Strukturen aus AIB2− und BaAl4−analogen Einheiten. I Die Verbindungen Sr4Pd5P5 und Sr2Pd3P3

Structures with AIB₂? and BaAl₄?type Units. I The Compounds Sr₄Pd₅P₅ and Sr₂Pd₃P₃ Sr₄Pd₅P₅ (Cmcm, a = 4.177(1) Å, b = 31.377(5) Å, c = 8.581(2) Å, Z = 4) und Sr₂ Pd₃P₃(Pmmm, a = 4.199(1) Å, b = 4.212(1) Å, c = 34.227(4) Å, Z = 4) have been prepared by heating the elements. Both structures contain exclusively units characteristic for the AIB_2? and BaAl₄?type. The ratio between isolated P-atoms and P₂?pairs is interpreted with an ionic splitting of the formulas.     

Application of Liquid Crystalline NMR Solvents to a Mixture of Ketones

A series of dilute liquid crystalline solvents are used to study the effect of slight anisotropy caused by partial alignment on chemical shift and residual dipolar coupling (RDC) in small molecules. The residual dipolar couplings between protons in solutes are found to be almost independent of the local environment. It is also found that the chemical shift does not change over the concentration range observed. A linear relationship between residual dipolar coupling and liquid crystal concentration is observed at relatively low concentrations, but is severely violated at high concentrations.

The crystal structure of KAsUO₆·3H₂O was solved at 100 K and 293 K. KAsUO₆·3H₂O at T = 100 K: tetragonal, P4/ncc, a = 7.2037(6) Å, c = 17.811(2) Å; Z = 4, R1 = 0.0263, wR2 = 0.0546, for 618 independent reflections; at T = 293 K: tetragonal, P4/ncc, a = 7.1600(4) Å, c = 17.746(1) Å; Z = 4, R1 = 0.0263, wR2 = 0.0433 for 427 independent reflections. The results of X-ray analysis are compared with our previous data on heat capacity of this compound, and changes that take place in the structure at elevated temperature are considered.

Synthesis and Characterization of the Isocyanide Ligated Centered Zirconium Halide Cluster [(Zr6Be)Cl12(CNXyl)6]

The first isocyanide ligated hexanuclear zirconium halide cluster is reported. The unoxidized [(Zr₆Be)Cl₁₂(CNXyl)₆] (CNXyl = 2,6-dimethylphenyl isocyanide) was obtained from the solid state precursor K₃Zr₆Cl₁₅Be by dissolution in CH₃CN in the presence of CNXyl. The CNXyl ligands occupy all the axial positions on the cluster. The compound was recrystallized from CH₂Cl₂ and Et₂O. [(Zr₆Be)Cl₁₂(CNXyl)₆].2CH₂Cl₂ crystallizes in the space group (#2) with a = 12.092(5) Å, b=12.728(5) Å, c = 14.102(8) Å, = 104.98(4)°, =107.11°, = 100.94°, V = 1919(2) ų, Z = l, R = 11.3% and R _W = 27.0%. For the bound isocyanide ligands, v _CN increases to 2140 cm^–1.     

Li2H4I2O10, das erste Tetrahydrogendimesoperiodat

Li₂H₄I₂O₁₀, the First Tetrahydrogendimesoperiodate Li₂H₄I₂O₁₀ has been obtained as an intermediate during the dehydration of LiH₄IO₆ · H₂O to LiIO₄, for the first time. According to the results of an X-ray structure determination (monoclinic, P2₁/n, a = 533.98(4), b = 471.85(4), c = 1431.48(10) pm, β = 91.614(7)°, Z = 2, 726 diffractometer data, R = 0.056), Li₂H₄I₂O₁₀ contains the previously unknown tetrahydrogendimesoperiodate ion H₄I₂O₁₀^2?, consisting of two edge-shared IO₆ octahedra. They are connected with LiO₆ octahedra via common edges and vertices. The crystals are non-merohedrally twinned along (100).     

DySBr und DySI – Synthese,Kristallstruktur und Magnetismus

DySBr and DySI – Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Magnetism By reaction of Dy₂S₃ with Dy metal and Br₂ (I₂) at 750°C (900°C), single phase crystalline DySBr (DySI) has been synthesized. Crystal structure refinement of DySBr confirms the FeOCl-type structure (R = 0.049; space group Pmmn, Z = 2, lattice parameters (in Å): a = 5.349(2), b = 4.079(2), c = 8.066(2)) which is also ascertained for DySI (R = 0.059; lattice parameters (in Å): a = 5.320(2), b = 4.168(1), c = 9.224(5)). The magnetic susceptibilities (temperature range 3.4 K – 295 K) can be described on the basis of simple models (cubic crystal field, molecular field approximation) above 5 K and 15 K respectively. The deviations at low temperature are assumed to be related essentially to Dy—Dy exchange interactions which are not adequately described with the molecular field approach.     

Synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of oxamido-bridged heterobinuclear Ni(Ⅱ)-Cu(Ⅱ) complexes

The two complexes [Ni(oxen)Cu(L)2](ClO4)2.xH2O (L=2,2'-bipyridyl(bpy), 1,10-phenanthroline(phen)) have been synthesized, where oxen is N,N'-bis(2-aminoethyl)oxamido di-anion.

The structure has been refined to final R of 0.076 and Rw of 0.080, respectively. The complexes have an extended oxamido-bridged structure and consist of Ni(Ⅱ) ion in a square planar environment and Cu(Ⅱ) ion in a distorted octahedral environment.     

Characteristic features of intra- and intermolecular interactions in crystals of pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde isonicotinoylhydrazone and its hydrate

Pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde isonicotinoylhydrazone (1) and its hydrate [1·H₂O] (2) were studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The introduction of the pyrrole substituent into N"-substituted isonicotinic hydrazide (INH) causes the intramolecular redistribution of the electron density compared to those in INHs studied earlier, which increases the basicity of the hydrazone nitrogen atom (N") involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding. This effect has not been observed in the structures of N"-substituted INHs and benzhydrazides studied previously. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds play a decisive role in the formation of the crystal structures of 1 and 2.
