Blue-shifted hydrogen-bonded complexes. II. CH3F(HF)1 n 3 and CH2F2(HF)1 n 3

The equilibrium structures, binding energies, and vibrational spectra of the clusters CH₃F(HF)_{1 n 3} and CH₂F₂(HF)_{1 n 3} have been investigated with the aid of large-scale ab initio calculations performed at the Møller–Plesset second-order level. In all complexes, a strong C–FH–F halogen–hydrogen bond is formed. For the cases n = 2 and n = 3, blue-shifting C–HF–H hydrogen bonds are formed additionally. Blue shifts are, however, encountered for all C–H stretching vibrations of the fluoromethanes in all complexes, whether they take part in a hydrogen bond or not, in particular also for n = 1. For the case n = 3, blue shifts of the ν(C–H) stretching vibrational modes larger than 50 cm⁻¹ are predicted. As with the previously treated case of CHF₃(HF)_{1 n 3} complexes (A. Karpfen, E. S. Kryachko, J. Phys. Chem. A 107 (2003) 9724), the typical blue-shifting properties are to a large degree determined by the presence of a strong C–FH–F halogen–hydrogen bond. Therefore, the term blue-shifted appears more appropriate for this class of complexes. Stretching the C–F bond of a fluoromethane by forming a halogen–hydrogen bond causes a shortening of all C–H bonds. The shortening of the C–H bonds is proportional to the stretching of the C–F bond.     

Preparation of some complexes of the type (C6H5)3P[(CH3)2AsCH2CH(R)CH2As(CH3)2] M(CO)3 (M = Mo or W,R = H or C(CH3)3)

The title compounds, which contain six-membered chelate rings locked in the chair conformation, have been prepared by the reaction of (C₆H₅)₃P with the appropriate tetracarbonyl derivative in refluxing mesitylene.     

Preparation and configurational isomerism of ditertiary stibine sulfides, (C6H5)(CH3)(S)SbCH2Sb(CH3)(C6H5) and [(C6H5)(CH3)(S)Sb]2(CH2)3

Asymmetric ditertiary stibine sulfides (C₆H₅)(CH₃)(S)SbCH₂Sb(CH₃)(C₆H₅) and [(C₆H₅)(CH₃)(S)Sb]₂(CH₂)₃ have been prepared. It was found that they exist as only one of two possible diastereomers in the crystalline state. However, isomerization to the other form takes place in solution, resulting in an equilibrium mixture. A possibility of configurational lability of tertiary stibine sulfide was suggested for the first time.     

Thermal behavior of complexes of general formula (n-CnH2n+1NH2)2CuCl2

The thermal behaviour and some relationships between the physical properties and structure of complexes of general formula (n-C_nH_2n+1NH₂)₂CuCl₂, with n = 10, 12, ? 18, have been investigated by DSC and X-ray powder diffraction techniques. The high enthalpy solid—solid phase transitions observed for the complexes in the temperature range 350–390 K could be associated with the disordering of the hydrocarbon regions of the structure, as already observed for other similar layer compounds.     

Layered structure of the silver coordination polymer with nonrigid aromatic diamine {Ag[CH2(C6H4NH2)2]2(CH3C6H4NH2)}NO3

The complex [Ag(DDM)₂(CH₃C₆H₄NH₂)]NO₃, where DDM is 4,4-diaminodiphenylmethane [CH₂(C₆H₄NH₂)₂], was synthesized and its structure was determined. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 9.543(2) ?, b = 18.056(4) ?, c = 1.901(2) ?, β = 106.94(3)°, V = 1796.8(6) ?³, ρ_calcd = 1.443 g/cm³, Z = 4. The Ag atom (at the inversion center) is coordinated at the vertices of an almost undistorted octahedron by six nitrogen atoms of the primary amino groups from four bridging DDM molecules and two terminal p-toluidine molecules (Ag-N, 2.546(3) ?; NAgN, 89.7–90.3°). Wavelike layers composed of conjugate multiunit metal rings, each containing four Ag⁺ ions and four bridging DDM ligands, are formed in the structure in the [101] direction (a 2D polymer). Uncoordinated NO ₃ ⁻ anions are arranged in the cavities between the layers and link them by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Original Russian Text ? Yu.V. Kokunov, V.V. Kovalev, Yu.E.

Bond energies and thermal decomposition of [Pt(X)(CH3)(P(C2H5)3)2] complexes

The thermal decomposition of the complexes trans-[Pt(X)(CH₃)L₂] (L  P(C₂H₅)₃; X  Cl, Br, I, CN) in decalin at 170 and 200°C affords methane platinum metal and [Pt(X)₂L₂]. The kinetics of the decomposition of the complexes were determined by monitoring the appearance of methane by GLC. The observed first-order rate constant was found to be independent on the nature of the ligand X. The thermal decomposition of the trideuteriomethyl complexes [Pt(X)(CD₃)L₂] (X  I, CN) in decalin-d₁₈ at 170 and 200°C was studied by GLC/MS. The thermolysis affords CD₃H and CD₄ in ratios which are independent of the nature of X and of the temperature used. The mass spectra of the complexes were also examined. A relative scale of platinum-to-methyl bond dissociation energies has been established by measuring the appearance potential of the fragment ion [Pt(X)L₂]⁺ and the ionization energies in the series [Pt(X)(CH₃)L₂]. Ionization potentials and PtCH₃ bond energies show a clear dependence on the nature of X which is not reflected in corresponding changes in the decomposition rates.     

Synthesis and characterization of Na5[Co(CO)3(P{(CH2)nC6H4-P-SO3}3)2], n = 1, 2, 3, and 6. Novel zwitterion

The electron donating water soluble phosphines, P{(CH₂)nC₆H₄-p-SO₃Na}₃,n = 1, 2, 3 and 6, react rapidly with Co₂(CO)₈ under two phase reaction conditions to yield the disproportionation products, [Co(CO)₃(P{(CH₂)nC₆H₄-p-SO₃Na₃}₂] [Co(CO)₄]. Selective precipitation yields the formally zwitterionic complex anions as the sodium salt, [Co(CO)₃(P{(CH₂)nC₆H₄-p-SO₃} ₃)₂]⁵⁻. The anions can be used as precursors to water soluble cobalt hydroformylation catalysts under two phase and supported aqueous phase conditions. The tendency to form alcohol products is low with these complexes. The behavior of the catalysts is consistent with an active species that remains water soluble during the reaction and is not leached into the nonaqueous phase.     

Synthesis and crystal and molecular structure of CdPhen( iso -C4H9OCS2)2 and CdPhen( n -C4H9OCS2)2 mixed-ligand complexes

Mixed-ligand complexes CdPhen(i-BuOCS₂)₂ (I) and CdPhen(n-BuOCS₂)₂ (II) have been synthesized. Their structures were solved using X-ray diffraction data (X8 APEX diffractometer, MoK _α radiation, 1641 and 2497 F _hkl , R = 0.0359 and 0.0389). Crystals I are orthorhombic with unit cell parameters a = 6.5883(3) Å, b = 19.7123(10) Å, c = 20.1936(11) Å, V = 2622.6(2) ų; Z = 4, space group Pbcn; crystals II are monoclinic, a = 6.5845(2) Å, b = 19.1522(6) Å, c = 20.7091(7) Å, β = 97.106(1), V = 2591.5(1) ų, Z = 4, space group C2/c. The structures consist of discrete mononuclear molecules in which the coordination polyhedron of the Cd atom is a distorted N₂S₄ octahedron. Molecular packing and interactions in the structures are discussed. Original Russian Text Copyright ? 2007 by R. F. Klevtsova, T. G. Leonova, L. A. Glinskaya, and S. V.

Synthesis and structural behavior of the P-functional organotin chlorides [Ph2P(CH2)3]2SnCl2, Ph2P(CH2)3SnCl2Me, and Ph2P(CH2)nSnCl3 (n=2, 3)

The P-functional organotin dichloride [Ph₂P(CH₂)₃]₂SnCl₂ (3) is synthesized by reaction of Ph₂P(CH₂)₃MgCl with SnCl₄ independently of the molar ratio of the starting compounds. The corresponding organotin trichlorides Ph₂P(CH₂)_nSnCl₂R (4: n=2, R=Cl; 5: n=3, R=Cl; 6: n=3, R=Me) are formed in a cleavage reaction of Ph₂P(CH₂)_nSnCy₃ (n=2, 3) with SnCl₄ or MeSnCl₃, respectively. The main features of the crystal structures of 3–6 are both intra- and intermolecular PSn coordinations and the existence of intermolecular Sn---ClSn bridges. For further characterization of the title compounds, the adducts 4(Ph₃PO)₂ (7) and 5(Ph₃PO) (8), as well as the P-oxides and P-sulfides of 3–6 (9–15), are synthesized. The results of crystal structure analyses of 7, 11, 12, and 14 are reported. The structures of 9–15 are characterized by intramolecular P=XSn interactions (X=O, S). A first insight into the structural behavior of the compounds 3–15 in solution is discussed on the basis of multinuclear NMR data.     

Internally coordinated organozinc-transition metal compounds. Crystal structure of (CH3)2N(CH2)3ZnW(ν-C5H5)(CO)3

The stabilities of simple and internally coordinated organozinc-transition metal compounds towards disproportionation have been investigated by the microwave titration technique. Simple alkyl- and aryl-derivatives disproportionate to such an extent as to preclude isolation. Internal coordination was found to stabilize the asymmetric compounds, and several derivatives containing the dimethylaminopropyl group were isolated. The crystal structure of one of them, Me₂N(CH₂)₃-ZnW(Cp)(CO)₃, was determined by a single-crystal X-ray study. The crystals are orthorhombic, space group P2₁2₁2₁, with four molecular units in a cell with parameters a 8.406(1), b 12.179(2) and c 16.642(2) Å. The structure was solved by standard Patterson and Fourier techniques. The refinement, with anisotropic temperature factors for the two heavy atoms, converged at R_F = 0.092 (R_wF = 0.089) for 1536 observed reflections with I>2.5σ(I). The molecule consists of a central tungsten atom, surrounded in a tetragonal pyramidal fashion by a cyclopentadienyl group in the apical position and three carbon monoxyde molecules and a zinc atom occupying the basal positions. The zinc atom is three-coordinate, being surrounded by the tungsten atom and the chelating dimethylaminopropyl group; there is, however, a short intermolecular contact between zinc and a carbonyl oxygen atom at 2.61(3) Å.     

Molecular motion and phase transition in perovskite-type (CH3)nNH4−nSnCl3 (n=1–4) studied by proton NMR spin–lattice relaxation

Powder X-ray diffraction, ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectra, and ¹H NMR spin–lattice relaxation times, T₁, were measured for (CH₃)_nNH_4−nSnCl₃ (n=1–4). From the Rietveld analysis, it is shown that all four compounds crystallize into deformed perovskite-type structures at room temperature. The temperature dependence of ¹H T₁ was analyzed in terms of the CH₃ reorientation and other motions of the whole cation. Except for the phase transition in CH₃NH₃SnCl₃, which is from monoclinic to rhombohedral at 331 K, ¹H T₁ was continuously changed at other phase transitions in this compound as well as in the n=2–4 compounds, suggesting that the transitions are not caused by the change of the motional state of the cation but by an instability of the [SnCl₃]_nⁿ⁻ perovskite lattice.     

配合物[Ce(CH2=C(CH3)COO)2(NO3)(Bipy)]的合成及晶体结构

The new complex [Ce(CH₂=C(CH₃)COO)₂(NO₃)(Phen)]₂ was prepared in ethanol-aqueous solution with 8-hydroxyquinoline as the acidity regulator.

The title complex is triclinic, space group P1, a=1.00832(3)nm, b=1.02858(8)nm, c=1.12350(8)nm, α=113.9250(10)°, β=103.8210(10)°, γ=81.4650(10)°, V=1.03252(14)nm³, Z=1, D_c=1.700g·cm^-3, F(000)=522. The coordination number of Ce³⁺ is nine. CCDC: 211278.

1,2-Hydrogen abstraction: the characterization of [Li(CH3)2N(CH2)2N(CH3)2]2 [C12H8]. A dilithium complex obtained by the 1,2 deprotonation of acenaphthylene

The reaction of n-butyllithium chelated to N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) with acenaphthene results in 1,2-hydrogen abstraction to give the dilithio complex of acenaphthylene, [Li(CH₃)₂N(CH₂)₂N(CH₃)₂]₂[C₁₂H₈]. This compound was isolated as a crystalline product and characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. [Li(CH₃)₂N(CH₂)₂N(CH₃)₂]₂[C₁₂H₈] crystallizes with a unit cell of a = 23.164(10), b = 25.609(10) and c = 8.495(6) Å in the orthorhombice space group Fdd2. The calculated density is 1.04 g cm^?3 for 8 molecules per unit cell. The observed density is 1.03(4) g cm^?3. 1412 unique reflections were measured on a full circle X-ray diffractometer. The light atom, acentric structure was solved by the symbolic addition technique and refined by full matrix least squares to R₁ = 0.058 and R₂ = 0.056.The acenaphthylene fragment is nearly planar. The effect of charge transfer is evidenced in the short C(3)C(4) bond distance of 1.30(3) Å and the lengthening of the C(1)C(2) bond length from the localized olefinic bond distance of 1.34 to 1.42(2) Å. The two LiTMEDA fragments are coordinated to both sides of the five membered carbon atom ring of the acenaphthylene group.     

Syntheses and structural studies on two cycloruthenapentadienyl complexes: [(CO)3RuC4(CH2OH)4]Ru(CO)3·H2O and [(CO)3RuC4(CH2CH2OH)2(C2H5)2]Ru(CO)3

Syntheses and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies have been completed on two cycloruthenapentadienyl (CO)₆Ru₂L₂ derivatives, with L = CH₂OHC = CCH₂OH and C₂H₅C=CCH₂CH₂OH respectively. Crystal data are as follows: for [(CO)₃RuC₄(CH₂OH)₄]Ru(CO)₃·H₂O, P2₁/c, a 13.72(1), b 9.501(4), c 14.86(1) Å, β 101.10(6)°, R_w = 0.052 for 1911 reflections; for [(CO)₃RuC₄(CH₂CH₂OH)₂(C₂H₅)₂]Ru(CO)₃, P2₁/c, a 9.191(3), b 16.732(4), c 14.903(3) Å, β 113.61(4)°, R_w = 0.042 for 2865 reflections. Both compounds are built up from binuclear units, each unit being regarded as a Ru(CO)₃ fragment π-bonded to a cycloruthenapentadienyl ring. The molecular parameters are compared with those of known cyclometallapentadienyl complexes of transition metals. The presence of a semi-bridging CO group is discussed.     

Heterobimetallic Mo---Sn complexes. Reactions of [Mo(CO)3(CH3CN)2(Cl)(SnRCl2)] (R = Me, Ph) with 4(4-XC6H4)3 (X = Cl, F, H, Me, MeO)

Three families of heterobimetallic compounds were obtained by reaction of [Mo(CO)₃(CH₃CN)₂(Cl)(SnRCl₂)] (R = Ph, Me) with P(4-XC₆H₄)₃ (X = Cl, F, H, Me, MeO). The type of compound obtained dependent on the solvent and concentration of the starting compound. So, [Mo(CO)₂(CH₃COCH₃)₂(PPh₃)(Cl)(SnRCl₂)]·nCH₃COCH₃ (R = Ph, n = 0.5; R = Me, n = 1) (type I) and [Mo(CO)₃{P(4-XC₆H₄)₃}(μ-Cl)(SnRCl₂)]₂ (R = Ph, X = Cl, F, H, Me, MeO; R = Me, X = Cl, F) (type II) were isolated from acetone solution in ca 0.05 M and 0.1 M concentrations, respectively. However, [Mo(CO)₃(CH₃CN) {P(4-XC₆H₄)₃}(Cl)(SnRCl₂)] (R = Ph, X = H; R = Me, X = Cl, F, H) (type III) were obtained from dichloromethane solution independently of the concentration used. All new complexes showed a seven-coordinate environment at molybdenum, containing Mo---Cl and Mo---Sn bonds. Mössbauer spectra indicated a four-coordination at tin for type III complexes.     

Trimeric, Cyclic Dimethyltin-Containing Tungstophosphate [{(Sn(CH3)2)(Sn(CH3)2O)( A- PW9O34)}3]21?

The trimeric, cyclic dimethyltin-containing tungstophophate [{(Sn(CH₃)₂)(Sn(CH₃)₂O)(A-PW₉O₃₄)}₃]²¹⁻ (1) has been synthesized in aqueous acidic medium and characterized by IR, elemental analysis, electrochemistry, and FT-ICR MS. Single-crystal X-ray analysis was carried out on Cs₁₂Na₉[{(Sn(CH₃)₂)(Sn(CH₃)₂O)(A-PW₉O₃₄)}₃]·20H₂O (1a), which crystallizes in the trigonal system, space group R3, with a = b = 29.7445(7) ?, c = 15.5915(7) ? and Z = 3. Polyanion 1 is composed of three trilacunary (A-PW₉O₃₄) Keggin fragments that are linked on one side via three isolated dimethyltin groups and on the other side by a (Sn₃(CH₃)₆O₃) unit and three cesium ions, resulting in a cyclic assembly with C _3v symmetry. The discrete molecular, hybrid organic–inorganic 1 was synthesized by reaction of (CH₃)₂SnCl₂ with Na₉[A-PW₉O₃₄] in 0.5 M sodium acetate buffer (pH 4.8). Comparison of several characteristics of the cyclic voltammograms of 1 and (A-PW₉O₃₄)⁹⁻, including the potential location of their reduction peaks, the difference in their current intensities and their qualitative relative electron transfer speeds, supports the conclusion that the solid-state structure of 1 is retained in solution. The presence of (PW₉O₃₄)-based species in solutions of 1 was also confirmed by FT-ICR mass spectrometry. Dedicated to Professor Günter Schmid on the occasion of his 70th birthday.

Vibrational characterization of the compound (C2H5NH3)2PdCl4(EAPdC)

The NIR and IR transmission spectra at room temperature of single crystals of (C₂H₅NH₃)₂PdCl₄ (EAPdC) have been measured, as well as unpolarized Raman spectra at room and liquid-nitrogen temperature. These vibration spectra are compared with those of EACuC and EACdC. We conclude that EAPdC belongs to the family of compounds EAMC, where M = Mn, Cu, Cd.
