Er2S[SiO4]: Ein Erbiumsulfid‐ortho‐Oxosilicat mit ungewöhnlicher Sulfidionen‐Koordination

During the reaction of cadmium sulfide with erbium and sulfur in evacuated silica ampoules pink lath‐shaped crystals of Er₂S[SiO₄] occur as by‐product which were characterized by X‐ray single crystal structure analysis. The title compound crystallizes orthorhombically in the space group Cmce (a = 1070.02(8), b = 1235.48(9), c = 683.64(6) pm) with eight formula units per unit cell. Besides isolated ortho‐oxosilicate units [SiO₄]^4?, the crystal structure contains two crystallographically independent Er³⁺ cations which are both eightfold coordinated by six oxygen and two sulfur atoms. The sulfide anions are surrounded by four erbium cations each in the shape of very distorted tetrahedra. These excentric [SEr₄]¹⁰⁺ tetrahedra build up layers according to by vertex‐ and edge‐connection. They are piled parallel to (010) and separated by the isolated ortho‐oxosilicate tetrahedra.     

Oxygen activation on metallic centers and oxidizing abilities of such oxygen

It was shown that metallcontaining peroxides such as XOOOBu-t [X = (t-BuO)₂Al, (t-BuO)₃Ti] generate molecular oxygen in the electron-excited singlet state (¹O₂). These ozonides and η²-peroxocomplex Ph₃Bi(η²O₂) demonstrate high oxidative activity towards some classes of organic substances under mild conditions (20 °C).

Synthetic Cu0.507(5)Pb8.73(9)Sb8.15(8)I1.6S20.0(2) nanowires

Nanowires of an iodine containing Pb-Sb-sulfosalt have been synthesized by chemical vapor transport. Their structure was studied using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and X-ray powder diffraction. The lattice parameters show values equal to a=4.9801(4) nm, b=0.41132(8) nm (with two-fold superstructure), c=2.1989(1) nm and β=99.918(6)°. These parameters and the results of a multislice simulation are in good agreement with the mineral pillaite, Cu_0.10Pb_9.16Sb_9.84S_22.94Cl_1.06O_0.5 (space group C2/m, a=4.949(1) nm, b=0.41259(8) nm, c=2.1828(4) nm, and β=99.62(3)°). Microprobe and EDX analyses yielded a chemical composition of Cu_0.507(5)Pb_8.73(9)Sb_8.15(8)I_1.6S_20.0(2) which is close to natural pillaite but contains no oxygen and iodine instead of chlorine. The structure of the investigated material is based on chains of M-S polyhedra (M=Pb or Sb) typical for the architecture of sulfosalts implying iodine atoms in trigonal prismatic coordination with Pb atoms from the M-S polyhedra of neighboring chains. The [010] superstructure of the specimen was found to be unstable under electron beam irradiation with a rapid decrease of the b lattice parameter from 0.8 to 0.4 nm within 5 min.     

The Formation of C?C Bonds with the Aid of α-Halogeno Ethers,Sulfides, and Amines

α-Halogeno ethers, sulfides, and amines are reactive compounds which can be used for the formation of new C? C bonds, either as nucleophilic or as electrophilic reagents, or by α-elimination. The use of these compounds in the synthesis of many classes of organic compounds is reviewed.     

Ternäre Thallium-Indium-Sulfide: Eine Zusammenfassung

Ternary Thallium Indium Sulfides: A Summary Combined thermal and X-Ray analyses in the ternary system Thallium—Indium—Sulfur show, that the two binary sections Tl₂S? In₂S₃ and TlS? InS contain ternary compounds with unique crystal structures. The chemical formulas of these ternary solids are TlIn₅S₈, TlIn₃S₅, TlInS₂ and Tl₃InS₃ for the section Tl₂S? In₂S₃ and TlIn₅S₆ as well as Tl₃In₅S₈ (metastable high temperature phase) for the section TlS? InS respectively. With TlIn₅S₇ an additional ternary solid could be detected, which is located outside the two sections. It is derived from the binary mixed valence compound In₆S₇ by complete substitution of In⁺ by Tl⁺. The following ionic formulations make the mixed valence character of the ternary Thallium—Indium-Sulfides reasonable: TlIn₅S₈ = Tl⁺(In³⁺)₅(S^2?)₈, TlIn₃S₅ = Tl⁺ (In³⁺)₃(S^2?)₅, TlInS₂ = Tl⁺In³⁺(S^2?)₂, Tl₃InS₃ = (Tl⁺)₃In³⁺ · (S^2?)₃, TlIn₅S₆ = Tl⁺([In₂]⁴⁺)₂In³⁺ (S^2?)₆, Tl₃In₅S₈ = 4 × [(Tl⁺)_0,75 · (In⁺)_0,25In³⁺(S^2?)₂], TlIn₅S₇ = Tl⁺[In₂]⁴⁺ (In³⁺)₃(S^2?)₇. All compounds contain Tl⁺-ions in a characteristic “lone pair coordination” of S^2? ions. Indium atoms however occur with the oxidation numbers +2 (formal, In₂ dumb bells with covalent In? In bonding) and +3 (with In³⁺ in tetrahedral and octahedral coordination of S^2?). Chemical preparation, crystal chemistry and general properties of the ternary solids are discussed, summarized and compared to each other.     

Selective and efficient oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides with N-bromosuccinimide in the presence of β-cyclodextrin in water

A simple and highly selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) catalyzed by β-cyclodextrin in water has been developed. A series of sulfides were oxidized selectively at room temperature in excellent yields. This reaction proceeds without over-oxidation to sulfones under mild conditions using water as a solvent and has many advantages over the existing methodologies.

Stereoselective Synthesis of (Z)‐ and (E)‐Allyl Aryl Sulfides and Selenides from Baylis?Hillman Acetates under Neutral Conditions Using β‐Cyclodextrin in Water

The first example of the stereoselective synthesis of (Z)‐ and (E)‐allyl aryl sulfides and selenides from Baylis? Hillman acetates under neutral conditions in H₂O by supramolecular catalysis involving β‐cyclodextrin is reported. β‐Cyclodextrin can be recovered and reused. The reaction is very efficient in providing allyl aryl sulfides and selenides in good‐to‐excellent yields with clean reaction profiles under mild reaction conditions.     

New Acyclic Neutral Phosphorus Sulfides and Sulfide Oxides

A great number of binary neutral phosphorus sulfides was discovered and investigated. However all stable representatives of this family of compounds adopt a polycyclic structure in contrast to their lighter homologues, the nitrogen oxides. Acyclic representatives can be stabilized by adduct formation with a nitrogen base. The bis(pyridine) adduct py₂P₂S₅ of the unstable acyclic phosphorus sulfide P₂S₅ is readily obtained stirring P₄S₁₀ in pyridine at ambient temperature. X‐ray diffraction studies on single crystals of py₂P₂S₅ · 0.5 py ( 1b ) show a N₂O₅ like structure for the P₂S₅ framework. The long P–N distances of 1.86 Å indicate only weak coordination of the pyridine molecules to phosphorus. Single crystal X‐ray diffraction studies on py₂P₂S_4.34O_0.66 ( 2 ) reveal the presence of py₂P₂S₄O ( 3 ) together with py₂P₂S₅ in the crystal. Compound 3 contains the mixed phosphorus oxide sulfide molecule P₂S₄O stabilized as bis(pyridine) adduct. It is readily obtained from pyP₂S₅ by oxidation with KMnO₄ in pyridine. The oxygen atom occupies the bridging position between the two phosphorus atoms. Quantum chemical calculations at the MPW1PW91 level of theory as well as DTA/TG thermal analyses confirm the weak coordination of the pyridine molecules in py₂P₂S₅, py₂P₂S₄O, and py₂P₂S₇ to phosphorus.
