Indium(III) iodide forms both 1:1 and 1:2 adducts with triphenylphosphine, depending on the reaction conditions, and especially on the solvent used. The complex InI3•PPh3 involves four-coordination at indium; the structure is trigonal, with a = 15.105(4) Å, c = 16.769(7) Å, V = 3313(2) Å3, Z = 6, and space group [Formula: see text]. Crystals were also obtained in which InI3•PPh3 and InI3(PPh3)2 are present in a 1:1 ratio; these are also trigonal, a = 15.473(4) Å, c = 41.701(7) Å, V = 8646.1(1.8) Å3,Z = 3 + 3 and space group [Formula: see text]. The 1:2 adduct has approximately D3h symmetry in the InI3P2 kernel. The bond distances and angles are discussed; in particular, the In—P bonds are extremely weak in the 1:2 adduct. This compound has been shown by 31P NMR to undergo complete dissociation in solution to InI3•PPh3 and PPh3. The addition of R4NI (R = n-C3H7, n-C4H9) causes quantitative conversion to InI4− and free Ph3P. Similar experiments are reported for the compound InI3(dppe) (dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane), whose structure is an infinite chain of InI3 units linked through In-P-C2H4-P-In coordination. The crystal structure showed that InI3(dppe) cocrystallizes with an equimolar quantity of dppe; these crystals are cubic, a = 41.445(14) Å, b = 15.944(8) Å, c = 16.533(11) Å, p = 102.02(4)°, V = 10 685(9) Å3, Z = 4 + 4, space group C2/c, Solid state and solution phase results are discussed in terms of the coordination chemistry of indium(III). Key words: indium, phosphorus, coordination chemistry, multinuclear NMR, X-ray crystallography.

A photo and thermally stable bis(amidate)–dibenzyl complex of Hf ([DMP(NO)Ph]2Hf(CH2Ph)2(THF) (2a) was formed as a monosolvated THF adduct in near quantitative yield from Hf(CH2Ph)4 and N-2,6-dimethylphenyl(phenyl)amide (1). Isomerization between the THF-bound product and the THF-free product can be observed visually by the conversion from a red-orange product at low temperatures to a pale yellow product at high temperatures. Solid-state crystallographic characterization of the orange product confirmed its constitution as a monosolvated species. Kinetic parameters for the exchange of the THF moiety were determined from variable-temperature NMR experiments. The product of the hydrolysis of the Hf dibenzyl species by water was characterized by X-ray crystallography, and was found to be a rare tetrametallic Hf oxo cluster species (3).Key words: hafnium, protonolysis, amidate, coordination chemistry, organometallic chemistry, exchange processes.

These compounds crystallize in the space group P1̅ (No. 2, Z = 2) (1, 2 and 4) and P 21/c (No. 14, Z = 4) (3), respectively, with the following lattice constants 1: a = 884.9(2), b = 1024.9(2), c = 1173.1(2) pm, α = 105.77(2), β = 99.51(2), γ = 107.93(2)°; 2: a = 965.1(1), b = 1028.6(1), c = 1271.3(2) pm, α = 111.83(2), β = 111.33(2), γ = 90.44(2)°; 3: a = 919.6(2), b = 1890.6(4), c = 978.7(2) pm, β = 113.94(2)°; 4: a = 1286.7(8), b = 1639.3(8), c = 1712.2(9) pm, α = 62.57(6), β = 84.13(5), γ = 68.28(5)°. The compounds consist of Gd3+ ions which are bridged by carboxylate groups either to chains (1 and 2) or to dimers (3 and 4). In addition to the Gd3+ dimers, compound (4) also contains monomeric Gd3+ units. The magnetic behaviour of 2 and 3 was investigated in a temperature range of 1.77 to 300 K. The magnetic data for these compounds indicate weak antiferromagnetic interactions

Reaction of McConville's chelating amido titanium complex [(Ar)NCH2CH2CH2N(Ar)]Ti(CH3)2 (Ar = 2,6-i-Pr2C6H3) with either elemental Se or the tellurium atom source Te=PBu3 resulted in the formation of bis-µ-chalcogenido dimers [(Ar)NCH2CH2CH2N(Ar)]2Ti(µ-E)2 (E = Se, 2; Te, 3) with concommitant loss of EMe2. The dimers 2 and 3 were characterized spectroscopically and via X-ray crystallography. The two compounds are isostructural in the solid state. The tellurido dimer 3 may also be synthesized by reduction of the diamido dichloride [(Ar)NCH2CH2CH2N(Ar)]2TiCl2 with Na–Hg amalgam followed by treatment with Te=PBu3. This dimer is unreactive toward further Te=PBu3 or stannanes such as HSnBu3. Unlike decamethyltitanocene derivatives, the diamido complex is not an effective catalyst precursor for the heterohydrodecoupling of Te=PBu3 and HSnBu3.Key words: diamido titanium complexes, selenides, tellurides.

The title compound was prepared by the reaction of sodium hydrogen selenide with 4-chloropent-3-en-2-one. The compound appears unstable with respect to higher oligomers of the SeC (CH3)CHC(CH3)O ( seacac ) unit. X-ray crystallography reveals the unusual structure in which a central 'complexed' selenium atom is coordinated to the two selenium atoms of the seacac ligands which are in their normal cis conformations. The oxygen atoms are uncoordinated and as far removed from the coordination environment of the central selenium atom as possible. Crystals of Se( seacac )2 are orthorhombic with space group P21212, and cell dimension a 9.761(2), b 14.828(3) and c 4.6447(5)Ǻ.

With the facile displacement being utilized of thf from Yb(pin)2(thf)4 (pin = 2-phenylindol-1-yl, thf = tetrahydrofuran) in toluene solution, the complexes Yb(pin)2(dme)2 (dme = 1,2- dimethoxyethane), Yb(pin)2 (tmen)(tmen = N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethane-1,2-diamine) and Yb(pin)2(diglyme)(thf) (diglyme = bis(2-methoxyethyl) ether) have been prepared from the respective ligands and Yb(pin)2(thf)4. Yb(pin)2 (diglyme) (thf) [monoclinic, space group P 21 /c, a 15.35(1), b 16.179(5), c 14.45(2) Ǻ, β 107.51(8)°, Z 4, R 0.044 for 2956 (I > 3σ(I)) 'observed' reflections] has a monomeric six-coordinate structure with transoid nitrogen donor atoms, N-Yb-N 143.6(4)° and an irregular coordination polyhedron described as either a distorted trigonal prism or a monocapped square pyramid. Attempted crystallization of Yb(pin)2 (thf) by partial desolvation of Yb(pin)2(thf)4 in hot toluene, containing a trace of dme, gave a mixture of red Yb(pin)2(thf) and orange [Yb(pin)2(dme)]2. The latter was independently synthesized by partial desolvation of Yb(pin)2(dme)2 in toluene. An X-ray crystal structure showed [Yb(pin)2(dme)]2 [monoclinic, space group P 21/c, a 11 .614(2), b 15.945(7), c 15.327(4) Ǻ, β 110.19(2)°, Z 2 dimers, R 0.070 for 2314 (I ≥ 3σ(I)) 'observed' reflections] to be a dimer with two bridging pin ligands, coordinated through nitrogen only. There is an approximately square pyramidal five-coordinate ytterbium environment with an apical dme oxygen, and with two bridging nitrogens, a terminal nitrogen, and a dme oxygen in the basal plane.

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.
