3SbF3•4SbF5 has been prepared from the reaction of SbF3 with a large excess of SbF5 and from the reaction of WF5 with SbF5 in Genetron 113. An X-ray structure determination has shown that the compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a = 8.547(10), b = 13.521(8), c = 19.551(12) Å, β = 100.3(1)°,Z = 4with the final residual indices of R = 0.0486 and Rw = 0.0526 for 4274 unique reflections. If only Sb—F distances of less than 2.1 Å are considered the structure can be viewed in terms of the arrangement (SbF2+)(SbF2+)(SbF6−)4. A Raman spectrum from single crystals of the compound is reported. Keywords: X-ray, structure, antimony, fluoride, Raman.

The title compound has been prepared in two different ways: First, by boiling single crystals of [(C2H5)4N]HgCl3 in a mixture of n-hexane/n-octane [4:1] at T = 350 K, and second, in a synthesis from stoichiometric quantities of the components. X-ray structure analysis gave the stoichiometry [(C2H5)4N]2Hg3Cl8, monoclinic, space group P21, a = 7.538(3), b = 19.909(6), c = 10.274(3) Å, β = 95.13(1)°, V = 1535.7(9) A3, Z = 2. The basic [Hg3Cl8]2--units form broken zig-zag chains along [100]. The Hg–Cl distances within the [Hg3Cl8]2- clusters range from 2.315(3) to 2.755(4) Å. This is a new coordination type for halomercurates.

Transparent and colorless single crystals of Yb26B12O57 were obtained by reacting Yb2O3 and B powder at 1000 °C in the presence of a KCl flux for 24 h in silica-jacketed Nb ampoules and subsequent removal of the flux by washing with water. Yb26B12O57 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/m (no. 12, Z = 1) with the lattice parameters a = 2454:1(3), b = 357:78(4), c = 1426:7(2) pm and β = 115:111(6)°, and its structure differs slightly from that of a known compound with the same stoichiometry. Raman spectra of single crystals of the title compound were recorded and compared to those of known borate compounds

AbstractThe new compounds LiK[C(CN)3]2 and Li[C(CN)3]·½ (H3C)2CO were synthesized and their crystal structures were determined. Li[C(CN)3]·½ (H3C)2CO crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Ima2 (no. 46) with the cell parameters a=794.97(14), b=1165.1(2) and c=1485.4(3) pm, while LiK[C(CN)3]2 adopts the monoclinic space group P21/c (no. 14) with the cell parameters a=1265.7(2), b=1068.0(2) and c=778.36(12) pm and the angle β=95.775(7)°. Single crystals of K[C(CN)3] were also acquired, and the crystal structure was refined more precisely than before corroborating earlier results.

Single crystals of Ca11N6[CN2]2 (dark red needles, tetragonal, P42/mnm (no. 136), a = 1456.22(5), and c = 361.86(2) pm, Z = 2), Ca4N2[CN2] (transparent yellow needles, orthorhombic, Pnma (no. 62), a = 1146.51(11), b = 358.33(4), and c = 1385.77(13) pm, Z = 4) and Ca[CN2] (transparent, colorless, triangular plates, rhombohedral, R3̅m (no. 166), a = 369.00(3), and c = 1477.5(3) pm, Z = 3) were obtained by the reaction of Na2[CN2], CaCl2 and Ca3N2 (if demanded by stoichiometry) in arc-welded Ta ampoules at temperatures between 1200 - 1400 K. Their crystal structures were re-determined by means of single crystal X-ray structure analyses. Additionally, the Raman spectra were recorded on these same single crystals, whereas the IR spectra were obtained with the KBr pellet technique. The title compounds exhibit characteristic features for carbodiimide units with D∞h symmetry (d(C-N) = 121.7 - 123.8 pm and ∡ (N-C-N) = 180°). The vibrational frequencies of these units are in the expected range (Ca11N6[CN2]2: νs = 1230, νs = 2008; δ = 673/645/624 cm−1; Ca4N2[CN2]: νs = 1230, νs = 1986; δ = 672/647 cm−1; Ca[CN2]: νs = 1274, νs = 2031, δ = 668 cm−1). The structural results are more precise than the previously reported data, and with the newly attained Raman spectrum of Ca11N6[CN2]2 we correct data reported earlier.

Abstract Benzo-18 -crown-6 -Acetonitrile (1/2), Crystal Structure Single crystals of the title complex resulted fortuitously during an attempt to co-crystallise MeN(SO2Me)2 with benzo-18-crown-6 from an MeCN solution at -30 °C. The crystal structure has been determined via data collection at -100 °C (monoclinic, space group P21/n, Z = 4). The nitrile molecules are located with their me­ thyl groups above and below the plane of the 18-membered crown ring, the Me hydrogen atoms being rotationally disordered about the MeCN axes; C(methyl)···O(crown) distances range from 309.4(3) to 384.9(3) pm.

The crystal structure of Te(N3)3SbF6 containing the first binary tellurium–nitrogen cation, triazidotellurium(IV) (Te(N3)3+), has been determined by X-ray crystallography. Single crystals of Te(N3)3SbF6 are monoclinic, space group P21/c with a = 9.201(6), b = 8.445(4), c = 13.582(7) Å, β = 100.36(5)°, Z = 4, final R1 = 0.036 for 1286 observed reflections. The structure consists of discrete Te(N3)3+ cations and distorted octahedral SbF6− anions, with some cation–anion interactions. The average Te—Nα—Nβ—Nγ bond distances in Te(N3)3+ are Te—Nα, 1.994(7); Nα—Nβ, 1.237(11); and Nβ—Nγ, 1.116(12) Å. The average bond angles about the Te, Nα, and Nβ atoms are 94.1(3)°, 116.5(6)°, and 173.7(9)°. Structural correlations with other TeX3+ species have yielded an estimate of the electronegativity of the N3− group to be 3.1 ± 0.1. Keywords: tetratellurium (2+) cation, triazidotellurium(IV) cation, electronegativity, azide.

[WCl4(NCl)]2 reacts in acetonitrile with the trimethylsilyl compounds Me3SiSR (R = Me, Ph), and Me3SiESiMe3 (E = S, Se), with substitution of the chlorine atom of the N-chloronitreno group W=N–Cl and formation of CH3CN–WCl4(NSR) and CH3CN–WCl4(NEN)WCl4–NCCH3, respectively. Excess Me3SiBr reacts with CH3CN–WCl4(NSMe) to afford CH3CN–WBr4(NSMe). [CH3CN–WNCl3]4 was obtained from CH3CN–WCl4(NCl) and N(SiMe3)3. The products were characterized by their IR spectra. Two X-ray crystal structure determinations were also carried out. CH3CN—WCl4(NSMe) forms twinned crystals, and only non-overlapping reflexions of one of the twin individuals were used for the structure determination (846 unique values, R = 0.055). Crystal data: a = 592.4(2), b = 758.8(2), c = 1203.7(8) pm, β = 95.06(4)°, monoclinic, space group P21/m, Z = 2. The compound is a monomer in which the acetonitrile ligand is situated in the trans position to the W≡N–S̱̅–Me group. The bond lengths (W≡N 174(2), N–S 161(2) pm) and bond angles (WNS 176(1), NSC 102.1(9)°) are in agreement with the proposed formula. Crystal data for [CH3CN–WNCl3]4: a = 1009.5(2), b = 1274.5(2), c = 1287.9(2) pm, β = 108.17(1)°, monoclinic, space group P21/c, Z = 2 (2113 unique reflexions, R = 0.057). The compound forms tetrameric units, in which the W atoms form a square and are linked with one another via N atoms at alternating distances (W=N 171(2), W–N 207(2), W–NCMe 238(2) pm).

Blue moisture sensitive single crystals of [YbCl2(THF)5]+[WOCl4(THF)]- were obtained as a by-product from the reaction of the ytterbium trisamide Yb[N(SiMe3)2]3 with tungsten hexachloride in THF solution. The crystals were suitable for an X-ray crystal structure determination. Space group P2/c, Z = 2, lattice dimensions at -80 °C: a = 1192.5(1), b = 1117.1(1), c = 1349.9(1) pm, ß = 104.115(7)°, R = 0.0424. The structure consists of cations [YbCl2(THF)5]+ in which the ytterbium atom is coordinated in a pentagonalbipyramidal way by the chlorine atoms in the axial positions and by the oxygen atoms of the THF molecules in equatorial positions. Counterions are the well-known [WOCl4(THF)]- ions.
