Abstract: | Tetraphenyl Imidodiphosphate as Ligand in Fluoro Complexes. 3. Fluoro Complexes of Niobium, Tantalum, and Antimony Tetraphenyl imidodiphosphate forms with NbF5, TaF5, and SbF5 the addition complexes MF5 · LH and (MF5)2(μ-LH). The imidodiphosphate acts in the latter as bidentately bridging ligand. Furtheron, it reacts with NbF5 and TaF5 by replacing fluoride forming tetrafloro and trifluoro complexes: MF4(μ-L)]2 and MF3(η2-L)(OPh) or μ-OMF3(η2-L)]2, resp., (M ? Nb, Ta). SbF5 does not form substitution complexes. The constitution and conformation of the complexes have been concluded from n.m.r. spectroscopic data. |
