Synthese und Struktur der Kronenetherkomplexe von Kaliumhexachlorodipalladat(II) und -diplatinat(II)

Synthesis and Structure of Crown Ether Complexes of Potassium Hexachlorodipalladate(II) and -diplatinate(II) K₂MCl₄] (M ? Pd, Pt) reacts with an excess of crown ether 18-crown-6 in water to give the crown ether complexes of potassium hexachlorodipalladate(II) and -diplatinate(II) K(18-cr-6)]₂M₂Cl₆] (M ? Pd, 1 ; M ? Pt, 3 ), respectively, and in methylene chloride to give those of potassium tetrachloropalladate(II) and -platinate(II) K(18-cr-6)]₂MCl₄] ( 1 ) (M ? Pd, 2 ; M ? Pt, 4 ), respectively. 1 - 4 are characterized by microanalysis, NMR (¹H, ¹³C), and vibrational spectroscopy. The X-ray structure analyses of the isotypic complexes 1 (P2₁/c; a = 10,9678(8), b = 8,2991(7), c = 22,469(2) Å, β = 98,523(5)°; Z = 2) and 3 (P2₁/c; a = 10,934(3), b = 8.376(3), c = 22,410(5) Å, β = 98,77(3)°; Z = 2) reveal M₂Cl₆]^2? anions of nearly D_2h symmetry and K(18-cr-6)]⁺ cations, in which the distance of K⁺ to the mean plane of the crown ether defined by its six oxygen atoms amounts to 0,830(4) Å in 1 and 0,821(2) Å in 3 , respectively. There are tight contacts between cations and anions (d(K-Cl): 3,341(2)/3,260(2) Å ( 1 ); 3,348(4)/3,259(4) Å ( 3 )).
