Synthese und Struktur eines Molybdän–Gadolinium-Heterometall-Komplexes Die Struktur von [Li(thf)4]2[Cp2MoSGdBr4(thf)]2

Synthesis and structure of a Molybdenum–Gadolinium Heterometallic Complex. The Structure of [Li(thf)₄]₂[Cp₂MoSGdBr₄(thf)]₂ [Cp₂MoHLi] reacts in THF with S and GdBr₃ to yield the tetranuclear heterobimetallic complex [Li(thf)₄]₂[Cp₂MoSGdBr₄(thf)]₂. The bonding situation and the structure of this compound were characterized by X-ray structure analysis (space group P1 (No. 2), Z = 1, a = 10.845(2) Å, b = 12.166(2) Å, c = 15.881(2) Å, α = 101.74(2)°, β = 97.62(2)°, γ = 103.97(2)°). Each S atom of the central Mo₂S₂-ring is coordinated by a GdBr₄(thf) fragment. Additionally each Mo atom is connected to two Cp ligands. This leads to a tetrahedral coordination of the Mo atoms and a octahedral coordination of the Gd ions.     

Synthese und Kristallstruktur eines μ-Methylen-μ-hydrido-dialanats [R2Al(μ-CH2)(μ-H)AlR2]− (R = CH(SiMe3)2)

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a μ-Methylene-μ-hydrido-dialanate [R₂Al(μ-CH₂)(μ-H)AlR₂]^? (R = CH(SiMe₃)₂) tert-Butyl lithium reacts with the recently synthesized methylene bridged dialuminium compound [(Me₃Si)₂CH]₂Al? CH₂? Al[CH(SiMe₃)₂]₂ 2 in the presence of TMEDA under β-elimination; the thereby formed hydride anion is bound in a chelating manner by both unsaturated aluminium atoms forming a 3c–2e–Al? H? Al bond. The crystal structure of the product shows two independent molecules differing only slightly in bond lengths and angles, but significantly in conformation. While one of the Al₂CH heterocycles deviates little from planarity with a rough C₂ symmetry for the whole anion, the other one is folded with an angle of 21.1° and the arrangement of the substituents is best described by C_s symmetry.

New Phosphido-bridged Multinuclear Complexes of Ag and Zn. The Crystal Structures of [Ag₃(PPh₂)₃(PⁿBu₂^tBu)₃], [Ag₄(PPh₂)₄(PR₃)₄] (PR₃ = PMeⁿPr₂, PⁿPr₃), [Ag₄(PPh₂)₄(PEt₃)₄]_n, [Zn₄(PPh₂)₄Cl₄(PRR′₂)₂] (PRR′₂ = PMeⁿPr₂, PⁿBu₃, PEt₂Ph), [Zn₄(PhPSiMe₃)₄Cl₄(C₄H₈O)₂] and [Zn₄(P^tBu₂)₄Cl₄] AgCl reacts with Ph₂PSiMe₃ in the presence of tertiary Phosphines (PⁿBu₂^tBu, PMeⁿPr₂, PⁿPr₃ and PEt₃) to form the multinuclear complexes [Ag₃(PPh₂)₃(PⁿBu₂^tBu)₃] 1 , [Ag₄(PPh₂)₄(PR₃)₄] (PR₃ = PMeⁿPr₂ 2 , PⁿPr₃ 3 ) and [Ag₄(PPh₂)₄(PEt₃)₄]_n 4 . In analogy to that ZnCl₂ reacts with Ph₂PSiMe₃ and PRR′₂ to form the multinuclear complexes [Zn₄(PPh₂)₄Cl₄(PRR′₂)₂] (PRR′₂ = PMeⁿPr₂ 5 , PⁿBu₃ 6 , PEt₂Ph 7 ). Further it was possible to obtain the compounds [Zn₄(PhPSiMe₃)₄Cl₄(C₄H₈O)₂] 8 and [Zn₄(P^tBu₂)₄Cl₄] 9 by reaction of ZnCl₂ with PhP(SiMe₃)₂ and ^tBu₂PSiMe₃, respectively. The structures were characterized by X-ray single crystal structure analysis. Crystallographic data see “Inhaltsübersicht”.     

Electrodeposition mechanism of Ni?Mo?P alloy in the solution of ammoniac citrate

The induced codeposition mechanism of Mo, P and Ni from the solution of ammoniac citrate was studied by means of steady-state polarization, AC impedance and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). The result of electrochemical measurements proved that [NiCit(NHs)₂]- is the electro-active species of nickel, though nickel ions exist mainly as [NiCit(NH₃)₃]^? in ammoniac citrate. XPS experiments proved the existence of tetravalent molybdenum corresponding to MoO₂ on the surface of mme deposits. The intermediate product, MoO₂, WM probably reduced to Mo in the alloy deposit by atomic hydrogen adsorbed on the induced metal nickel. The reduction of H₂PO^?₂ occurs through two distinctive steps with PH₃ an an intermediate, which subsequently reacts with atomic hydrogen to form P in the alloy deposit. The electrodeposition mechanism was proposed in this paper.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the Spirocycle [(i-Pr)₂P(S)NSiMe₃]₂SnCl₂ The reaction of (i-Pr)₂P(S)N(SiMe₃)₂ ( 1 ) with SnCl₄ in 2:1 ratio yields under elimination of ClSiMe₃ the four-membered spirocycle [(i-Pr)₂P(S)NSiMe₃]₂SnCl₂ ( 2 ). The molecular structure of 2 was investigated by an X-ray structure analysis. Compound 2 crystallises in the monoclinic space group P2₁, Z = 2, a = 938.1(1), b = 1 424.1(2), c = 1 207.2(1) pm, β = 110.59(1)°, R = 2.05% for 4 102 reflexions.

Darstellung von Dithiatetrazocinen und Folgereaktionen

Preparation of Dithiatetrazocine and Secondary Reactions Li[PhCN₂(SiMe₃)₂] ( 1 ) or PhCN₂(SiMe₃)₃ ( 3 ) react with SCl₂ to give in good yields the dithiatetrazocine PhC(NSN)₂CPh ( 2 ). By analogy, p-MeC₆H₄C(NSN)₂CC₆H₄Me-p ( 7 ), p-NO₂C₆H₄C(NSN)₂-CC₆H₄NO₂-p ( 8 ), and p-CF₃C₆H₄C(NSN)₂CC₆H₄CF₃-p ( 9 ) are obtained from the reaction of p-MeC₆H₄CN₂(SiMe₃)₃ ( 4 ), Li[p-NO₂-C₆H₄CN₂(SiMe₃)₂] ( 5 ), und Li[p-CF₃C₆H₄CN₂(SiMe₃)₂] ( 6 ) with SCl₂. Reaction of 2 /LiCl with AgAsF₆ in liquid SO₂ leads to [PhCN₂S₂]⁺[AsF₆]⁻ ( 10 ) and 3[PhCN₂S₂]⁺2[AsF₆]⁻Cl⁻ ( 11 ). The structures of 10 and 11 are confirmed by X-ray analyses.     

Stepwise Degradation of Trifluoromethyl Platinum(II) Compounds

The action of moisture on the homoleptic organoplatinum(II) compound [NBu₄]₂[Pt(CF₃)₄] ( 1 ) gives rise to the carbonyl derivative [NBu₄][Pt(CF₃)₃(CO)] ( 2 ), which is itself moisture stable. However, treatment of compound 2 with HCl(aq) results in the formation of [NBu₄][cis‐Pt(CF₃)₂Cl(CO)] ( 3 ), which undergoes degradation of an additional CF₃ group by further treatment with HCl(aq) in large excess, affording [NBu₄][cis‐Pt(CF₃)Cl₂(CO)] ( 4 ). The carbonyl derivatives 2 – 4 are fairly stable species, in which the CO ligand, however, can be readily extruded by reaction with trimethylamine N‐oxide (ONMe₃). Thus, compound 2 reacts with ONMe₃ in the presence of a number of neutral or anionic ligands affording a series of singly or doubly charged derivatives with the general formulae [NBu₄][Pt(CF₃)₃(L)] [L=CNtBu ( 5 ), PPh₃ ( 6 ), P(o‐tolyl)₃ ( 7 ), tht ( 8 ; tht=tetrahydrothiophene)] and [NBu₄]₂[Pt(CF₃)₃X] [X=Cl ( 9 ), Br ( 10 ), I ( 11 )], respectively. Compound 2 also reacts with ONMe₃ and pyridin‐2‐thiol (C₅H₅NS) giving rise to the five‐membered metallacyclic derivative [NBu₄][Pt(CF₃)₂(CF₂NC₅H₄S‐κC,κS)] ( 12 ), which can be viewed as a difluorocarbene species stabilized by intramolecular base coordination. On the other hand, treatment of compound 3 with ONMe₃ in the presence of C₅H₅NS yields the four‐membered metallacyclic compound [NBu₄][Pt(CF₃)₂(NC₅H₄S‐κN,κS)] ( 13 ). The geometries of the metallacycles in compounds 12 and 13 are compared. In the absence of any additional ligand, compound 3 undergoes dimerization producing the dinuclear species [NBu₄]₂[{Pt(CF₃)₂}₂(μ‐Cl)₂] ( 14 ). Halide abstraction in the latter compound with AgClO₄ in THF yields the solvento compound cis‐[Pt(CF₃)₂(thf)₂] ( 15 ). The highly labile character of the THF ligands in compound 15 makes this species a convenient synthon of the “cis‐Pt(CF₃)₂” unit.     

Synthesis,Characterization and Crystal Structure of Chlorodibenzyltin（Ⅳ） Complex with Dithiomorpholinocarba—mate Ligand

Chlorodibenzyltin (IV) complex with dithiomorpholinocarbamate ligand was synthesized by the reaction of dibenzyltin dichloride with dithiomorpholinocarbamate in 1:1 stoichiometry. The complex was characterized by elementary analysis, UV, BR and ¹H NMR spectra. The crystal structure was determined by X‐ray single crystal diffraction study. The crystallographic data are as follows: triclinic, space group P1 , a = 0.8723 (2) ran, b = 1.099 (2) nm, c = 1.1036 (3) nm, α = 86.498 (4)°, β = 89.697 (5)°, γ = 82.807 (5)°, Z = 2, V = 1.0479 (4) nm³, D_c= 1.580 g/cm^?3, μ = 1.553 mm^?1, F (000) = 500, R₁ = 0.0442, wR₂ = 0.0974. The crystal consists of discrete molecules containing five‐coordinate tin atoms in a distorted tigonal bipyramidal configuration. The molecules are packed in the unit cell in one‐dimensional chain structure through a weak interaction between the chlorine atom and sulfur atom, the sulfur atom and one of the sulfurs of an adjacent molecule.     

Gold(I) and Gold(III) Trifluoromethyl Derivatives

Trifluoromethylation of AuCl₃ by using the Me₃SiCF₃/CsF system in THF and in the presence of [PPh₄]Br proceeds with partial reduction, yielding a mixture of [PPh₄][Au^I(CF₃)₂] ( 1′ ) and [PPh₄][Au^III(CF₃)₄] ( 2′ ) that can be adequately separated. An efficient method for the high‐yield synthesis of 1′ is also described. The molecular geometries of the homoleptic anions [Au^I(CF₃)₂]^? and [Au^III(CF₃)₄]^? in their salts 1′ and [NBu₄][Au^III(CF₃)₄] ( 2 ) have been established by X‐ray diffraction methods. Compound 1′ oxidatively adds halogens, X₂, furnishing [PPh₄][Au^III(CF₃)₂X₂] (X=Cl ( 3 ), Br ( 4 ), I ( 5 )), which are assigned a trans stereochemistry. Attempts to activate C? F bonds in the gold(III) derivative 2′ by reaction with Lewis acids under different conditions either failed or only gave complex mixtures. On the other hand, treatment of the gold(I) derivative 1′ with BF₃?OEt₂ under mild conditions cleanly afforded the carbonyl derivative [Au^I(CF₃)(CO)] ( 6 ), which can be isolated as an extremely moisture‐sensitive light yellow crystalline solid. In the solid state, each linear F₃C‐Au‐CO molecule weakly interacts with three symmetry‐related neighbors yielding an extended 3D network of aurophilic interactions (Au???Au=345.9(1) pm). The high $\tilde \nu $ _CO value (2194 cm^?1 in the solid state and 2180 cm^?1 in CH₂Cl₂ solution) denotes that CO is acting as a mainly σ‐donor ligand and confirms the role of the CF₃ group as an electron‐withdrawing ligand in organometallic chemistry. Compound 6 can be considered as a convenient synthon of the “Au^I(CF₃)” fragment, as it reacts with a number of neutral ligands L, giving rise to the corresponding [Au^I(CF₃)(L)] compounds (L=CNtBu ( 7 ), NCMe ( 8 ), py ( 9 ), tht ( 10 )).     

Untersuchungen zum Zustandsbarogramm und Schmelzdiagramm der Systeme BiI3?HgI2 und BiI3?I2

Investigations on the Barogram and Melting Diagram of the Systems BiI₃? HgI₂ and BiI₃? I₂ The barograms of the systems BiI₃? HgI₂ and BiI₃? I₂ are determined by total pressure measurements in a membrane manometer. The melting diagrams follow from DTA measurements and the barogram. Both systems are eutectic with eutectica at 1.5 mol% BiI₃ and 110°C for BiI₃? I₂ and 9 mol% BiI₃ and 243°C for BiI₃? HgI₂.     

Mehrkernige Molybdän- und Wolframkomplexe mit Schwefel- und Dithiophosphinatoliganden

Polynuclear Molybdenum and Tungsten Complexes with Sulfur and Dithiophosphinato Ligands Reaction of Mo(CO)₆ and disulfane [R₂P(S)]₂S₂ (R: Et, Pr, Bu) gives disulfidobridged cluster chelates [Mo₃S₇(R₂PS₂)₃]⁺ [R₂PS₂]^? 1 , the anions of which can be easily exchanged. From 1 and Ph₃P sulfido-bridged non-electrolytes [Mo₃S₄(R₂PS₂)₄] 2 are obtained, in which two Mo are additionally bridged by one R₂PS₂^?. By treatment of 2 with S₈ or disulfane 1 is regenerated. As in the conversion 1 ? 2 the formal oxidation state of Mo remains unchanged this process can be reduced to the redox reaction S₂^2? ? 1/8 S₈ + S^2?, which takes place under maintenance of the Mo₃ skeleton. Compounds 2 are coordinatively unsaturated and give 1:1 adducts with pyridine. Under modified reaction conditions M(CO)₆ and disulfane form binuclear complexes Mo₂S₄(R₂PS₂)₂ 3 resp. W₂S₄(R₂PS₂)₂ 4 , of which only 3 undergoes further reaction with M(CO)₆ and disulfane leading to 1 . The results of structural and spectroscopic investigations are reported and discussed.     

Aldehyde‐Assisted Hydrogen Transfer during the Formation of Hydride–Iridafurans from Alkynes and Aldehydes

The bis(ethylene) Ir^I complex [TpIr(C₂H₄)₂] ( 1 ; Tp=hydrotris(3,5‐dimethylpyrazolyl)borate) reacts with two equivalents of aromatic or aliphatic aldehydes in the presence of one equivalent of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) with ultimate formation of hydride iridafurans of the formula [TpIr(H){C(R¹)?C(R²)C(R³)O }] (R¹=R²=CO₂Me; R³=alkyl, aryl; 3 ). Several intermediates have been observed in the course of the reaction. It is proposed that the key step of metallacycle formation is a C? C coupling process in the undetected Ir^I species [TpIr{η¹‐O‐R³C(?O)H}(DMAD)] ( A ) to give the trigonal‐bipyramidal 16 e^? Ir^III intermediates [TpIr{C(CO₂Me)?C(CO₂Me)C(R³)(H)O }] ( C ), which have been trapped by NCMe to afford the adducts 11 (R³=Ar). If a second aldehyde acts as the trapping reagent for these species, this ligand acts as a shuttle in transfering a hydrogen atom from the γ‐ to the α‐carbon atom of the iridacycle through the formation of an alkoxide group. Methyl propiolate (MP) can be used instead of DMAD to regioselectively afford the related iridafurans. These reactions have also been studied by DFT calculations.     

Zur Bildung und Struktur der Phosphinophosphiniden-phosphorane tBu2P?PP(Me)tBu2 1, tBu(Me3Si)P?PP(Me)tBu2 2 und tBu2P?PP(Br)tBu2 3

Synthesis and Structure of Phosphinophosphinidene-phosphoranes tBu₂P? P?P(Me)tBu₂ 1, tBu(Me₃Si)P? P?P(Me)tBu₂ 2, and tBu₂P? P?P(Br)tBu₂ 3 A new method for the synthesis of 1 and 2 (Formulae see ?Inhaltsübersicht”?) is reported based on the reaction of 5 with substitution reagents (Me₂SO₄ or CH₃Cl). The results of the X-ray structure determination of 1 and 2 are given and compared with those of 3 . While in 3 one P? P distance corresponds to a double bond and the other P? P distance to a single bond (difference 12.5 pm) the differences of the P? P distances in 1 and 2 are much smaller: 5.28 pm in 1 , 4.68 pm in 2 . Both 1 and 2 crystallize monoclinic in the space group P2₁/n (Z = 4). 2 additionally contains two disordered molecules of the solvent pentane in the unit cell. Parameters of 1 : a = 884.32(8) pm, b = 1 924.67(25) pm, c = 1 277.07(13) pm, β = 100.816(8)°, and of 2 : a = 1 101.93(12) pm, b = 1 712.46(18) pm, c = 1 395.81(12) pm, β = 111.159(7)°, all data collected at 143 K. The skeleton of the three P atoms is bent (PPP angle 100.95° for 1 , 100.29° for 2 and 105.77° for 3 ). Ab initio SCF calculations are used to discuss the bonding situation in the molecular skeleton of the three P atoms of 1 and 3 . The results show a significant contribution of the ionic structure R₂P? P(^?)? P(⁺)(X)R₂. The structure with (partially) charged P atoms is stabilized by bulky polarizable groups R (as tBu) as compared to the fully covalent structure R₂P? P(X)? PR₂.     

Distinct Stepwise Reduction of a Nickel?Nickel‐Bonded Compound Containing an α‐Diimine Ligand: From Perpendicular to Coaxial Structures

A nickel? nickel‐bonded complex, [{Ni(μ‐L^.?)}₂] ( 1 ; L=[(2,6‐iPr₂C₆H₃)NC(Me)]₂), was synthesized from reduction of the LNiBr₂ precursor by sodium metal. Further controllable reduction of 1 with 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 equiv of Na, respectively, afforded the singly, doubly, and triply reduced compounds [Na(DME)₃] ? [{Ni(μ‐L^.?)}₂] ( 2 ; DME=1,2‐dimethoxyethane), [Na(Et₂O)]Na[(L^.?)Ni? NiL^2?] ( 3 ), and [Na(Et₂O)]₂Na[L^2?Ni? NiL^2?] ( 4 ). Here L represents the neutral ligand, L^.? denotes its radical monoanion, and L^2? is the dianion. All of the four compounds feature a short Ni? Ni bond from 2.2957(6) to 2.4649(8) Å. Interestingly, they display two different structures: the perpendicular ( 1 and 2 ) and the coaxial ( 3 and 4 ) structure, in which the metal? metal bond axis is perpendicular to or collinear with the axes of the α‐diimine ligands, respectively. The electronic structures, Ni? Ni bonding nature, and energetic comparisons of the two structure types were investigated by DFT computations.     

The crystal structure of (NH4)2[Mo2(S2)6].8/3H2

The black crystal of (NH₄)[Mo₂(S₂)₆]* 8/3 H₂O belongs to the orthorhombic system, space group D³₂-P22₁2₁, with a = 12.064(6), b = 12.534(4), c = 19.558(9)Å, V =2957(3)ų, Z = 4 and D_c = 2.23g.cm^?3. The intensity data were collected on a Syntex R3 four-circle diffractometer. The structure was solved by Patterson method and direct method, the light atoms (except H atoms) were obtained from ΔF syntheses. The structure was refined by least-squares with anisotropic thermal parameters. The values of R and R_w were 0.092 and 0.072 respectively. The crystal structure contains discrete dimeric cluster [Mo₂(S₂)₆]^2? ions, NH₄⁺ cations and H₂O molecules. There are two crystallographically independent [Mo₂S₂)₆]^2? ions in the crystal, one locates on general position [Figure 1(a)], the other locates on two-fold axis [Figure 1(b)]. It contains one and a half [Mo₂S₂)₆]^2? ions in an asymmetric unit. In [Mo₂S₂)₆]^2? each Mo is coordinated side on by four S₂^2? groups in a distorted dodecahedral arrangement, two of which are bridging and the other two are terminal. The Mo? S bond length is 2.441 Å (mean), and S? S is 2.049 Å (mean). The Mo? Mo distance is 2.784 Å (mean), which is to be regarded as a single bond length. The formal oxidation state of Mo is five, it is probably a mixed valence Mo^IV? Mo^VI, and so shows a remarkable deep colour.

SnCl₂ as a Bridging Ligand in [{(CO)₅M}₂Sn(Cl)₂]^2? (M = Cr, Mo, W) — Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity [{(CO)₅Cr}₂Sn(Cl)₂]^2?, 1 , may be obtained from [(CO)₅Cr]^2? or [(CO)₅CrSnCl₂ · THF] in fair yields. Alternatively, 1 is accessible by the reaction of [Cr₂(CO)₁₀]^2? with SnCl₂. This procedure may be extended to the synthesis of [{(CO)₅M}₂Sn(Cl)₂]^2? (M = Mo, 2 ; M = W, 3 ). The compounds 1–3 are crystallized as their alkalimetal (12-crown-4)₂ or [2,2,2]cryptand salts. X-ray analyses demonstrate bridging SnCl₂-moieties with M? Sn? M-angles close to 130° in each case. The relation of the bonding situation in 1–3 to the ones observed for stannylene or ?inidene”? complexes, respectively, is discussed. The transformation of 1 into the rhombododecahedral (X-ray analysis) Sn? O-cage compound [{(CO)₅CrSn}₆(μ₃-O)₄(μ₃-OH)₄], 4 , demonstrates the reactivity of the dianions 1–3 .     

A dinuclear molybdenum cluster containing i-mnt ligand: synthesis and crystal structure of [Mo_2S_4(i-mnt)_2] (Et_4N)_2

A dinuclear molybdenum(V) cluster compound (Et4N)2[Mo2S4(i-mnt)2] (i-mnt=l,l-dicyanoethylene-2,2-dithiol, (S2C=C(CN)2]2-) has been prepared by the ligand substitution reaction of Mo2S4(iso-pr2dtp)2 (iso-pr2dtp=S2P(OC3H7)2-) with K2(i-mnt) in the presence of Bt4NI. This cluster was characterized by inrrared spectrum, UV-Vis spectrum and single crystal structure analy-sis. The cluster anion [Mo2S4(i-mnt)2]2- possesses C, symmetry with a crystallographic mirror plane through two bridging S atoms. By the S....S supramolecular interactions between two adjacent cluster anions the [Mo2S4(i-mnt)2]2- anions are linked to form infinite chains along the b axis. Crystal data: monoclinic, space group C2/m, a=1.8748(6), b=1.5360(4), c=1.4322(5) nm, ,β=112.02(2)°, V=3.823(4) nm3, Z=4, Dc=1.50 g/cm3. The final R=0.038 and .RW=0.053 for 3015 observed unique reflections.     

On the preparation of binuclear S,S bridged molybdenum(V) complexes crystal and molecular structure of [Mo2S4(Et2dtc)2]

MoO₄^2? is reduced by diethyldithiocarbamate (Et₂dtc^?) on prolonged digestion in aqueous medium whereby the complex [Mo₂^VO₂S₂(Et₂dtc)₂] is formed. The central moiety Mo₂O₂S₂²⁺ has a high formation tendency. When [Mo₂^V(S₂)₆]^2? is refluxed with Et₂dtc^? in ethanol, [Mo₂^VS (Et₂dtc)₂] is formed, the X-ray crystal structure of which has been determined (space group P2₁2₁2₁, a = 10.550(2) Å, b = 13.820(5) Å, c = 14.723(12) Å, d_c = 1.90 g · cm^3?, Z = 4). The Mo? Mo distance of the diamagnetic compound is 2.817(2) Å and the average Mo=S_t distance 2.099(4) Å.     

Phosphinophosphiniden-Phosphorane tBu2P?P = P(R)tBu2 aus Li(THF)2[η2-(tBu2P)2P] und Alkylhalogeniden

The Phosphinophosphinidene-phosphoranes ^tBu₂P? P = P(R)^tBu₂ from Li(THF)₂[η²-(^tBu₂P)₂P] and Alkyl Halides We report the formation of ^tBu₂P? P = P(R)^tBu₂ a and (^tBu₂)₂PR b (with R = Me, Et, ⁿPr, ⁱPr, ⁿBu, PhCH₂, H₂C = CH? CH₂ and CF₃) reactions of Li(THF)₂[η²-(^tBu₂P)₂P] 2 with MeCl, MeI, EtCl, EtBr, ⁿPrCl, ⁿPrBr, ⁱPrCl, ⁿBuBr, PhCH₂Cl, H₂C = CH? CH₂Cl or CF₃Br. In THF solutions the ylidic compounds a predominate, whereas in pentane the corresponding triphosphanes b are preferrably formed. With ClCH₂? CH = CH₂ only b is produced; CF₃Br however yields both ^tBu₂P? P = P(Br)^tBu₂ and ^tBu₂P? P = P(CF₃)^tBu₂, but no b . The ratio of a:b is influenced by the reaction temperature, too. The compounds ^tBu₂P? P = P(Et)^tBu₂ 4a and (^tBu₂P)₂PEt 4 b , e. g., are produced in a ratio of 4:3 at ?70°C in THF, and 1:1 at 20°C; whereas 1:1 is obtained at ?70°C in pentane, and 1:2 at 20°C. Neither ^tBuCl nor H₂C = CHCl react with 2 . The compounds a decompose thermally or under UV irradiation forming ^tBu₂PR and the cyclophosphanes (^tBu₂P)_nP_n.     

Thiochloroanionen von Molybdän(IV). Die Kristallstruktur von (NEt4)3[Mo3(μ3-S)(μ-S2)3Cl6]Cl · CH2Cl2 Kristallstruktur,EPR-Spektrum und magnetische Eigenschaften von (NEt4)2[Mo2(μ-S2)(μ-Cl)2Cl6]

Thiochloro Anions of Molybdenum (IV). Crystal Structure of (NEt₄)₃[Mo₃(μ₃-S)(μ-S₂)₃Cl₆]Cl μ CH₂Cl₂. Crystal Structure, Magnetic Properties, and EPR-Spectrum of (NEt₄)₂ [Mo₂(μ-S₂)(μ-Cl)₂Cl₆] From molybdenum pentachloride and tetraethylammonium hydrogensulfide in CH₂Cl₂ an insoluble product of composition (NEt₄)₂[Mo₂S₃Cl₉] was obtained along with a brown solution, from which (NEt₄)₂[Mo₂(S₂)Cl₈] was crystallized. The insoluble product and NEt₄Cl react in CH₂Cl₂ to yield, among others, (NEt₄)₃[Mo₃(S)(S₂)₃Cl₆]Cl · CH₂Cl₂. The latter crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma, a = 2495.8, b = 1501.2, c = 1295.6 pm, Z = 4. According to the crystal structure determination (3070 observed reflexions, R = 0.049) the [Mo₃(S)(S₂)₃Cl₆]^2? ion consists of an Mo₃ triangle with Mo? Mo bonds, each side of the triangle is bridged by disulfido groups and one sulfur atom is capped over the Mo₃ triangle; the single chloride ion is looseley associated to three S atoms. (NEt₄)₂[Mo₂(S₂)Cl₈] also crystallizes in the space group Pnma, a = 1425.6, b = 1129.9, c = 2004.7 pm, Z = 4; structure determination with 1703 observed reflexions, R = 0.061. In the [Mo₂(S₂)Cl₈]^2? ion the Mo atoms are bridged via one disulfido group and two chlorine atoms. There is a Mo? Mo bond, but according to the magnetic properties and the EPR spectrum each Mo atom still possesses one unpaired electron.
