Tantalum Clusters in Oxidic Matrices — Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Magnetic Properties of Eu1.83Ta15O32

The mixed‐valent oxotantalate Eu_1.83Ta₁₅O₃₂ was prepared from a compressed mixture of Ta₂O₅ and the metals in a sealed Ta ampoule at 1400 °C. The crystal structure was determined by means of single crystal X‐ray diffraction: space group R3¯, a = 777.2(6) pm and c = 3523.5(3) pm, Z = 3, 984 symmetrically independent reflections, 83 variables, R_F = 0.027 for I > 2σ (I). The structure is isotypic to Ba₂Nb₁₅O₃₂. The salient feature is a [Ta(+8/3)₆O₁₂ⁱO₆^a] cluster consisting of an octahedral Ta₆ core bonded to 12 edge‐bridging inner and six outer oxygen atoms. The clusters are arranged to slabs which are sandwiched by layers of [Ta(+5)₃O₁₃] triple octahedra. Additional Ta(+5) and Eu(+2) atoms provide the cohesion of these structural units. Twelve‐fold coordinated Eu(+2) atoms are situated on a triply degenerate position 33 pm displaced from the threefold axis of symmetry. A depletion of the Eu(+2) site from 6 to 5.5 atoms per unit cell reduces the number of electrons available for Ta‐Ta bonding from 15 to 14.67 electrons per cluster. Between 125 and 320 K Eu_1.83Ta₁₅O₃₂ is semi‐conducting with a band gap of 0.23 eV. The course of the magnetization is consistently described with the Brillouin function in terms of a M_mol/(N_Aμ_B) versus B/T plot in the temperature range 5 K — 320 K and at magnetic flux densities 0.1 T — 5 T. At moderate flux densities (< 1 T) the magnetic moment agrees fairly well with the expected value of 7.94 μ_B for free Eu (2+) ions with 4f⁷ configuration in ⁸S_7/2 ground state. Below 5 K, anisotropic magnetization measurements at flux densities B < 1 T point to an onset of an antiferromagnetic ordering of Eu spins within the layers and an incipient ferromagnetic ordering perpendicular to the layers.

Studies on some oxovanadium(IV) complexes of acyl pyrazolone analogues

A series of novel bidentate pyrazolone based Schiff base ligands were synthesized by interaction of 4-benzoyl-3-methyl-1-(4′-methylphenyl)-2-pyrazolin-5-one with various aromatic amines like aniline, o-,m-,p-chloroaniline and o-,m-,p-toluidine in a ethanolic medium. All of these ligands have been characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, IR and ¹H NMR data. The molecular geometries of five of these ligands have been determined by single crystal X-ray study. Crystallographic study reveals that these ligands exist in the amine-one tautomeric form in the solid state. NMR study also suggests the existence of the amine-one form in solution at room temperature. Ab initio calculations for representative ligand HL¹ has been carried out to know the coordination site of the ligand. Novel vanadium Schiff base complexes of these ligands with general formula [OV(L^1–7)₂(H₂O)] have been prepared by interaction of aqueous solution of vanadyl sulfate pentahydrate with DMF solution of the appropriate ligands. The resulting complexes have been characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, vanadium determination, molar conductance and magnetic measurements, thermo gravimetric analysis, infrared and electronic spectral studies. Suitable distorted octahedral structures have been proposed for these complexes.     

Geometries and properties of bimetallic phosphido-bridged complex Cp(CO)2W(μ-PPh2)W(CO)5 and Cp(CO)3W(μ-PPh2)W(CO)5

Complete geometry optimizations were carried out by HF and DFT methods to study the molecular structure of binuclear transition-metal compounds (Cp(CO)₃W(μ-PPh₂)W(CO)₅) (I) and (Cp(CO)₂W(μ-PPh₂)W(CO)₅) (II). A comparison of the experimental data and calculated structural parameters demonstrates that the most accurate geometry parameters are predicted by the MPW1PW91/LANL2DZ among the three DFT methods. Topological properties of molecular charge distributions were analyzed with the theory of atoms in molecules. (3, −1) critical points, namely bond critical point, were found between the two tungsten atoms, and between W1 and C10 in complex II, which confirms the existence of the metal–metal bond and a semi-bridging CO between the two tungsten atoms. The result provided a theoretical guidance of detailed study on the binuclear phosphido-bridged complex containing transition metal–metal bond, which could be useful in the further study of the heterobimetallic phosphido-bridged complexes.     

A Novel Ni-capped Silverton-type Complex: H_4{[Ni(H_2O)_3]_2[CeMo_(12)O_(42)]}·13.5H_2O

1 INTRODUCTION Polyoxometalates are metal-oxygen clusters with almost unrivaled versatility, which results from their enormous structural variety, range of sizes, tunable redox properties and fascinating catalytic activi- ties[1~7]. Therein, an important progress in transition metal oxide cluster chemistry has been the study of polyoxoanion-substituted and supported inorganic or organometallic complexes[8, 9]. However, modified polyoxoanions with divalent first-row transition me- tal as c…

Reactions of neodymium(ii), dysprosium(ii), and thulium(ii) diiodides with cyclopentadiene. Molecular structures of complexes CpTmI2(THF)3 and [NdI2(THF)5]+[NdI4(THF)2]–

The reactions of LnI₂ (Ln = Nd (1) or Dy (2)) with cyclopentadiene (CpH) in THF at 0 °C afforded the CpLnI₂(THF)₃ complexes in 65—67% yields. The reaction of thulium diiodide (3) with an excess of CpH at 60 °C produced CpTmI₂(THF)₃, Cp₂TmI(THF)₂, and TmI₃(THF)₃ in 21, 58, and 63% yields, respectively. The reactions of 1 and 2 with pentamethylcyclopentadiene (Cp*H) in THF were accompanied by disproportionation giving rise to the Cp*₂LnI(THF)₂ and LnI₃(THF) _x complexes. Neodymium triiodide was isolated in the ionic form [NdI₂(THF)₅]⁺[NdI₄(THF)₂]^–. Its structure and the structure of CpTmI₂(THF)₃ were established by X-ray diffraction analysis.     

Darstellung,spektroskopische Charakterisierung und Normalkoordinatenanalyse der bindungsisomeren Tetrachloroiodoselenocyanatoosmate(IV). Kristallstruktur von trans‐(PPh4)2[OsCl4I(NCSe)]

Preparation, Crystal Structure, and Normal Coordinate Analysis of Linkage Isomeric Pentachloroiodoselenocyanatoosmates(IV). Crystal Structure of trans‐(PPh₄)₂[OsCl₄I(NCSe)] By treatment of the solution of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[OsCl₅I] in dichloromethane with suspended Pb(SeCN)₂ the linkage isomers trans‐(n‐Bu₄N)₂[OsCl₄I(NCSe)] ( 1 ) and trans‐(n‐Bu₄N)₂[OsCl₄I(SeCN)] ( 2 ) are formed, which have been separated by ion exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose. The X‐Ray structure determination on a single crystal of trans‐(PPh₄)₂[OsCl₄I(NCSe)] (triclinic, space group P1¯, a = 10.8950(13), b = 11.076(2), c = 20.980(2)Å, α = 96.940(10), β = 98.747(9), γ = 104.419(11)°, Z = 2) reveals, that the nearly linear selenocyanate group in trans position to the iodine atom is coordinated with the Os‐N‐C angle of 171.1°. Based on the molecular parameters of the X‐ray determination ( 1 ) and estimated data ( 2 ) the IR and Raman spectra of both linkage isomers are assigned by normal coordinate analysis. The valence force constants are f_d(OsN) = 1.70 und f_d(OsSe) = 1.15 mdyn/Å.
