On Heterocvclic Systems Containing Lead. II. Diphenyl Substituted Thiaplumbocanes, Examples for Expanding Coordination Tetrahedra around Pb^IV 5, 5-Diphenyl-1, 4, 6, 5-oxadithiaplumbocane (PbO8Ph2) and 2, 2-diphenyl-1, 3, 6, 2-trithiaplumbocane (PbS8Ph2) have been synthesized from diphenyl lead diacetate and the respective disodium dithiolates. The mass spectra point to rearrangements induced by reduction of Pb^IV to Pb^II in addition to fragments containing Pb^IV. ¹³C and ²⁰⁷Pb NMR spectra exhibit a weaker 1, 5-transannular interaction S …? Pb than O …? Pb. The crystal structures of two modifications of PbO8Ph2 (orthorhombic and triclinic) have been determined at ? 160°C and refined to R = 0.027 and 0.071. The two modifications contain four 8-membered rings crystallographical independent, three times chair-chair, once boat-chair conformation. Eight independent Pb^IV? S single bond distances range from 248.2(3) to 251.9(6) pm. The tetrahedral C₂PbS₂ configuration is expanded by one 1,5-transannular O …? Pb interaction (285,5(5) to 308(1) pm, monocapped) and further in the triclinic case by one intermolecular S …? Pb interaction (411(1) and 375(1) pm, bicapped). The crystal structure of the orthorhombic modification contains layers (8-membered ring) (phenyl)₂ analogous to the structure of CdI₂. In the triclinic case there are dimers arranged in analogy to the cubic closest packing.     

Metallcarbonyl-Synthesen,XIV. Neuartige Vanadium-, Niob- und Tantal-Komplexe mit Wasserstoff-Brücken

Syntheses of Metal Carbonyls, XIV. Novel Vanadium, Niobium, and Tantalum Complexes Having Hydrido Bridges The novel homo- and heterodinuclear organometallic μ-hydrido compounds 3a – c of vanadium, niobium, and tantalum have been synthesized by light-induced reactions of the hydridoniobium complex (η⁵-C₅H₅)₂NbH₃ ( 1 ) with the half-sandwich complexes (η⁵-C₅H₅)M(CO)₄ ( 2a : M = V; 2b : M = Nb; 2c : M = Ta). These compounds have the general composition L_xM – H – Nb(CO)(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂. The formation of the M – H – Nb moieties is a dark-reaction preceded by two photoreactions that are independent from each other elimination of CO from 2a – c and elimination of H₂ from 1 , with the extruded carbon monoxide being transfered to the (η⁵-C₅H₅)₂NbH fragment; subsequent fixation of the species (η⁵-C₅H₅)₂Nb(CO)H thus generated to the photogragments (η⁵-C₅H₅)M(CO)₃ results in donor stabilization of these latter groups. The structural architecture of the derivatives 3a und b was established by X-Ray diffraction. The hydrogen bridges are to be considered as three-center two-electron functions that are responsible for a serious lengthening of the otherwise by at least 40 pm shorter metal-to-metal distances amounting to 371.3 pm in 3a and 373.3 pm in 3b (mean values).

Trimerization of alkali dicyanamides M[N(CN)2] and formation of tricyanomelaminates M3[C6N9] (M = K, Rb) in the melt: crystal structure determination of three polymorphs of K[N(CN)2], two of Rb[N(CN)2], and one of K3[C6N9] and Rb3[C6N9] from X-ray powder diffractometry

The alkali dicyanamides M[N(CN)2] (M=K, Rb) were synthesized through ion exchange, and the corresponding tricyanomelaminates M3[C6N9] were obtained by heating the respective dicyanamides. The thermal behavior of the dicyanamides and their reaction to form the tricyanomelaminates were investigated by temperature-dependent X-ray powder diffractometry and thermoanalytical measurements. Potassium dicyanamide K[N(CN)2] was found to undergo four phase transitions: At 136 degrees C the low-temperature modification alpha-K[N(CN)2] transforms to beta-K[N(CN)2], and at 187degrees C the latter transforms to the high-temperature modification gamma-K[N(CN)2], which melts at 232 degrees C. Above 310 degrees C the dicyanamide ions [N(CN)2]- trimerize and the resulting tricyanomelaminate K3[C6N9] solidifies. Two modifications of rubidium dicyanamide have been identified: Even at -25 degrees C, the a form slowly transforms to beta-Rb[N(CN)2] within weeks. Rb[N(CN)2] has a melting point of 190 degrees C. Above 260 degrees C the dicyanamide ions [N(CN)2]- of the rubidium salt trimerize in the melt and the tricyanomelaminate Rb3[C6N9] solidifies. The crystal structures of all phases were determined by powder diffraction methods and were refined by the Rietveld method. alpha-K[N(CN)2] (Pbcm, a = 836.52(1), b = 46.90(1), c =7 21.27(1) pm, Z = 4), gamma-K[N(CN)2] (Pnma, a = 855.40(3), b = 387.80(1), 1252.73(4) pm, Z = 4), and Rb[N(CN)2] (C2/c, a = 1381.56(2), b = 1000.02(1), c = 1443.28(2) pm, 116.8963(6) degrees, Z = 16) represent new structure types. The crystal structure of beta-K[N(CN)2] (P2(1/n), a = -726.92(1), b 1596.34(2), c = 387.037(5) pm, 111.8782(6) degrees, Z = 4) is similar but not isotypic to the structure of alpha Na[N(CN)2]. alpha-Rb[N(CN)2] (Pbcm, a = 856.09(1), b = 661.711(7), c = 765.067(9) pm, Z = 4) is isotypic with alpha-K[N(CN)2]. The alkali dicyanamides contain the bent planar anion [N(CN)2]- of approximate symmetry C2, (average bond lengths: C-N(bridge) 133, C-N(term) 113 pm; average angles N-C-N 170 degrees, C-N-C 120 degrees). K3[C6N9] (P2(1/c), a = 373.82(1), b = 1192.48(5), c = 2500.4(1) pm, beta = 101.406(3) degrees, Z = 4) and Rb,[C6N9] (P2(1/c), a = 389.93(2), b = 1226.06(6), c = 2547.5(1) pm, 98.741(5) degrees, Z=4) are isotypic and they contain the planar cyclic anion [C6N9]3-. Although structurally related, Na3[C6N9] is not isotypic with the tricyanomelaminates M3[C6N9] (M = K, Rb).     

Flame atomic absorption spectrometric determination of silver after preconcentration on Amberlite XAD-16 resin from thiocyanate solution

A method of silver preconcentration by using a column containing Amberlite XAD-16 resin and this future determination by a flame AAS after elution is proposed. The effect of the factors such as pH, the nature of complexing agent, sample volume, flow rate, the type and concentration of elution solution on the preconcentration efficiency have been investigated. The influence of some matrix elements on the recovery of silver were also examined. It was found, that the quantitative recovery of thiocyanate complex of silver was obtained from nitric acid solution (pH 2) as 99.20+/-0.07% at the 95% confidence level. A preconcentration factor up to 75 could be obtained. The detection limit of silver was 0.047 mg l(-1). The adsorption of silver onto Amberlite XAD-16 can be formally described by a Langmuir equation with maximum adsorption capacity 4.66 mg g(-1) (0.043 mmol g(-1)). The proposed method was applied to determination of silver in standard alloy with relative error 6.25%.     

From clusters to ionic complexes: structurally characterized thallium titanium double alkoxides

A series of sterically varied titanium alkoxides [[Ti(OR)(4)](n)(), n = 4, OR = OCH(2)CH(3) (OEt); n = 1, OCH(CH(3))(2) (OPr(i)); n = 2, OCH(2)C(CH(3))(3) (ONep); n = 1, OC(6)H(3)(CH(3))(2)-2,6 (DMP)] were reacted with a series of thallium alkoxides [[Tl(OR)](x) (x = 4, OR = OEt, ONep; n = infinity, DMP)]. The resultant products of the [Tl(mu(3)-OEt)](4)-modified [Ti(OR)(4)](n)() (OR = OEt, OPr(i), ONep) were found by X-ray analysis to be Tl(4)Ti(2)(mu-O)(mu(3)-OEt)(8)(OEt)(2) (1), Tl(4)Ti(2)(mu-O)(mu(3)-OPr(i))(5)(mu(3)-OEt)(3)(OEt)(2) (2), and TlTi(2)(mu(3)-OEt)(2)(mu-OEt)(mu-ONep)(2)(ONep)(4) (3), respectively. The reaction of [Tl(mu(3)-OEt)](4), 12HOEt, and 4[Ti(mu-ONep)ONep)(3)](2) to generate 3 in a higher yield resulted in the isolation of TlTi(2)(mu(3)-OEt)(mu(3)-ONep)(mu-OEt)(mu-ONep)(2)(ONep)(4) (4). Compounds 1 and 2 possess an octahedral (Oh) arrangement of two Ti and four Tl metal atoms around a mu-O central oxide atom (the Tl-O distance is too long to be considered a bond). For both compounds, each Ti atom adopts a distorted Oh geometry with one terminal OEt ligand. The Tl atoms are formally 4-coordinated, adopting a distorted pyramidal geometry using four mu(3)-OR (OR = OEt or OPr(i)) ligands to complete their coordination sphere. The Tl atoms reside approximately 1.4 A below the basal plane of oxygens. In contrast to these structures, both 3 and 4 utilize ONep ligands and display reduced oligomerization yielding trinuclear complexes without oxo formation. The two Ti cations are Oh, and the single Tl cation is in a formal distorted pyramidal (PYD) arrangement. If the lone pair of the Tl cations are considered in the geometry, each Tl adopts a square base pyramidal geometry. Two terminal ONep ligands are bound to each Ti with the remainder of the molecule consisting of mu(3)- and mu-ONep ligands. The reaction of [Tl(mu(3)-ONep)](4) with two equivalents of [Ti(mu-ONep)(ONep)(3)](2) also led to the isolation of the homoleptic trinuclear complex TlTi(2)(mu(3)-ONep)(2)(mu-ONep)(3)(ONep)(4) (5) which is analogous in structure to the mixed ligand species of 3 and 4. Each Ti is Oh coordinated with six ONep ligands, and the single Tl is PYD bound by ONep ligands. A further increase in the steric bulk of the pendant ligands, using [Tl(mu-DMP)](infinity) and [Ti(mu-ONep)(ONep)(3)](2), resulted in a further decrease in the nuclearity yielding the dinuclear species TlTi(mu-DMP)(mu-ONep)(DMP)(ONep)(2) (6). For 6, the two metals are bound by a mu-ONep and a mu-DMP ligand. The Tl metal center was solved in a bent geometry while the Ti adopted a distorted trigonal bipyramidal (TBP) geometry using three ONep and two DMP ligands to fill its coordination sphere. Further increasing the steric bulk of the ancillary ligands using Ti(DMP)(4) and [Tl(mu-DMP)](infinity) led to the formation of [Tl(+)][(-)(eta(2-3)-DMP)Ti(DMP)(4)] (7). The Ti metal center is in a TBP geometry, and the "naked" Tl cation resides unencumbered by solvent molecules but was found to have a strong pi-interaction with four DMP ligands of neighboring Ti(DMP)(5)(-) anions. For this novel set of compounds, (205)Tl NMR spectroscopy was used to investigate the solution behavior of these compounds. Multiple (205)Tl resonances were observed for the solution spectra of the crystalline material of 1-6, and a broad singlet was observed for 7. The large number of minor resonances noted for these compounds was attributed to sensitivity of the Tl cation based on small variations due to ligand rearrangement. However, the major resonance noted in the (205)Tl NMR solution spectra of 1-7 are in agreement with their respective solid-state structures.     

Synthesis and structures of cis- and trans-bis(alkyneselenolato)platinum(II) complexes

The reaction of 2 equiv of LiSeCC-n-C(5)H(11) (1) with cis-PtCl(2)(Ph(3)P)(2) (2) gives a mixture of the cis and trans isomers of Pt(Ph(3)P)(2)(SeCC-n-C(5)H(11))(2) (3), which slowly isomerizes in CH(2)Cl(2) to the preferred trans form trans-3. The closely related cis-[Pt(dppf)(2)(SeCC-n-C(5)H(11))(2)] (4) (dppf = bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene) was prepared by a similar metathetical reaction using the platinum chloride complex of the chelating dppf to impose the cis geometry. The structures of the cis and trans complexes have been investigated in solution by heteronuclear NMR ((31)P, (77)Se, and (195)Pt) and, in the cases of trans-3 and 4, characterized in the solid state by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Changing the coordination geometry from cis to trans induces significant changes in the structural and spectroscopic parameters, which do not comply with the previously anticipated donor-acceptor properties of selenolate ligands.
