1,2-Bis-triphenylphosphoranylidenamino-äthan als zweizähniger Ligand in Übergangsmetallkomplexen

1,2-Bis-(triphenylphosphorane-ylidene-amino)ethane as a Bidentate Ligand in Transition Metal Complexes The reactions of Ph₃P?N? C₂H₄? N?PPh₃ with transition metal halogenides MX₂ give according to eq. (1) novel bisiminophosphorane complexes of the type M(Ph₃PNC₂H₄ NPPh₃)X₂ (M ? Co, X ? Cl 1 a , Br 1 b , J 1 c ; M ? Ni, X ? Cl 2 a , Br 2 b , J 2 c , M ? Hg, X ? Cl 3 , M ? Cd, X ? Cl 4 ). The preparation, properties, magnetic moments, and structure of the new complexes are reported     

Die Kristallstrukturen von KNdTe4, RbPrTe4 und RbNdTe4 — Untersuchungen zur thermischen Stabilität von KNdTe4 sowie Bemerkungen zu einigen anderen Vertretern der Zusammensetzung ALnTe4 (A = K,Rb, Cs und Ln = Seltenerd‐Metall)

Crystal Structures of KNdTe₄, RbPrTe₄, and RbNdTe₄ — Investigations concerning the Thermal Stability of KNdTe₄ as well as some Remarks concerning Additional Representatives of the Composition ALnTe₄ (A = K, Rb, Cs and Ln = Rare Earth Metal) Of the compounds ALnQ₄ (A = Na, K, Rb, Cs; Ln = Lanthanoid; Q = S, Se and Te) the crystal structures of the three new tellurides KNdTe₄, RbPrTe₄ and RbNdTe₄ were determined by X‐ray single‐crystal structure analysis and of the three additional new ones KCeTe₄, KPrTe₄ and CsNdTe₄ by X‐ray powder diffraction experiments. All six new compounds are isotypic with KCeSe₄. Characteristic for the crystal structure of the compounds mentioned above are layers built from (Q₂)^2— dumbbells in form of 4.3².4.3 nets with embedded cations A⁺ and Ln³⁺ between them, which are coordinated eightfold in form of square‐shaped antiprisms by Q ions. The distances Te‐Te within the dumbbells were found to be 277.8(2) pm for all investigated tellurides. By combination of X‐ray diffraction and DTA measurements it was shown that the compound KNdTe₄ is metastable at ambient temperature with a limited existence range between the temperatures 260 and 498 °C.
