13C16O2, 13C18O2: Emission spectra in the 4.5-μm region

In this paper the same kind of results are given for ¹³C¹⁶O₂,and ¹³C¹⁸O₂ as for ¹²C¹⁸O₂ [D. Bailly and C. Rossetti, J. Mol. Spectrosc.105, 215–228 (1984)]. Forty seven vibrational bands are analyzed from which spectroscopic constants are computed. These constants reproduce wavenumbers with a RMS of the order of 3 × 10^?5 cm^?1 for the best measurements. For each species, a set of molecular parameters is given for Σ-Σ transitions.     

Synthesis and Structure of New Cobalt–Carbonyl Complexes Containing Tellurium Atoms

Co₂(CO)₈ and Te₂O react to form the well known Co₄(CO)₁₀Te₂, Co₄(CO)₁₁Te₂ complexes and the two new cluster complexes CCo₆(CO)₁₂Te₂(1), and CCo₆(CO)₁₀Te₂(Te₃) (2). The structures of 1 and 2 were determined by X-ray analysis, together with the triphenylphosphine derivative of 1, CCo₆(CO)₁₁(PPh₃)Te₂(3), which was analyzed to clarify the disordered structure of the parent compound. Complex 1 is formed by a prismatic cluster of cobalt atoms with a carbon embedded in the cage; two tellurium atoms cap the triangular faces of the prism and each cobalt atom links two terminal carbonyl groups. The complex 2 has a similar prismatic cage CCo₆; two ₄-Te atoms cap two rectangular faces of the prism, while other two Te atoms bridge two edges of the triangular faces and are linked each other through a third Te atom. Electron counting gives for complex 2 92 electrons: the presence of two long Co–Co distances suggests that the two excess electrons are located on Co–Co antibonding orbitals. Crystal data for 1, space group C2/c, a = 12.845(2) Å, b = 13.449(2) Å, c = 13.246(2) Å, = 91.95(2)°, Z = 4, R = 0.097 for 2555 reflections; for 2, space group Pnna, a = 17.219(5) Å, b= 14.969(6) Å, c = 9.178(4) Å, Z = 4,R = 0.037 for 3103 reflections; for 3, space group P2₁/c, a = 9.288(2) Å, b = 14.920(6) Å, c = 26.300(9) Å, = 99.99(2)°, Z = 4, R = 0.037 for 4300 reflections. The vibrational analysis of the complex 1 was performed and most of the (CO), (₆C–Co), (Co–Co) and (Co–Co) modes were assigned. The (Co–Te) modes were interpreted on the basis of the intermolecular coupling, due to the close contact between neighboring clusters in one distinct direction in the crystal.     

Structural and infrared spectroscopic characterization of Co6C(CO)12S2: a high-nuclearity carbido carbonyl cluster spontaneously formed from dicobalt octacarbonyl and carbon disulphide

Co₆C(CO)₁₂S₂ (I) has been isolated in crystalline form from the mixture of more than a dozen of carbonyl products formed when Co₂(CO)₈ reacts at room temperature with CS₂. Crystals of I are monoclinic with space group Cc, and lattice constants a  16.250(5), b  9.413(4), c  16.036(5) Å, β  116.77(4)°. Structure refinement gave R  0.034 for 1974 reflections. The CCo₆S₂ core of the molecule possesses idealized D_3h geometry. It is composed of a Co₆ trigonal prism, enclosing a C atom in the centre, and the triangular faces are capped symmetrically by the two S atoms. The core contains two sorts od CoCo distances: short one (2.432 Å) along the triangular edges, and long ones (2.669 Å) along the lateral edges. The average CoC distance is 1.94 Å, and the average CoS distance 2.192 Å.¹³CO-enriched samples were prepared photochemically and their IR spectra used in the assignment of the CO stretching frequencies. The CO stretching force constant was calculated to be 1670(2) Nm^-1.By the use of ¹³CS₂, I has also been obtained in a selectively carbido-¹³C-labelled form. The vibrational frequencies of the carbide atom were observed, and that at 819 cm^-1 (¹³C: 790 cm^-1) assigned to the species

, and that at 548 cm^-1 (¹³C: 535.5 cm^-1) to species E′. For the Co-C(carbide) force constant a value of 155 Nm^-1 was calculated. The cobalt—sulphur stretching frequencies were found at 309 cm^-1 (

) and 239 cm^-1 (E′). The CoS stretching force constant, 78 Nm^-1, is considerably lower than that obtained for SCo₃-(CO)₉, viz. 112 Nm^-1.     

Metal-metal and metal-ligand vibrational interaction in compounds of the Fe3EE'(CO)9 (E, E' = S, Se, Te) series and the low-frequency vibrational spectra of Co2FeS(CO)9 and Os3S2(CO)9

The infrared and Raman spectra of the title compounds in the ca. 400-150 cm-1 region are reported. For the first time, detailed assignments are given for all of the features in this region for the first series of compounds. An attempt is made to extend to all of the modes the plastic cluster model of vibrational analysis, which is normally applied only to nu(M-M) vibrations. While mixing occurs between nu(Fe-Fe) and nu(Fe-E), species containing Te posed particular problems; the reasons for this are discussed and give new insights into the plastic cluster model itself.

Stabilization of tetrameric metavanadate ion by tris(1,10-phenanthroline)cobalt(III): Synthesis, spectroscopic and X-ray structural study of [Co(phen)(3)](3)(V(4)O(12))(2)Cl·27H(2)O

A new complex salt of composition [Co(phen)(3)](3)(V(4)O(12))(2)Cl·27H(2)O (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and [V(4)O(12)](4-) = tetrameric dodecaoxotetravanadate ion) was synthesized by reacting appropriate salts in aqueous medium. The complex salt has been characterized by elemental analyses, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), cyclic voltammetry (CV), FT-IR and UV/Vis spectroscopies, solubility product and conductance measurements. Single crystal X-ray structure determination revealed ionic structure consisting of three complex cations, [Co(phen)(3)](3+), two [V(4)O(12)](4-) anions, one chloride and twenty seven lattice waters. Detailed structural and spectroscopic analyses of [Co(phen)(3)](3)(V(4)O(12))(2)Cl·27H(2)O show that the large anion is stabilized by the large cationic metal complex as there is preferred shape compatibility that leads to a large number of lattice stabilizing non-covalent interactions.     

Etude des composés d'addition des acides de LEWIS XXVII. Composés d'addition de la cyclohexanedione-1, 4 avec HgCl2, ZnCl2, et TiCl4

The adducts of cyclohexane-1,4-dione with HgCl₂, ZnCl₂, and TiCl₄ have been prepared, and the IR. absorption spectra of the solid products studied. The lowering of the carbonyl frequency shows that the acceptor is linked by dative bonds to the carbonyl oxygen donors. This result confirms the cyclohexane-1,4-dione · HgCl₂ structure which has been determined by X rays diffraction.
