Mixed sulfido/oxidomolybdate anions [MoOxS4−x]2− (x = 1, 2, 3) have been prepared by passing H2S gas through a solution of oxidomolybdates. The alkali salts of K+, Rb+, Cs+, and NH+4 precipitate as crystalline salts from these solutions depending on the pH, the polarity of the solvent, the educt concentrations and the temperature. Their structures have been determined by means of X-ray single-crystal diffraction data. All trisulfidomolybdates A2[MoOS3] (A = NH4/K/Rb/Cs) are isotypic with the tetrasulfido salts, exhibiting the β -K2[SO4] type (orthorhombic, space group Pnma, Z = 4; for A = Rb: a = 940.62(4), b = 713.32(4), c = 1164.56(5) pm, R1 = 0.0281). In contrast, the disulfidomolybdates exhibit a rich crystal chemistry, forming three different structure types depending on the preparation conditions and the size of the A cation: All four cations form salts crystallizing with the (NH4)2[WO2S2] structure type (monoclinic, space group C2/c, Z = 4, for A = Rb: a = 1144.32(11), b = 732.60(4), c = 978.99(10) pm, β = 120.324(7)°, R1 = 0.0274). For the three alkali metal cations a second polymorph with a new structure type (monoclinic, space group P21/c, Z = 4) is observed in addition (for A = Rb: a = 674.83(2), b = 852.98(3), c = 1383.10(9) pm, β = 115.19(1)°, R1 = 0.0216). The cesium salt also crystallizes with a third modification of another new structure type (orthorhombic, space group Pbcn, Z = 4, a = 915.30(6), b = 777.27(7), c = 1120.02(7) pm, R1 = 0.0350). Only for K, an anhydrous monosulfidomolybdate could be obtained (K2[MoO4] structure type, monoclinic, space group C2/m, Z = 4, a = 1288.7(3), b = 615.7(2), c = 762.2(1) pm, β = 109.59(1)°, R1 = 0.0736). The intramolecular chemical bonding in the molybdate anions is discussed and compared with the respective vanadates. Hereby aspects like bond lengths, bond strengths and force constants derived from Raman spectroscopy, are taken into account. Especially for the polymorphic disulfido salts, in-depth analyses of the local coordination numbers and the packing of the ions are presented. The gradual bathochromic shift of the crystal color with increasing S content and increasing size of the counter cations A and molar volumes (for the polymorphic forms), respectively, is in accordance with the increase of the experimental (UV/Vis spectroscopy) and calculated (FP-LAPW band structure theory) band gaps.

Depending on both electronic (valence electron numbers) and geometric (atom size ratios) characteristics of the contributing elements, the 1 : 1 compounds AIIM of the heavier alkaline earth elements A and electron-rich transition metals M form the well known CrB or FeB structure types. Both structure types exhibit M zig-zag chains, which are stacked in different orientations. In systematic studies of the pseudo-binary section CaAgxZn1−x four new ternary phases with different stacking variants between the CrB (cubic stacking, c) and the FeB (hexagonal stacking, h2) structure type have been prepared and characterized on the basis of single crystal X-ray data. Starting from CaAg (CrB type, orthorhombic, space group Cmcm, a = 405.22(7), b = 1144.7(2), c = 464.43(11) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0197), up to 24% of Ag (CaAg0.76Zn0.24: a = 408.6(2), b = 1144.3(5), c = 460.7(2) pm, R1 = 0.0208) can be substituted by zinc without a change in the structure type. Close to the 1 : 1 ratio of Ag and Zn, the HT-TbNi structure type with the stacking sequence (hc2)2, i. e. 33% hexagonality (CaAg0.52Zn0.48: orthorhombic, space group Pnma, a = 2345.47(6), b = 454.370(10), c = 609.950(10) pm, Z = 12, R1 = 0.0298) is formed, followed by the SrAg type with 50% hexagonality (CaAg0.48Zn0.52: orthorhombic, space group Pnma, a = 1571.0(2), b = 451.50(7), c = 609.80(9) pm, Z = 8, R1 = 0.0733). The amount of hexagonal stacking is further increased with increasing Zn content in CaAg0.33Zn0.67 (Gd0.7Y0.3 structure type, h2c stacking, 67% hexagonality, monoclinic, space group P21/m, a = 610.39(9), b = 448.53(5), c = 1195.7(2) pm, β = 96.829(14)◦, Z = 3, R1 = 0.0221). Finally, a pure hexagonal stacking sequence, i. e. the FeB structure type (orthorhombic, space group Pnma, Z = 4) is observed from CaAg0.14Zn0.86 (a = 804.57(2), b = 443.050(10), c = 611.350(10) pm, R1 = 0.0131) to CaAg0.06Zn0.94 (a = 806.1(3), b = 441.0(2), c = 610.4(3) pm, R1 = 0.0255). Intriguingly, the series ends with the binary compound CaZn, which again crystallizes with the CrB structure type exhibiting cubic stacking of the zig-zag chains only (0% hexagonality). In an accompanying computational study, the chemical bonding in the series Ca(Ge/Ga/Zn/Ag) of isotypic binary metallides with variable valence electron numbers has been analyzed using FP-LAPW band structure methods. The electronic structures of the two border stacking variants are compared using the crystal data of CaZn (CrB type) and CaAg0.06Zn0.94 (FeB type). Geometrical and electronic criteria are used to compare and discuss the stability ranges of the different stacking variants inbetween the CrB and the FeB structure type found in polar intermetallic 1 : 1 phases.

In the course of attempts to substitute Ca by Yb and Sr by Eu in known alkaline earth Al-germanides, the four new ternary compounds Eu3Al1.8Ge2.2, Eu3 Al2Ge4, Yb2 AlGe3, and Yb17Al8Ge19 have been synthesized from mixtures of the elements and their crystal structures determined by means of single-crystal X-ray data. The two europium compounds Eu3Al1.8Ge2.2 (Ta3B4 structure type, orthorhombic, space group Immm, a = 417.68(3), b = 470.70(3), c = 1897.2(2) pm, Z = 2, R1 = 0.0439) and Eu3Al2Ge4 (Sr3Al2Ge4 structure type, monoclinic, space group C2/m, a = 1235.9(6), b = 416.8(2), c = 878.4(4) pm, β = 110.615(13)°, Z = 2, R1 = 0.0978) are isotypic with the corresponding strontium phases. After ionic decomposition, the layers [Al2- Ge4- ]6− in Eu3Al2Ge4 with four-bonded Al and three-bonded Ge atoms can be interpreted as electron-precise Zintl anions. In contrast, the planar ribbons 1∞[Al2/2Ge2Al2/2] of condensed six-membered rings in Eu3Al1.8Ge2.2 exhibit considerably shorter Al-Ge bonds and an Al-Al bond length of only 251 pm. Yb2AlGe3 (orthorhombic, space group Pnma, a = 682.20(10), b = 417.87(9), c = 1813.9(3) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0415) crystallizes with the Y2AlGe3 structure type. Folded [Al2Ge2] ladders, also found in Eu3Al2Ge4 and the known compound Yb7Al5Ge8, are connected by planar cis/trans chains of Ge atoms. The total density of states calculated within the FP-LAPW|DFT band structure approach shows a distinct minimum at the Fermi level for the electron precise Zintl compound Eu3Al2Ge4, whereas π-bonding contributions are evident from the band structures of Eu3Al2Ge2 and Yb2AlGe3. In full accordance, the tDOS of both compounds exhibits no minimum at EF, small phase widths are possible for Eu3Al2Ge2 and related alkaline earth compounds, and Yb2AlGe3 is isotypic with several other more electron-rich LnIII compounds. The complicated structure of the new compound Yb17Al8Ge19 (tetragonal, space group P4/nmm, a = 1542.50(2), c = 788.285(8) pm, Z = 2, R1 = 0.0282) contains three different building blocks: distorted [Al4Ge4] heterocubane units are interconnected by four-bonded Ge atoms to form columns running along the c axis. Secondly, eight-membered rings are formed by alternating Al and Ge atoms, each being in a trigonal-planar Al/Ge coordination. The rings are terminated by Ge atoms (bonded to Ge of the ring) and linked to the first structural unit by a further Ge atom (bonded to Al of the ring). Thirdly, inside the large channels, which are formed by the packing of the eightmembered rings, Ge2 dumbbells are interspersed as a third structural element.

AbstractThe two isotypic rubidium chalcogenido diferrates Rb12[Fe2Q6](Q2)3 (Q=S/Se), which both form needles with green-metallic lustre, were synthesized from Rb2S, elemental iron, rubidium and sulfur (Q=S) or from the pure elements (Q=Se) at maximum temperatures of 500–800°C. Their triclinic crystal structures were determined by means of X-ray single crystal data (space group P1̅, a=863.960(10)/903.2(3), b=942.790(10)/982.1(3), c=1182.70(2)/1227.4(4) pm, α=77.4740(10)/77.262(6), β=71.5250(10)/71.462(6), γ=63.7560(10)/63.462(5)°, Z=1, R1=0.0308/0.0658 for Q=S/Se). The structures contain isolated dinuclear anions [FeIII2Q6]6− composed of two edge-sharing [FeQ4] tetrahedra (dFe−Q =223.4–232.3/236.2–244.8 pm), which are also found in the two polymorphs of the pure alkali diferrates Rb6[Fe2Q6]. The diferrate ions are arranged in layers running in the a/b plane around z=0. Inbetween (around $z \approx {1 \over 2}$), two crystallographically different disulfide/diselenide ions $Q_2^{2 - }$ (dQ−Q =211.1–213.4/237.9–241.1 pm), which are arranged in slightly puckered 36 nets, are intercalated. The intra-anionic distances and angles, the Rb coordination numbers and the molar volumes of these two ‘double-salts’ are in accordance with their corresponding reference compounds, Rb6[Fe2Q6] and Rb2Q2. In addition, the two polymorphs of Rb6[Fe2Se6], which are both isotypic with the sulfido analogous (Cs6[Ga2Se6]-type, monoclinic, space group P21/c, a=827.84(5), b=1329.51(7), c=1074.10(6) pm, β=127.130(5)°, R1=0.0443 and Ba6[Al2Sb6]-type, orthorhombic, space group Cmce, a=1963.70(3), b=718.98(3), c=1348.40(7) pm, R1=0.0264) were prepared and characterized to complete the series of alkali diferrates(III) with oxido, sulfido and selenido ligands. The electronic band structures of the three Rb salts Rb6[Fe2Q6], which have been calculated within the GGA+U approach applying an AFM spin ordering in the dimers and appropriate Hubbard parameters, allow a comparison of the chemical bonding characteristics (e.g. covalency) and the magnetic properties (magnetic moments) within the series of chalcogenido ligands. An analysis of the spin densities enables a comparative consideration of the mechanisms crucial for the magnetic ordering in chalcogenido ferrates. Ultimately, the electronic structure of the new compound Rb12[Fe2S6](S2)3 nicely compares with those of the S2-free reference compound Rb6[Fe2S6].

The new isotypic intermetallic phases Ba5MIII5MIV (MIII = Al, Ga; MIV = Sn, Pb) have been synthesized from stoichiometric amounts of the elements at maximum temperatures of 900 to 1000 ◦C. They crystallize in the hexagonal space group P6̄m2 (Ba5Al5Sn: a = 605.05(8), c = 1109.0(2) pm, R1 = 0.0137; Ba5Ga5Sn: a = 599.45(5), c = 1086.00(7) pm, R1 = 0.0485; Ba5Al5Pb: a = 606.9(2), c = 1112.0(4) pm, R1 = 0.0409 and Ba5Ga5Pb: a = 601.76(7), c = 1091.51(13) pm, R1 = 0.0295), forming a new structure type. Similar to the Zintl phases Ba2MIV (Co2Si structure type, orthorhombic, space group Pnma; Ba2Sn: a = 861.52(14), b = 569.85(9), c = 1056.9(2) pm, R1 = 0.0217 and Ba2Pb: a = 865.12(13), b = 569.1(2), c = 1061.8(2) pm, R1 = 0.0470), these new ternary phases contain isolated MIV atoms (coordinated by 11 Ba atoms). In addition, sheets of 3- and 4-bonded Al/Ga atoms similar to those in Ba3Al5 are present. In accordance with this, a formal subdivision of Ba5MIII5MIV into Ba3MIII5 ・ Ba2MIV can be performed to describe the observed intergrowth or chemical twinning of two different binary intermetallics to give the new ternary compounds. Beyond structural aspects, also the nature of the chemical bonding (as studied by FP-LAPW calculations) in these new, non-electron precise compounds in the vicinity of the Zintl border can be interpreted in this vein.

Following the observation that the binary dicadmides and diaurides of calcium and strontium (A) both form the KHg2 structure type, the two sections AIICdxAu2−x have been studied systematically by means of synthetic, X-ray structural and theoretical investigations. The binary border compound CaCd2 is dimorphic forming the KHg2 structure at elevated temperatures (orthorhombic, space group Imma, a = 488.63(9), b = 754.1(2), c = 851.3(2) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0498) and the MgZn2-type Laves phase at ambient conditions (hexagonal, space group P63/mmc, a = 599.71(9), c = 962.7(2) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0309). Starting from the known binary calcium auride CaAu2 only a very small amount of Au can be replaced by Cd. Around the 1 : 1 ratio of Au and Cd the TiNiSi structure type (orthorhombic, space group Pnma), an ordered variant of the KHg2 type, has a small homogeneity range (CaCdxAu2−x with x = 1/0.76(2): a = 735.0(1)/731.7(1), b = 433.66(6)/431.43(7), c = 873.7(2)/869.9(2) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0482/0.0539). The analogous structure type is also observed in the Sr compounds with the difference that in this case a continuous transition from the KHg2 type of SrAu2 (i. e. x = 0) towards the distorted TiNiSi structure type (up to x = 0.86) is observed in the series SrCdxAu2−x (for x = 0.86(1)/0.45(1): a = 764.0(1)/758.4(1), b = 458.07(7)/474.6(1), c = 872.16(12)/829.2(2) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0446/0.0410). Attempts to prepare the Ca compounds of intermediate composition around a Cd content of x ≈ 0.5 resulted in the formation of the Aurich phase Ca5Cd2Au10 crystallizing with the Zr7Ni10 structure type (orthorhombic, space group Cmca, a = 1390.6(4), b = 1015.7(3), c = 1025.6(2) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0657). In this compound, Cd and Ca occupy common crystallographic sites, which are occupied by In in the isotypic ternary compound Ca4In3Au10. Similarly, at the Cd-rich parts of the sections AIICdxAu2−x no simple phase width of the KHg2 structure type exists. In the case of the calcium series the new compound Ca11Cd18Au4, which shows only a very small phase width, is formed instead. This compound crystallizes with a new structure type (Ca11Cd18+xAu4−x with x = 0.6/0: tetragonal, space group I41/amd, a = 1030.83(6)/1029.39(6), c = 3062.5(3)/3051.0(3) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0475/0.0379) exhibiting a complicated Cd/Au polyanion with four-, five- and six-bonded Cd/Au atoms. The results of FPLAPWband structure calculations are used to explain the electronic stability of the compounds. The calculated Bader charges of cadmium and gold atoms (and In and Au atoms for comparison) are used to discuss the transition between Cd-rich cadmides (like CaCd2 and Ca11Cd18Au4), auridocadmates (like CaCdAu) and the Cd-poor cadmium aurides (like Ca5Cd2Au10).

Reaction of CH3HgOH with thymidine (HT) yielded the neutral CH3HgT complex crystallizing as a hydrated or an anhydrous material, depending on preparation conditions. Both forms were examined by X-ray diffraction. The anhydrous variety is monoclinic, space group P21, a = 4.798(6), b = 14.270(8), c = 10.390(4) Å, β = 102.74(9)°, and Z = 2 molecules per cell. The structure was refined on 1552 nonzero MoKα reflections to a conventional R factor of 0.034. The hydrated form belongs to the orthorhombic space group P212121, a = 10.484(3), b = 14.633(3), c = 18.538(5), Z = 8. The structure was refined on 1816 nonzero MoKα reflections to R = 0.036. In both forms, the CH3Hg+ ion is linearly bonded to the deprotonated N(3) site of thymidine. The water molecules and hydroxyl groups in the ribose unit participate in a hydrogen bonding network, in which the carbonyl groups are involved as acceptors. The infrared spectra of the two forms differ significantly only by the absorptions due to the water molecules. By comparing with the spectrum of thymidine, diagnostic regions for complexation with deprotonated thymidine have been proposed

AbstractThree new compounds of the CsLn[P2Se6] family with Ln = Ce, Sm and Er have been prepared and structurally characterized. Plate-shaped, amber-colored single crystals of these cesium lanthanoid(III) hexaselenodiphosphates(IV) were obtained by heating stoichiometric amounts of Ln, P and Se with CsCl as a reactive flux in fused silica ampoules at 800 °C for four days. CsCe[P2Se6] crystallizes monoclinically in space group P21/c with a = 1297.86(9), b = 776.24(5), c = 1198.43(8) pm, β = 106.589(3)° and Z = 4. The structure is isotypic with that of KLa[P2Se6], the Cs+ cations being ten-fold coordinated by selenium atoms to form double layers of condensed [CsSe10]19− polyhedra. Ce3+ resides in a nine-fold coordination and the [CeSe9]15− polyhedra also form double layers parallel to (100). CsSm[P2Se6] crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 with a = 688.67(5), b = 754.48(5), c = 2215.21(15) pm and Z = 4. Its structure is isotypic with that of KY[P2Se6] and the Cs+ cations reside in an eleven-fold coordination of selenium atoms constituting monolayers of condensed [CsSe11]21− polyhedra within the (001) plane. Sm3+ exhibits an eight-fold coordination sphere of selenium atoms and the [SmSe8]13− polyhedra are also linked to build up parallel monolayers. CsEr[P2Se6] crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c again, but forms its own structure type with the lattice parameters a = 753.81(5), b = 1281.92(9), c = 1276.47(9) pm and β = 106.898(3)° and Z = 4. The Cs+ cations are twelve-fold coordinated by selenium atoms and erects a three-dimensional framework of condensed [CsSe12]23− polyhedra. The Er3+ cations show seven selenium atoms as neighbors and the [ErSe7]11− polyhedra are edge-connected to form discrete dimers [Er2Se12]18−. All three structures have similar ethane-like [P2Se6]4– anions in staggered conformation with bond lengths of 219–226 pm for d(P1–P2) and 213–222 pm for d(P–Se), which connect the Cs+ and Ln3+ coordination polyhedra into three-dimensional crystal structures.

In the course of the synthesis of mixed oxidosulfido molybdates and tungstates by passing H2S gas through solutions of the oxido metalates, several new salts containing the metalates [MOS3]2- besides further anions (halides X-, hydrosulfide SH- or thiosulfate S2O2-3) were obtained as well-formed crystals. Their crystal structures have been determined using single crystal X-ray data. The salts containing SH- as the additional anion crystallize with a new structure type (orthorhombic, space group Pmn21, M=Mo=W, TM =20=-125 °C: a=957.7(2)/954.15(2), b=636.2(2)/636.19(1), c=812.4(2)/809.88(2) pm, Z =2, R1=0.0319=0.0185). The mixed sulfidomolybdate/ chloride K3[MoO1.25S2.75]Cl (orthorhombic, space group Pca21, a=1246.3(1), b=623.20(4), c=1230.44(8) pm, Z =4, R1=0.0472) is isotypic with the sulfidotungstate K3[WOS3]Cl, but contains 25% of the disulfido molybdate. The structures of the SH- and the Cl- salts are closely related: In both cases, the trisulfido metalates are overall coordinated by cuboctahedra of 12 K+ ions, and the small additional anions are centered in K+ octahedra. In this regard, the structures are both derivatives of the cubic perovskite (and thus the Cu3Au) type. This crystallographic group-subgroup relation is discussed in detail. Yellow hexagonal columns of the double salt K6[WOS3]2(S2O3) were obtained by the methanothermal decomposition of the disulfidotungstate K2[WO2S2]. It crystallizes with a new structure type (hexagonal, space group P63mc, a=983.78(8), c=1227.3(1) pm, Z =2, R1=0.0175). Like in the other mixed salts, the two crystallographically different [WOS3]2- anions exhibit an overall cuboctahedral coordination by 12 potassium cations. The smaller S2O2-3 anions are surrounded by nine K+ ions arranged in the form of two flat facesharing octahedra. Again similar to the mixed halides and hydrosulfides, the two K polyhedra around the anions, here present in a 2 : 1 ratio, are arranged in a space-filling packing, in this case related to the ht- BaMnO3 (and thus the Ni3Ti) structure type. According to their ‘double salt’ character, the Mo/W-O and Mo/W-S distances and the intramolecular vibrational frequencies of the tetrahedral moieties of the title compounds are similar between them and those in the pure potassium trisulfido metalates. This further becomes apparent from the additive nature of their molar volumes, which correspond to the sum of the volumes of the simple salts KCl, KSH or K2(S2O3) and K2[MoOS3].

Two new coordination polymers, namely, poly[[μ3-3-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)propionato]zinc(II)], [Zn(C10H8N2O2)]n, (1), and poly[bis[μ2-3-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)propionato]cadmium(II)], [Cd(C10H8N2O2)2]n, (2) have been synthesized from 3-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)propanoic acid ligands through a mixed-ligand synthetic strategy under a solvothermal environment, and studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex1crystallizes in the orthorhombic space groupPbcaand features a two-dimensional structure formed by a binuclear Zn2O4core. Complex2, however, crystallizes in the monoclinic space groupP21/cand forms a one-dimensional chain structure. The ZnIIand CdIIions have different coordination numbers and the 3-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)propanoate ligands display different coordination modes. The structures reported here show the importance of the selection of metal ions and suitable ligands.

Ternary mixed Ca/Ba-Sr pentastannides AIISn5 (AII = Ca, Sr, Ba) have been synthesized from stoichiometric mixtures of the elements or from tin-rich melts. The crystal structures of two new compounds of overall composition ASn5 (A = Sr, Ba) were determined by means of single-crystal X-ray data. The structures of both Sr0.94Ba0.06Sn5 (monoclinic, space group C2/m, a = 1762.8(11), b = 704.1(3), c = 1986(2) pm, β = 100.31(6)º, Z = 14, R1 = 0.0996) and Sr0.89Ba0.11Sn5 (orthorhombic, space group Cmcm, a = 708.1(2), b = 1770.4(8), c = 2781.6(11) pm, Z = 20 , R1 = 0.0821) are closely related and can be described by different stacking sequences of comparable nets. They both resemble the structural features of the tristannides AIISn3 in forming dimers and trimers of facesharing Sn6-octahedra, which are further connected via common corners. According to the higher tin content, the rods formed of the octahedra are interspersed by additional Sn atoms, which themselves show a bonding situation resembling the structure of elementary tin. The complex tin network formed by the strong Sn-Sn bonds alone can be regarded as a cutout of the hexagonal diamond structure. In this view, the similarities of the title compounds to the known binary stannides BaSn5 and SrSn4 become apparent. The phase widths of the latter have been investigated and shown to reach up to Sr0.37Ba0.63Sn5 (BaSn5 type, hexagonal, space group P6/mmm, a = 536.8(2), c = 695.2(3) pm, R1 = 0.0312) and Sr0.79Ca0.21Sn4 (SrSn4 type, orthorhombic, space group Cmcm, a = 461.7(3), b = 1714.1(14), c = 706.7(4) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0861), respectively. The total density of states calculated for the orthorhombic pentastannide within the FP-LAPW DFT band structure approach shows a broad minimum at the Fermi level, which can be explained using the Zintl and the Wade/Jemmis electron counting rules.
