The reactions of K2ReX6 (X = Br OR I) and Re3X9 (X = Cl,Br OR I) with alkyl and aryl isocyanides

The reactions of alkyl isocyanides (RNC) and aryl isocyanides (ArNC) with the rhenium halides K₂ReX₆ (X = Br or I) and Re₃X₉ (X = Cl, Br or I) have been investigated. When the K₂Rex₆ salts are treated with neat isocyanide at room temperature, or with isocyanide ligands in polar solvents under reflux conditions, then the homoleptic isocyanide cations [Re(CNR)₆]⁺ or [Re(CNAr)₆]⁺, are isolated. Under less forcing conditions, various rhenium(III) and rhenium(I) species, e.g. [Re(CNCMe₃)₅I₂]⁺ and Re(CNAr)₅I, which may be considered as intermediates on the way to the formation of the homoleptic species, can be obtained. The rhenium(I) complexes Re(CNAr)₅I₃, which are believed to contain the coordinated triiodide ligand, have also been isolated and characterized. One route to these complexes is through the reaction of Re(CNAr)₅I with I₂. Reactions of the trinuclear halides Re₃X₉ (X = Cl, Br or I) with alkyl isocyanides at room temperature are found, in all instances, to provide adducts of the type Re₃X₉(CNR)₃. Under reflux conditions, Re₃Cl₉ and Re₃Cl₉(PEtPh₂)₃ react with Me₃CNC to fom products of cluster disruption, viz. [Re(CNCMe₃)₆]⁺ and [Re(CNCMe₃)₄(PEtPh₂)₂]⁺, respectively. The spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of complexes derived in this study are reported. These results are compared with those reported previously by Freni et al.     

A formal CH insertion reaction of an aryl nitrene into an alkyl CH bond. Implications for photoaffinity labelling.

Triplet m-nitrophenyl nitrene reacts with frozen polycrystalline toluene at the benzylic position to give appreciable yields of a formal CH insertion adduct. This reaction does not occur on photolysis of m-nitrophenyl azide in toluene solution.     

Topological characterization of HXO2 (X = Cl, Br, I) isomerization

The isomerization reactions of HOOX --> HOXO --> HXO2 (X = Cl, Br, I) have been studied by using the density functional theory. The breakage and formation of the chemical bonds of the titled reactions have been discussed by the topological analysis method of electronic density. The calculated results show that there is a transitional structure of a three-membered ring on each of the isomerization reaction paths. The "energy transition state (ETS)" and the "structure transition state (STS)" in all of the studied reactions have been found. In all these reactions, the position of the structure transition state and the scope of the structure transition region correlate well with the reaction energy. The STS appears after the ETS in the exothermic reaction but it appears before the ETS in the endothermic reaction. The less reaction energy there is, the wider scope of the structure transition region.     

Vibrational studies of [Ni(II)(DIARS)2X]X, (DIARS=o-C6H4(As(CH3)2)2 and X=Cl, Br, I).

Infrared and laser Raman spectra of [Ni(II)(diars)2X]X, (X=Cl, Br and I) have been used as probes to determine the structures of chelated diarsine molecules. It has been observed that the effects of metal chelation and coordination geometry give rise to frequency shifts in these complexes. The variation in vibrational spectroscopic features indicates reduction in the symmetry of the complexes in the crystalline environment. The effect of halogen on the Ni-halogen stretching frequency of these square pyramidal complexes is not as significant as observed in the case of octahedral complexes.     

Unexpected isomerism in "[Pd(2,9-dimethylphenanthroline)X2]" (X = Cl, Br, I) complexes: a neutral and an ionic form exist

Complexes of composition "[Pd(2,9-dimethylphenanthroline)X(2)]" (X = Cl, Br, I) have long been known and they are used as precursors for the synthesis of other derivatives or as catalysts. In the previous literature, they have invariably been described as neutral square planar complexes, but we have found that a second ionic isomer also exists, having composition [Pd(Neoc)(2)X](2)[Pd(2)X(6)], and that the formation of this isomer occurs under a wider range of conditions than that of the neutral one. Retrospectively, the ionic isomer had surely been obtained in most previous reports even if formation of the neutral one was claimed.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure,and Optical Properties of (CH3NH3)2CoX4 (X = Cl,Br, I,Cl0.5Br0.5, Cl0.5I0.5, Br0.5I0.5)

The reaction of methylammonium halides and cobalt halides yielded the organic‐inorganic hybrid compounds of general formula (CH₃NH₃)₂CoX₄. By varying the different halides, we were able to synthesize the whole row from Cl to I as well as some mixed halides compounds and to determinate the crystal structures. (CH₃NH₃)₂CoX₄ (X = Cl, Br, Cl_0.5Br_0.5, Br_0.5I_0.5) crystallize isotypic to (CH₃NH₃)₂HgCl₄ in space group P2₁/c with Z = 4 [X = Cl: a = 7.6483(9), b = 12.6885(18), c = 10.8752(12) Å, β = 96.639(9)°; X = Cl_0.5Br_0.5: a = 7.8271(9), b = 12.9543(9), c = 11.1007(11) Å, β = 96.320(8)°; X = Br: a = 7.9782(2), b = 13.1673(2), c = 11.2602(2) Å, β = 96.3260(10)° and X = Br_0.5I_0.5: a = 8.2435(12), b = 13.645(2), c = 11.5856(18) Å, β = 95.54(2)°]. The mixed halides show a statistic distribution in both cases. In (CH₃NH₃)₂CoCl₂I₂ an ordered variant is realized representing a new structure type [C2/m, Z = 4, a = 18.808(4), b = 7.3604(7), c = 10.4109(17) Å, β = 120.364(13)°]. (CH₃NH₃)₂CoI₄ crystallizes again isotypic to the respective mercury compound [(CH₃NH₃)₂HgCl₄] [Pbca, Z = 8, a = 10.9265(5), b = 12.1552(5), c = 20.9588(9) Å]. All structures are build up by inorganic tetrahedral [CoX₄]^2– anions and organic (CH₃NH₄)⁺ cations. Additionally the Raman spectra as well as the optical reflectance spectra are discussed.     

Fe+与CH3X（X=Cl,Br,I）反应的理论研究

铁及其复合物催化的C—X键功能化日益引起人们的重视.采用密度泛函理论(DFT),在B3LYP/def2-SVP水平下详细研究了Fe+与CH3X(X=Cl,Br,I)的反应活性和机理.计算结果表明标题反应存在两种反应机制,即插入机制和SN2机制.从机理上来看,在插入机理中,反应都始于Fe+离子从侧面进攻CH3X,生成产物FeX+和CH3;而在SN2机制中,反应则始于Fe+离子从背后进攻CH3X,生成产物3FeCH+和X.从我们的计算可以看出,四重态或六重态下的Fe+离子在C—X键活化中展现了截然不同的催化活性;在所有通道中,都以四重态为主导;SN2机制中相对较高的决速能垒使其丧失了竞争性.再者,计算表明在所有的插入机制中,所有通道都是放热的,而在SN2机制中,仅有X=I时,反应是放热的.此外,计算表明这些反应属于两态反应活性,两种机制中,在反应的入口和出口存在最小能量交叉点.此外,反应途径电子结构追踪分析表明自旋极化对能量影响较大,调控着反应采取的反应通道和主副产物比例.通过本文的理论研究,尤其是详细的电子结构分析,为铁催化剂活化C—X键和C—C耦联反应提供了线索和以铁为基的催化剂设计提供理论依据.     

Kristallstrukturen und Phasentransformationen von Caesiumtrihalogenogermanaten(II) CsGeX3 (X = Cl,Br, I)

Crystal Structures and Phase Transformations of Cesium Trihalogenogermanates CsGeX₃(X = Cl, Br, I) The compounds CsGeX₃ (X ? Cl, Br, I) have been obtained by reactions of Ge(OH)₂ with CsX in aquaeous HX solutions. The thermal behavior has been studied by X-ray diffraction. Raman spectroscopy, and DTA/DSC. The compounds are dimorph. The low temperature modifications L-CsGeX₃ show a rhomboedric deformed perovskite type structure. The high temperature phases H-CsGeX₃ form the cubic perovskite type structure. The reversible phase transitions are interpreted as a result of position changes of the Ge atoms in the H-forms (Order-Disorder transitions). The transition temperatures increase in the sequence CsGeCl₃ (155°C), CsGeBr₃ (238°C), CsGeI₃ (277°C).

Phase transitions in the dimethyl thallium(III) halides, (CH3)2TIX(X = Cl,Br, I)

The dimethyl thallium(III) halides were investigated at low temperature and at high pressure by IR and Raman spectroscopy. These compounds have a tetragonal structure under ambient conditions, in which the methyl groups are disordered. Ordering transitions were observed at low temperature in all three halides. The low-temperature unit cells are monoclinic or triclinic with C_2h or C_i symmetry and Z = 1 and Z = 2 per primitive unit cell for the chloride and for the bromide and iodide, respectively.At high pressure, the iodide and bromide underwent phase transitions at just below 10 kbar to phases similar to those observed at low-temperature. A second transition was observed in both the iodide and bromide at 27 and 45 kbar, respectively, which involved a change in conformation of the (CH₃)₂Tl⁺ ion from linear to bent and a distortion of the (TlX)_nlayers. Significant spectral changes were also observed for the iodide and bromide at close to 65 kbar and 70 kbar, respectively, indicating the presence of another transition involving a change in methyl group orientation.The chloride underwent a transition at about 15 kbar at which the methyl groups become ordered. This phase appears to be related to that observed at low-temperature for the bromide and iodide. Further changes were observed at just below 25 kbar indicating that the (CH₃)₂Tl⁺ ions become bent. There is evidence for another transition above 35 kbar from changes in slope on plots of ν versus p.     

Schwingungs-Raman-Spektren von Hexahalogenokomplexen von OsIV (X = Cl,I) und IrIV (X = Cl,Br) bei 80 K

Vibrational Raman Spectra of Hexahalo Complexes of Os^IV (X = Cl, I) and Ir^IV (X = Cl, Br) at 80 K The Resonance-Raman (RR) spectra of the tetrabutyl- resp. tetraethylammonium salts of [OsCl₆]^2?, [OsI₆]^2?, [IrCl₆]^2?, and [IrBr₆]^2? have been investigated with the excitation-lines of an Ar⁺ and Kr⁺ laser. Devices with a movable sample holder for low-temperature experiments (80 K) are described. The anormal intensities of some of the Ra-active fundamentals are attributed to the RR effect. As a rule the deformation vibration υ₅(T_2g) is RR enhanced if excited within a π—π*(dt_2g)-CT-transition and the stretching vibration υ₂(E_g) is RR-enhanced within a π—σ*(de_g)-CT-transition. The dispersion of the degree of depolarisation of the three Ra-active fundamentals of [IrBr₆]^2? demonstrates, that this rule cannot only be applicated to the symmetrical but also to the antisymmetrical part of the scattering tensor.

Au—Au, Au—X键强烈的电子相关作用使HF方法不适于该体系的研究, BP86和B3LYP两种泛函给出较大的Au—Au和Au—X键长, 而MP2方法和局域的密度泛函方法则给出了合理的结构参数. 局域密度泛函方法计算得到的Au—Au键和 Au—X键振动频率也与实验数据符合较好. 还运用含时密度泛函理论计算了[Au(CH₂)₂PH₂]₂X₂的电子激发能, 对分子在紫外-可见光谱范围内的电子跃迁进行了分析, 考察了卤素配体对激发能的影响, 并结合分子轨道能级的变化对此给予了解释.     

A complete series of copper(II) halide complexes (X = F, Cl, Br, I) with a novel Cu(II)-C(sp3) bond

A complete series of copper(ii) halide complexes [CuX(tptm)](X = F (), Cl (), Br (), I (); tptm = tris(2-pyridylthio)methyl) with a novel Cu(II)-C(sp(3)) bond has been prepared by the reactions of [Cu(tptm)(CH(3)CN)]PF(6)(.PF(6)) with corresponding halide sources of KF or n-Bu(4)NX (X = Cl, Br, I), and the trigonal bipyramidal structures have been confirmed by X-ray crystallography and/or EPR spectroscopy. The iodide complex easily liberates the iodide anion in acetonitrile forming the acetonitrile complex as a result. The EPR spectra of the complexes showed several superhyperfine structures that strongly indicated the presence of spin density on the halide ligands through the Cu-X bond. The results of DFT calculations essentially matched with the X-ray crystallographic and the EPR spectroscopic results. Cyclic voltammetry revealed a quasi-reversible reduction wave for Cu(II)/Cu(I) indicating a trigonal pyramidal coordination for Cu(I) states. A coincidence of the redox potential for all [CuX(tptm)](0/+) processes indicates that the main oxidation site in each complex is the tptm ligand.     

Ionization energies of LinX (n = 2, 3; X = Cl, Br, I) molecules

Molecules of Li(n)X (n = 2, 3; X = Cl, Br, I) were examined with a magnetic sector mass spectrometer by surface ionization using a triple rhenium filament impregnated with fullerene (C60). The ionization energies obtained for Li(2)Cl, Li(2)Br and Li(2)I molecules are 3.8 +/- 0.1, 3.9 +/- 0.1 and 4.0 +/- 0.1 eV, respectively. The first ionization energy of Li(2)Cl is documented, while there are no literature data for the ionization energies of Li(2)Br and Li(2)I. The molecules of Li(3)Cl, Li(3)Br and Li(3)I were detected experimentally for the first time with ionization energies of 4.0 +/- 0.1, 4.1 +/- 0.1 and 4.1 +/- 0.1 eV, respectively. The ionization energies of Li(n)X (n = 2, 3; X = Cl, Br, I) are in correlation with the theoretical prediction of their hyperlithiated configurations.     

Formation and characterization of the uranium methylidene complexes CH2 = UHX (X = F, Cl, and Br)

The reactions between uranium atoms and CH3X (X = F, Cl, and Br) molecules are investigated in a solid argon matrix. The major products formed on ultraviolet irradiation are the CH2=UHX methylidene complexes. DFT calculations predict these triplet ground-state structures to be stable and to have significant agostic interactions. Parallels between the uranium and analogous thorium methylidene complexes are discussed.     

Differences between collisionally activated and electron-transfer dissociations found for CH(2)X(2)(X = Cl, Br, and I) by using alkali-metal targets

High-energy collisionally activated dissociation (HE-CAD) and high-energy electron- transfer dissociation (HE-ETD) on collisions with alkali-metal targets (Cs, K, and Na) were investigated for CH(2)X(2) (+) (X = Cl, Br, and I) ions by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). In the HE-CAD spectra observed, peaks associated with CH(2)X(+) ions formed by a loss of a halogen atom are always predominant regardless of precursor ions and target metals. The observation of the predominant CH(2)X(+) ions is explained by the lowest energy levels of the fragments of CH(2)X(+) + X among the possible fragment energy levels and internal-energy distribution in HE-CAD. In the charge-inversion spectra, relative peak intensities of the negative ions formed by HE-ETD strongly depend on the precursor ions and the target metals. While the CHCl(2) (-) ion was predominant in the spectra of CH(2)Cl(2) (+) regardless of target species, the most intense peaks in those of CH(2)Br(2) (+) and CH(2)I(2) (+) were ascribed to either Br(-) or CH(2)Br(-) and either I(-) or I(2) (-), respectively, depending on the target metals. The dependence of the relative intensities of the fragment ions by HE-ETD on the precursor ions and target species are discussed on the basis of the energy levels of the neutral fragments and the narrow internal-energy distribution resulting from the near-resonant neutralization. It was demonstrated that HE-ETD using the alkali-metal targets provided rich information on the dissociation of the neutral species.     

35Cl,79Br,81Br,and127I NQR spectra of HgHal2·XCH2CH2X complexes,X = OCH3, SCH3, and N(CH3)2

Conclusions From the NQR spectra of the halides HgHal₂ -D (Hal = Cl, Br, or I; D = SCH₃CH₂CH₂SCH₃, N(CH₃)₂ CH₂CH₂N(CH₃)₂, or OCH₃CH₂CH₂OCH₃) it follows that in their complexing ability the sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms can be arranged in the order: S > N > I. A structure with equivalent halogens is realized in the considered complexes.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1895–1897, August, 1973.The authors consider it their duty to thank G.
