AbstractBaSr2Ge3O9 was prepared by high-temperature solid-state synthesis at 1100°C in a platinum crucible from barium carbonate, strontium carbonate, and germanium(IV) oxide. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1̅ (no. 2) isotypically to walstromite BaCa2Si3O9. The structure was refined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data: a=7.104(5), b=10.060(7), c=7.099(5) Å, α=83.0(2), β=77.0(2), γ=70.2(2)°, V=464.3(6) Å3, R1=0.0230, and wR2=0.0602 for all data. BaSr2Ge3O9 is characterized by three-membered rings of germanate tetrahedra. There are three crystallographically different Ge sites (Ge1, Ge2, and Ge3) in each [Ge3O9]6− ring. The rings occur in layers with the apices of alternating rings pointing in opposite directions. The Sr2+ and Ba2+ ions are located in between. The Sr1 cation is eight-fold coordinated, while Sr2 is octahedrally surrounded by oxide anions, and the Ba cation again eight-fold coordinated.

The compound crystallizes monoclinically in the space group P21/c (no. 14) (Z=4) isotypically to Li3Gd(BO3)2. The structure was refined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data: a=8.616(3), b=6.416(3), c=10.014(2) Å, β=116.6(2)°, V=494.9(3) Å3, R1=0.0211, and wR2=0.0378 for all data. The crystal structure of Li3Y(BO3)2 consists of [Y2O14] dinuclear units, which are interconnected to each other by planar B(1)O3 groups and LiO4 tetrahedra via common edges and corners along the a axis.

AbstractLi3K3Eu7(BO3)9 was prepared by high-temperature solid state synthesis at 900°C in a platinum crucible from lithium carbonate, potassium carbonate, boric acid, and europium(III) oxide. The title compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pca21 (no. 29) (Z=4). The structure was refined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data: a=21.126(2), b=6.502(2), c=17.619(2) Å, V=2420.1(2) Å3, R1=0.0183 and wR2=0.0412 for all data. The crystal structure of Li3K3Eu7(BO3)9 is isotypic to Li3K3Y7(BO3)9 featuring isolated BO3 units and LiO6 octahedra forming [Li3B4O21] units in the ac plane, which are linked by additional BO3 units.

Three isostructural transition-metal arsenides and germanides, namely niobium nickel arsenide, Nb0.92(1)NiAs, niobium cobalt arsenide, NbCoAs, and niobium nickel germanide, NbNiGe, were obtained as inadvertent side products of high-temperature reactions in sealed niobium containers. In addition to reporting for the very first time the structures of the title compounds, refined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data, this article also serves as a reminder that niobium containers may not be suitable for the synthesis of ternary arsenides and germanides by traditional high-temperature reactions. Synthetic work involving alkali or alkaline-earth metals, transition or early post-transition metals, and elements from groups 14 or 15 under such conditions may yield Nb-containing products, which at times could be the major products of such reactions.

Three biguanidinium salts of the energetic dinitramide anion have been prepared and structurally characterized from room-temperature X-ray diffraction data. Biguanidinium mono-dinitramide, (BIGH)(DN), triclinic, P\overline 1, a = 4.3686 (4), b = 9.404 (2), c = 10.742 (1) Å, \alpha = 83.54 (1), \beta = 80.386 (9), \gamma = 79.93 (1)°, V = 426.8 (1) Å3, Z = 2, D x = 1.62 g cm−3. Biguanidinium bis-dinitramide, (BIGH2)(DN)2, monoclinic, C2/c, a = 11.892 (2), b = 8.131 (1), c = 13.038 (2) Å, \beta = 115.79 (1)°, V = 1135.1 (3) Å3, Z = 4, D x = 1.84 g cm−3. Biguanidinium bis-dinitramide monohydrate, (BIGH2)(DN)2.H2O, orthorhombic, P212121, a = 6.4201 (6), b = 13.408 (1), c = 14.584 (2) Å, V = 1255.4 (4) Å3, Z = 4, D x = 1.76 g cm−3. All three structures are characterized by extensive hydrogen bonding. Both the mono- and diprotontated cations consist of two planar halves twisted with respect to each other. The dinitramide anion has a surprisingly variable and asymmetric structure. The two halves of the anion are twisted with respect to each other; however, the twist varies from 5.1 to 28.9°. In addition, the two ends of the anion have significantly different geometries, e.g. the `equivalent' N—N bond lengths differ by up to 0.045 Å.

A new barium copper niobate, Ba4CuNb3O12, was successfully prepared by high-temperature solid-state reaction in an inert atmosphere. Rietveld-refinement analysis of the XRD data of the compound showed that it has the 8H-type hexagonal perovskite structure with space group P63/mmc (#194), a = 5.830(1) Å, c = 19.123(1) Å, and chemical composition of Ba4Cu1.84Nb2.16O12-δ.

AbstractCa12Ge17B8O58 was prepared by high-temperature solid state synthesis at 1100°C in a platinum crucible from calcium carbonate, boric acid, and germanium(IV) oxide. The compound crystallizes in the tetragonal crystal system in the space group P4̅ (No. 81) isotypically to Cd12Ge17B8O58. The structure was refined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data: a = 15.053(8), c = 4.723(2) Å, V = 1070.2(2) Å3, R1 = 0.0151, and wR2 = 0.0339 for all data. The crystal structure of Ca12Ge17B8O58 consists of [Ge4O12]n chains composed of GeO4 tetrahedra and GeO6 octahedra. The chains are interconnected into a [Ge4O10.5]n network via corner sharing. By additional [Ge(B2O7)4]28– clusters, these units are connected to a three-dimensional [Ge17B8O58]24– framework. The open structure forms three types of tunnels with five-, six-, and seven-membered rings (MRs) along the c axis, where the Ca2+ are located.

Reactions involving Fe(NO)2(CO)2 and the bis(phosphine) ligands bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (DPPM), bis(diphenylphosphino)acetylene (DPPA), 1,6-bis(diphenylphosphino)hexane (DPPH), and 1,4-bis(diphenyl phosphino)benzene (DPPB) have been examined. From these reactions, the mononuclear complex, Fe(κ1-DPPM)(NO)2(CO) 3, linear dinuclear species of the type Fe2(µ-L)(NO)4(CO)2 (L = Ph2PCH2PPh2 4, Ph2PC[Formula: see text]CPPh2 5, Ph2PCH2(CH3)4CH2PPh2 6, and Ph2P(p-C6H4)PPh2 7), and macrocyclic dinuclear species of the type Fe2(µ-L)2(NO)4 (L = Ph2PCH2PPh2 8 and Ph2PC[Formula: see text]CPPh2 9) were isolated and spectroscopically characterized. For 4, 5, 8, and 9, the solid-state molecular structures of the products were determined by use of single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Key words: dinitrosyliron, iron nitrosyls, dinuclear macrocycles, bis(phosphine) complexes.
