Me] [PS2Cl2] und [PPh4] [PS2Br2]

Preparation and Vibrational Spectra of Dichloro and Dibromodithiophosphate. Crystal Structures of [PPh₃Me][PS₂Cl₂] and [PPh₄][PS₂Br₂] Dichloro and dibromodithiophosphates [Cat⁺][PS₂X₂^?] with a large organic cation can be obtained from P₄S₁₀, CatX and HX in CH₂Cl₂ (Cat⁺ = PPh₄⁺, PPh₃Me⁺; X = Cl, Br). The vibrational spectra (i.r. and Raman) of the [PS₂X₂]^? ions are reported and discussed; force constants were calculated. The crystal structures of [PPh₃Me][PS₂Cl₂] and [PPh₄][PS₂Br₂] were determined and refined with X-ray diffraction data. In both cases, simple anions [PS₂X₂]^? are present. [PPh₃Me][PS₂Cl₂]: orthorhombic, space group P2₁2₁2₁, a = 1089, b = 1334, c = 1476 pm, Z = 4, refinement to a residual index R = 0.046 for 1116 reflexions; the structure is isotopic with [PPh₃Me][VO₂Cl₂]. [PPh₄][PS₂Br₂]: tetragonal space group I4 , a = 1301, c = 721 pm, Z = 2, refinement to R = 0.065 for 357 reflexions; the structure is isotypic with [AsPh₄][FeCl₄] with [PS₂Br₂]^? ions occupying positions of 4 -symmetry with statistical orientation (statistical superposition of Br and S positions).     

Synthesis and Structure of Ba[ZrN2] and Ba2[NbN3]

Ba₃N₂ reacts at 950°C under pure N₂ with Zr to yield dark red, air-sensitive Ba[ZrN₂]. This new compound crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P4/nmm with a = 416.10(2), c = 839.2(1) pm and Z = 2. The crystal structure was solved and refined using X-ray and neutron powder diffraction data. In the nitrido zirconate [ZrN₂]^2? the Zr atoms exhibit a square-pyramidal coordination by five N atoms at distances of 201(3) and 220.2(2) pm. The pyramids share all the edges in the basal plane to form layers parallel to (001) with their apices alternately pointing up and down. The Ba²⁺ cations are integrated into these layers at the levels of the pyramidal apices. The structure can be interpreted as a stuffed PbFCl type. Ba₂[NbN₃] is formed by the reaction of Ba₃N₂ and NbN or of Ba and Nb at 1 000°C under N₂. Isostructural to Ba₂[TaN₃] it crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with a = 613.2(3), b = 1 176.8(3), c = 1 322.9(4) pm, β = 91.65(2)°, Z = 8. The nitrido niobate anions form chains of corner sharing NbN₄ tetrahedra with distances Nb? N between 188(1) and 199.9(9) pm.     

Reactivity of allenoates toward aziridines: [3+2] and formal [3+2] cycloadditions

The reactivity of buta-2,3-dienoates toward aziridines is reported. Allenoates react as 2π-component in the [3+2] cycloaddition with the azomethine ylide generated from cis-1-benzyl-2-benzoyl-3-phenylaziridine affording 4-methylenepyrrolidines in a site-, regio-, and stereoselective fashion. Under conventional thermolysis, cis- and trans-2-benzoyl-1-cyclohexyl-3-phenylaziridines showed a different reactivity. These aziridines participate in formal [3+2] cycloadditions with allenes via C-N bond cleavage of the three-membered ring leading to functionalized pyrroles.     

Photochemically induced [4+2]- versus [3+2]-cycloreversion reaction of hexasubstituted 2,3-diaza-bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-enes

Hexasubstituted 2,3-diaza-bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-enes containing large substituents at C-4 and C-6 upon irradiation undergo a novel [4+2]cycloreversion reaction leading to 2,3-diazahexatriens besides the normal [3+2]cycloreversion.     

TA on Mo(W)/Cu(Ag)/S clusters derived with [Cp*MS3]- Kinetics of [PPh4]2[Cp*WS3(CuBr)3]2 and [PPh4]2[Cp*MoS3(CuBr)3]2

Thermal analysis on two new heterometallic sulfide clusters, [PPh4]2[WS3(CuBr)3]2 and [PPh4]2[MoS3(CuBr)3]2 (where PPh4=tetraphenyl phosphonium, =pentamethylcyclopenta- dienyl), was carried out using a simultaneous TG-DTA unit in an atmosphere of flowing nitrogen and at various heating rates. Supplemented using EDS method, their thermal behavior and properties, together with the composition of their intermediate product, were examined and discussed in connection with their distinctive molecular structure as a dianion, which provided some theoretically and practically significant information. Both clusters decomposed in a two-step mode, but without a stable new phase composed of Mo/W-Cu-S formed during their decomposition process as we expected. Based on TG-DTG data, four methods, i.e. Achar-Brindley-Sharp, Coats-Redfern, Kissinger and Flynn- Wall-Ozawa equation, were used to calculate the non-isothermal kinetic parameters and to determine the most probable mechanisms. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Syntheses, structures, and spectroscopic properties of K9Nd[PS4]4, K3Nd[PS4]2, Cs3Nd[PS4]2, and K3Nd3[PS4]4

Four new quaternary alkali neodymium thiophosphates K 9Nd[PS 4] 4 ( 1), K 3Nd[PS 4] 2 ( 2), Cs 3Nd[PS 4] 2 ( 3), and K 3Nd 3[PS 4] 4 ( 4) were synthesized by reacting Nd with in situ formed fluxes of K 2S 3 or Cs 2S 3, P 2S 5 and S in appropriate molar ratios at 973 K. Their crystal structures are determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data: 1: space group C2/ c, a = 20.1894(16), b = 9.7679(5), c = 17.4930(15) A, beta = 115.66(1) degrees , and Z = 4; 2: space group P2 1/ c, a = 9.1799(7), b = 16.8797(12), c = 9.4828(7) A, beta = 90.20(1) degrees , and Z = 4; 3: space group P2 1/ n, a = 15.3641(13), b = 6.8865(4), c = 15.3902(13) A, beta = 99.19(1) degrees , and Z = 4; 4: space group C2/ c, a = 16.1496(14), b = 11.6357(7), c = 14.6784(11) A, beta = 90.40(1) degrees , and Z = 4. The structure of 1 is composed of one-dimensional (1) infinity{Nd[PS 4] 4} (9-) chains and charge balancing K (+) ions. Within the chains, eight-coordinated Nd (3+) ions, which are mixed with K (+) ions, are connected by [PS 4] (3-) tetrahedra. The crystal structures of 2 and 3 are characterized by anionic chains (1) infinity{Nd[PS 4] 2} (3-) being separated by K (+) or Cs (+) ions. Along each chain the Nd (3+) ions are bridged by [PS 4] (3-) anions. The difference between the structures of 2 and 3 is that in 2 the Nd (3+) ions are coordinated by four edge-sharing [PS 4] (3-) tetrahedra while in 3 each Nd (3+) ion is surrounded by one corner-sharing, one face-sharing, and two edge-sharing [PS 4] (3-) tetrahedra. The structure of 4 is a three-dimensional network with K (+) cations residing in tunnels running along [110] and [110]. The {Nd(1)S 8} polyhedra share common edges with four [PS 4] tetrahedra forming one-dimensional chains (1) infinity{Nd[PS 4] 2} (3-) running along [110] and [110]. The chains are linked by {Nd(2)S 8} polyhedra yielding the final three-dimensional network (3) infinity{Nd[PS 4] 2} (3-). The internal vibrations of both crystallographically independent [PS 4] (3-) anions of 2- 4 have been assigned in the range 200-650 cm (-1) by comparison of their corresponding far/mid infrared and Raman spectra (lambda exc = 488 nm) on account of locally imposed C 1 symmetry. In the Fourier-transform-Raman spectrum (lambda exc = 1064 nm) of 2- 4, very similar well-resolved electronic Raman (ER) transitions from the electronic Nd (3+) ground-state to two levels of the (4)I 9/2 ground manifold and to the six levels of the (4)I 11/2 manifold have been determined. Resonant Raman excitation via a B-term mechanism involving the (4)I 15/2 and (4)F 3/2 intermediate states may account for the significant intensity enhancement of the ER transitions with respect to the symmetric P-S stretching vibration nu 1. Broad absorptions in the UV/vis/NIR diffuse reflectance spectrum at 293 K in the range 5000-25000 cm (-1) of 2- 4 are attributed to spin-allowed excited quartet states [ (4)(I < F < S < G < D)] and spin-forbidden doublet states [ (2)(H < G < K < D < P)] of Nd (3+). A luminescense spectrum of 3 obtained at 15 K by excitation with 454.5 nm shows multiplets of narrow lines that reproduce the Nd (3+) absorptions. Sharp and intense luminescence lines are produced instead by excitation with 514.5 nm. Lines at 18681 ( (4)G 7/2), 16692 ( (4)G 5/2), 14489 ( (4)F 9/2), and 13186 cm (-1) ( (4)F 7/2) coincide with the corresponding absorptions. Hypersensitive (4)G 5/2 is split by 42 cm (-1). The most intense multiplet at about 16500 cm (-1) is assigned to the transition from (4)G 5/2 to the Stark levels of the ground manifold (4)I 9/2.     

The Binary Group 4 Azides [PPh4]2[Zr(N3)6] and [PPh4]2[Hf(N3)6]

The binary zirconium and hafnium polyazides [PPh₄]₂[M(N₃)₆] (M=Zr, Hf) were obtained in near quantitative yields from the corresponding metal fluorides MF₄ by fluoride–azide exchange reactions with Me₃SiN₃ in the presence of two equivalents of [PPh₄][N₃]. The novel polyazido compounds were characterized by their vibrational spectra and their X‐ray crystal structures. Both anion structures provide experimental evidence for near‐linear M‐N‐N coordination of metal azides. The species [M(N₃)₄], [M(N₃)₅]^? and [M(N₃)₆]^2? (M=Ti, Zr, Hf) were studied by quantum chemical calculations at the electronic structure density functional theory and MP2 levels.

According to the spectroscopic and crystallographic data, it is concluded that the Cu_I ion is coordinated with one NH₃ group and with the N atoms of the cyanometallate anions. The coordination number of the Cu⁺ is 4 in [CuNH₃]₂[Pt(CN)₆] and 3 in [CuNH₃]₂[Pt(CN)₄]. In the Cu₃[Co(CN)₆] · 2 NH₃ complex two Cu atoms have the coordination number 2, the third Cu atom 4.

Reported are the first heteroatomic deltahedral Zintl ions made of elements differing by more than one group, indium or gallium and bismuth. Nine-atom clusters [In4Bi5]3- are characterized in two different compounds, (Na-crypt)3[In4Bi5] (4, P2(1)/n, a = 23.572(6) A, b = 15.042(4) A, c = 24.071(4) A, beta = 106.00(3) degrees, Z = 4) and (K-crypt)6[In4Bi5][In4Bi5].1.5en.0.5tol (5, P2(1)/c, a = 28.532(2) A, b = 23.707(2) A, c = 28.021(2) A, beta = 93.274(4) degrees, Z = 4). Tetrahedra of [InBi3]2- or [GaBi3]2- are found in (K-crypt)2[InBi3].en (1, P2(1), a = 12.347(4) A, b = 20.884(4) A, c = 12.619(7) A, beta = 119.02(4) degrees, Z = 2) and in the isostructural (Rb-crypt)2[InBi3].en (2, a = 12.403(8) A, b = 20.99(1) A, c = 12.617(9) A, beta = 118.83(4) degrees) and (K-crypt)2[GaBi3].en (3, a = 12.324(5) A, b = 20.890(8) A, c = 12.629(5) A, beta = 118.91(3) degrees). All compounds are crystallized from ethylenediamine/crypt solutions of precursors with nominal composition "A5E2Bi4" where A = Na, K, or Rb and E = Ga or In. The cluster in 4 is a well-ordered monocapped square antiprism with the four indium atoms occupying the five-bonded positions. Compound 5 contains two independent [In4Bi5]3- clusters; one is the same as the cluster in 4, while the other is a tricapped trigonal prism with two elongated prismatic edges. All compounds are EPR-silent and therefore diamagnetic.
