Syntheses and X-ray Characterization of Novel [M4(H2O)2(XW9O34)2] n− (M=CuII, X=CuII; and M=FeIII, X=FeIII) Polyoxotungstates

Two novel examples of sandwich type heteropolyanions were synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystal structure and elemental analysis as well as infrared spectroscopy. Na₁₃[H₃Cu₄(H₂O)₂(CuW₉O₃₄)₂]39H₂O (1) and Na₉K[Fe₄(H₂O)₂(FeW₉O₃₄)₂]32H₂O (2) were prepared in aqueous solution by reaction of sodium tungstate with Fe^III and Cu^II cations, respectively. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n (a=13.054(3) Å, b=17.729(4) Å, c=20.998(4) Å, =93.50(3)°), while 2 is triclinic, space group P¯1 (a=12.316(2) Å, b=13.716(3) Å, c=14.925(3) Å, =99.36(3)°, =104.21(3)°, =101.55(3)°). Each anion consists of two [XW₉O₃₄] ^n– moieties (X=Fe^III, n=11 (1) and Cu^II, n=12 (2)) which can be described as -B-isomers of the defect Keggin anion. These units are linked via a belt of four Fe^IIIO₆ or Cu^IIO₆ groups. Two transition metal atoms fill their octahedral coordination sphere with one additional water ligand.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structures,and Properties of (4,4'-Hbipy)2[Sn2(C2O4)3] and (4,4'-Hmbipy)[SnX2] (X = C2O42–, m = 2; X = Cl,m = 0; bipy = bipyridine)

Three new tin coordination compounds (4,4'-Hbipy)₂[Sn₂(C₂O₄)₃] ( 1 ), (4,4'-H₂bipy)[Sn(C₂O₄)₂] ( 2 ), and SnCl₂(4,4'-bipy) ( 3 ) were synthesized under hydro-(solvo-)thermal conditions and their crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 1 exhibits a ionic structure based on discrete [4,4'-Hbipy]⁺ cations and [Sn₂(C₂O₄)₃]^2– anions. These two units are linked via N–H ··· O hydrogen bonds to form a pseudo-one-dimensional zigzag hydrogen-bonded chain. In compound 2 , four-coordinate Sn atoms form monomeric tin dioxalato complexes, which are connected to the doubly protonated [4,4'-H₂bipy]²⁺ cations through N–H ··· O hydrogen bonded to give a one-dimensional zigzag hydrogen-bonded chain. Compound 3 forms a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network, in which ¹_∞[SnCl₂(4,4'-bipy)] linear chains are interconnected to each other by C–H ··· Cl hydrogen bonding. The solid-state UV/Vis/NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopy shows that three compounds are broadband semiconductors. The thermogravimetric analysis evidences the thermal stability of the three compounds up to 175, 201, and 246 °C, respectively.     

Interactions of M(z)-X complexes (M = Cu, Ag, and Au; X = He, Ne, and Ar; and z = ±1)

The coupled cluster singles and doubles method with perturbative treatment of triple excitations is applied to calculate the potentials of M(z)-X complexes (M = Cu, Ag, and Au; X = He, Ne, and Ar; and z = ±1). The bond functions and the basis set superposition errors are considered to obtain accurate interaction energies. The potential energy curves of all complexes are obtained. The vibrational energy levels and the spectroscopic parameters for these complexes are determined. The analytical potential energy functions are also fitted based on the potential energies.     

Vibrational spectra and electronic structure of 1-germatranol, 1,1-quasi-germatrandiole,and 1,1,1-hypogermatrantriole (HO)4−n Ge(OCH2CH2) n NR3−n (R = H,Me; n = 1–3)

IR spectra of 1-germatranol, 1,1-quasi-germatrandiole, 1,1,1-hypogermatrantriole with a general formula (HO)_4?n Ge(OCH₂CH₂) _n NR_3?n (n = 1–3) are obtained. At the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ density functional level the equilibrium structures and vibrational spectra of these compounds along with their hydrogen-bonded dimers are calculated. Based on the calculations the band assignment is performed in the IR spectra of 1-germatranol, 1,1-quasi-germatrandiole, and 1,1,1-hypogermatrantriole. The existence of dimers is manifested in the IR spectra as the absence of bands in the frequency ranges characteristic of the bending vibrations of Ge-OH groups and the presence of bands in the vibrational range of hydrogen-bonded germatranyl groups.     

Theoretical studies of (d-p)ρ bonding,electronic spectra,and reactivities in homo- and heterometallic clusters: [Mo3- n W n X4(H2O)9]4+ ( X = O,S, Se,Te;n= 0-3)

Ab initio calculations with relativistic effective potentials have been carried out on 12 trinuclear molybdenum/tungsten cluster aqua ions [M₃X₄(H₂O)₉]^4– (M₃= Mo₃, W₃ for X = O, S, Se, Te; M₃=Mo₂W, MoW₂ for X = O, S). The electronic structures and bonding pictures of l-12 are discussed in terms of the delocalized and localized molecular orbitals as well as the Mulliken populations, natural populations, and Mayer bond orders. It is shown that the (d-p) bonding in the puckered six-membered ring of the [M₃(µ-X)₃] core arises from a closed continuous ring of three mutually adjacent localized (d-p-d) bonds with strong interactions. It is these three-centered two-electron (d-p-d) bonds that account for the unusual physicochemical properties and reactivities of these cluster compounds. The wavelengths and the assignment of electronic spectra have been given, and the relation between the wavelength shili and the (d-p) bonding is discussed, The reactivities of the ligand substitution reactions and two kinds of addition reactions as weil as some kinetic and redox properties of these compounds are briefly discussed by taking advantage of this Iocalization (d-p-d) a bonding picture.     

Gas phase reactions of Cl2O with X−(D2O)n=0–4 (X = O,OD, O2, DO2, and O3)

The reactions of Cl₂O with the cluster ions X⁻(D₂O)_n=0–4 (X = O, OD, O₂, DO₂, and O₃) were studied in a He buffer gas at temperatures within the range 171–298 K and pressures of 0.27–0.51 Torr, using a flow-tube apparatus. All ions were found to react with Cl₂O at rates slower than predicted by the collision rate and the charge center was transferred from X⁻ to Cl⁻ or ClO⁻. The primary product ions Cl⁻(DOCl) and ClO⁻(DOCl) were observed to react further to produce the ions Cl₃O⁻ and Cl₃O₂⁻. The rate constants for the observed reactions are reported and the role that thermodynamics plays in determining possible reaction channels is discussed.     

Synthese von Cp(CO)2 MnTCNE aus [Cp(CO)2MnXPh]n (X = S,Se, Te; n = 1,2); Festkörperstruktur und Magnetismus

Cp(CO)₂MnTCNE (1) which was first reported by M. Herberhold et al., has been obtained from the reaction of [Cp(CO)₂MnXPh]_n (X = S, n = 1; X = Se, Te, n = 2) with TCNE. The synthesis of the relevant organometallic sulfur, selenium and tellurium derivatives is described. An X-ray diffraction study of the TCNE compound reveals that two Cp(CO)₂MnNCC(CN)C(CN)₂ (1) molecules form centrosymmetric dimers containing a coordinated centrosymmetric (TCNE)₂^x− pair. The bond lenghts, the v(CN) spectra and a solid state magnetism of μ_eff = 1.1 μ_B (293 K) are all consistent with this structural finding.

采用密度泛函理论(DFT)的B3LYP方法, 在6-31G**和Lanl2dz水平上分别对(MN)nHm(M=Ga, In; n=1-4; m=1, 2)进行了优化和振动频率计算. 得到了上述团簇的最稳定构型、H原子的结合能以及它们的能隙. 结果表明, (MN)nH(M=Ga, In; n=1-4)的基态构型均为双重态, (MN)nH2(M=Ga, In; n=1-4)的基态构型均为单重态; 当氢的个数为1时, 加在N原子上比加在M(M=Ga, In)原子上稳定, 如有N3单元, 那么加在N3单元两侧的构型是相同的, 且它是最稳定的; 当氢的个数为2时, 除n=1外, 分别加在两个N原子上的构型是最稳定的, 如有N3单元, 那么分别加在N3单元分离最远的两个N原子的构型是最稳定的. GaNH、(GaN)3H 和InNH的结合能和能隙都很大, 说明这些团簇都有很高的稳定性.     

Nickel(II) hydride and fluoride pincer complexes and their reactivity with Lewis acids BX3·L (X = H, L = thf; X = F, L = Et2O)

Reaction of the pincer hydride complex ((tBu)PCP)Ni(H) [(tBu)PCP = 2,6-C(6)H(3)(CH(2)P(t)Bu(2))(2)] with BH(3)·thf in THF at 190 K generates the corresponding borohydride complex ((tBu)PCP)Ni(BH(4)). The kinetically stable (but thermodynamically unstable) species undergoes reversible borane loss. The related fluoride complex ((tBu)PCP)Ni(F) shows the same reactivity towards BF(3)·Et(2)O, producing ((tBu)PCP)Ni(BF(4)) as the main final product. The processes were followed through multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations, at the M06//6-31+G(d,p) level of theory.     

Trigonal‐Bipyramidal and Square‐Pyramidal Chromium?Manganese Chalcogenide Clusters, [E2CrMn2(CO)n]2− (E=S,Se, Te; n=9, 10): Synthesis,Electrochemistry, UV/Vis Absorption,and Computational Studies

The reactions of E powder (E=S, Se) with a mixture of Cr(CO)₆ and Mn₂(CO)₁₀ in concentrated solutions of KOH/MeOH produced two new mixed Cr? Mn? carbonyl clusters, [E₂CrMn₂(CO)₉]^2? (E=S, 1 ; Se, 2 ). Clusters 1 and 2 were isostructural with one another and each displayed a trigonal‐bipyramidal structure, with the CrMn₂ triangle axially capped by two μ₃‐E atoms. The analogous telluride cluster, [Te₂CrMn₂(CO)₉]^2? ( 3 ), was obtained from the ring‐closure of Te₂Mn₂ ring complex [Te₂Mn₂Cr₂(CO)₁₈]^2? ( 4 ). Upon bubbling with CO, clusters 2 and 3 were readily converted into square‐pyramidal clusters, [E₂CrMn₂(CO)₁₀]^2? (E=Se, 5 ; Te, 6 ), accompanied with the cleavage of one Cr? Mn bond. According to SQUID analysis, cluster 6 was paramagnetic, with S=1 at room temperature; however, the Se analogue ( 5 ) was spectroscopically proposed to be diamagnetic, as verified by TD‐DFT calculations. Cluster 6 could be further carbonylated, with cleavage of the Mn? Mn bond to produce a new arachno‐cluster, [Te₂CrMn₂(CO)₁₁]^2? ( 7 ). The formation and structural isomers, as well as electrochemistry and UV/Vis absorption, of these clusters were also elucidated by DFT calculations.

Generation and characterization of C60(CN)2n−(n=1,2,3)

The mono-anion, di-anion and tri-anion of dicyanodihydrofullerene [C₆₀(CN)₂] have been generated and monitored with a thin-layer spectro-electrochemical cell. The characteristic NIR absorption bands are found to be at 1019, 875 as well as at 744, and 691 nm for C₆₀(CN)₂⁻, C₆₀(CN)₂²⁻ and C₆₀(CN)₂³⁻, respectively. Density functional theory calculations indicate that these anions exhibit no Jahn–Teller effect and possess charge distributions and shape distortions that are different from C₆₀ⁿ⁻(n=1,2,3) upon negative charge addition.

Theoretical study of the electronic structures and spectroscopic properties of [(4′-XC ≡ Ctrpy)PtCl]<Superscript>+</Superscript> (trpy = 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine; X = H,Me and Ph)

The electronic structures and spectroscopic properties of [(4′-XC≡Ctrpy)PtCl]⁺(trpy = 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine; X = H (1), methyl (Me) (2), and phenyl (Ph) (3) were studied by the ab initio method. The structures at the ground and excited state were optimized at the B3LYP and CIS levels, respectively. The absorption and emission spectra in the dichloromethane solution were obtained by using the TD-DFT (B3LYP) method associated with the PCM model. The molecular orbital energy of the HOMOs of 1–3 with the d(Pt), p(Cl), π(trpy), and π(XC≡C) character is sensitive to the substituents on the acetylide ligand, but that of the trpy-based LUMOs with the π*(trpy) character varies slightly. The lowest lying emission at 503 nm for 1 is mainly attributed to the ³ILCT perturbed by the ³MLCT and ³LLCT transitions, but that at 535 nm for 2, and that at 558 nm for 3 are mainly attributed to the ³LLCT perturbed by the ³ILCT and ³MLCT transitions. The different electron-donating ability of H, Me, and Ph is responsible for the differences in emission character. Moreover, the calculation results show that the phosphorescent color can be turned by adjusting the substituents. Both the lowest energy absorption and emission of 1–3 are red-shifted in the order of 1<2<3, consistent with the electron-donating of H<Me<Ph.

X?X Through‐Cage Bonding in Cu,Ni, and Cr Complexes with M3X2 Cores (X=S,As)

Density functional calculations on trinuclear complexes bridged by two sulfur atoms, [(tmeda)₃Cu₃(μ‐S)₂]³⁺, [(tmeda)₃Ni₃(μ‐S)₂]²⁺, and [(tmeda)₃Ni₃(μ‐S₂)]⁴⁺, as well as on the formation of [(tmeda)₃Cu₃(μ‐S)₂]³⁺ from a dinuclear [(tmeda)₂Cu₂(μ‐S₂)]²⁺ complex and a mononuclear [(tmeda)Cu(η²‐S₂)]⁺ fragment, are reported. A qualitative orbital analysis of the M₃X₂ framework bonding is presented for the case in which each metal atom M has a square planar coordination sphere completed by one bidentate or two monodentate ligands (that is, [(L₂M)₃X₂] compounds). It is concluded that a framework electron count (FEC) of 12 corresponds to systems with six M? X bonds but no X? X bond through the cage, while an FEC of 10 favors the formation of an X? X bond. Framework electron counting rules are also presented for related M₃X₂ cores in [(L₅M)₃X₂] complexes, based on a qualitative molecular orbital (MO) analysis supported by DFT calculations on [(OC)₁₅Cr₃(μ‐As₂)].

During attempts to prepare cubane-like clusters from the precursor (Bu₄N)₂[Sn₃S₄(edt)₃] (edt?=?1,2-ethanedithiolate), two new tetranuclear tin(IV) oxysulfide clusters, (Bu₄N)₂ [Sn₄(μ₄-O)S₅(edt)₂Cl₂] (1) and (Bu₄N)₂[Sn₄(μ₄-O)S₅(edt)₂Br₂] (2) were unexpectedly obtained by reaction of (Bu₄N)₂[Sn₃S₄(edt)₃] with SnX₂ (X?=?Cl,?Br). X-ray crystal structure analyses show that the two compounds possess an isostructural anionic cluster with a highly distorted tetrahedral metal skeleton. The two compounds have been characterized spectroscopically.
