Halogen NQR and Crystal Structure of Ammonium Halides (R-NH3)+X- and (X–) (+H3NR´NH3+) (X–). R = (HOCH2)3C, R´ = CH2C(CH3)2CH2; X = I,Br
AbstractThe 127I-NQR of(HOCH2)3CNH3+ I- was determined in the range 77 ≤ T/K ≤ 310. At T = 310 K the NQR signal fades out (Tm = 463 K). The 127I spectrum ( T =77 K.): v1 =29.195 MHz, v2 = 14.597 MHz, η(121l)=0, e QΦzz h-1 (127I) = 97.315 MHz, is in agreement with the crystal structure. The 127I NQR spectrum of 1,3-diammonium-2,2-dimethylpropane diiodide, (H3NCH2C(CH3)2CH2NH3)2+ ·2I- , is a quartet within the whole temperature range investigated, and the lines correspond to two crystallographically independent iodines: Space group P21/c, Z = 4, a = 731.2(3) pm, b = 689.0(3) pm, c = 2255.1(8) pm, β = 104.90(1)°. At 7 = 7 7 K the 127I NQR quartet is (MHz): v1 = 34.145, v2 = 32.805, v3 = 22.113, v4 = 16.787; at 295 K (same order, MHz): 30.559, 29.729, 19.810, 15.651. There are two combinations of the NQR frequencies. Considering the coordination of I-, the hydrogen bonds N -H ··· I, eQΦzzQ h-1 and η, we choose for I(1) v1 and v3, for I(2) v2 and v4. At 77 K eQΦzzQ h-1 (I(1))= 118.86 MHz,η (127I(1)) = 0.498, eQΦzzQ h-1 (I(2)) = 109.75 MHz, η(127I(2)) = 0.135 follow for the two iodine atoms. Both, eQΦzzQ h-1 (I(1)) and e eΦzzQ h-1(I(2)) decrease smoothly with increasing T: η I(2)) increases with increasing T whereas η(127I(1)) is almost constant within 77 ≤ T /K ≤ 4 0 6 . The 79,81Br NQR spectrum of l,3-diamino-2,2-dimethylpropane dihydrobromide is also a quartet, showing two crystallographic inequivalent Br atoms in the unit cell. The frequencies are (T =273 K, MHz): v1 (79Br)= 14.303, v2 (79Br)= 12.884, (81Br)= 11.951, v2(81Br) = 10.781; space group C2/c, Z = 8 , a = 2136.4(6) pm, b = 854.6(3) pm, c = 1125.8(3) pm, β = 93.23(1)°. Crystal structures and NQR results are discussed.
