AbstractThe interdependence of hydrogen – oxygen distances in inorganic compounds can be described by a close correlation if sufficiently high coordination numbers for hydrogen are taken into account. For this purpose, the coordination is favourably defined as chemical coordination number

Imidodiphosphates ⊖N[PO(OR)2]2 and Imidodiphosphonates ⊖N[POR2]2 are effective chelating ligands for a variety of metal cations including even Na⊕, for which a lipophilically wrapped hexameric polyion cluster has been structurally characterized. The corresponding hexameric lithium and polyrubidium ion complexes reported here exhibit considerable structural differences: The rather small Li⊕ cations of coordination number five and tetraphenylimidodiphosphate form an isolated hexameric aggregate analogous to the Na⊕ one, whereas the larger Rb⊕ with coordination number seven and (3,4-dimethylphenyl)substituents crystallizes as a chain polymer. Based on the crystal structures, the dominant Coulomb attractions between cations and anions, the spatial requirement of the ligands and the essential phenyl/phenyl interactions in their lipophilic skin are discussed

Robin Clark was a distinguished physical/inorganic chemist who made major discoveries in the coordination chemistry of the early transition metals, especially of titanium and vanadium complexes with high coordination numbers (notably seven and eight) and of the structures and physical properties of mixed valence, linear chain and metal–metal bonded compounds. He applied far-infrared spectroscopy to study metal–ligand vibrations systematically and established the technique for structure elucidation of transition metal and main group compounds. He also developed Raman and resonance Raman spectroscopy applied to inorganic compounds and highly coloured solids including mineral samples. That work led to his seminal applications of microbeam Raman spectroscopy for the identification of pigments and other constituents of artworks and historical artefacts, thereby developing a basis for testing their provenance and the identification of forgeries.

Abstract The short-range order of vitreous V20 5 and of three (Zn0)Jt(V20 5)1_x glasses with x = 0.2, 0.4, and 0.5 is studied by X-ray and neutron diffraction experiments where the change of the contrast allows to resolve the V -0 and Z n -0 correlations. The V -0 and the Z n -0 first-neighbor peaks are approximat­ ed by several Gaussian functions. In case of vitreous V20 5 two obvious V -0 distances exist which are related with V 0 4 and V 0 5 units. With ZnO additions the V -O coordination number decreases from 4.4 in vitreous V20 5 to 4.0 in the metavanadate glass where the strongest decrease of the fraction of V 0 5 units is found for glasses of * < 0.2. Dominantly, the V 0 5 groups are linked with the neighboring units by comers. The Z n-0 coordination numbers of the modified glasses are about five with closest dis­ tances of = 0.200 nm.

A simple and absolute method for the calculation of the first coordination number for any pure, isotropic liquid element is presented. The liquid density and the position for the first peak of the radial distribution function, assumed to be the atomic diameter, are the only parameters required. The coordination number for liquid metals that exhibit a BCC (body-centred cube) solid structure averages 7.4 while the first coordination number for liquid metals with a FCC (face-centred cube) or CPH (close-packed hexagonal) solid structure averages 7.1. Those liquid elements that have less closed-packed solid structures have a first coordination number less than 7.0. The calculation also correctly predicts the first coordination number for liquid Se to be 2.4, consistent with its chain-like structure. The calculated values for the liquid element coordination numbers are consistent with the decrease in density of a few percent that occurs upon melting and appear to be related to the Engel–Brewer valence of the solid, which suggests that the electron structure of the solid may be retained upon melting. The first coordination numbers for liquid Ge and Si were calculated to be 5.0 and 4.7, respectively, larger than the value of 4.0 for solid structures. The increase in coordination number upon melting accounts for the increase in density of Ge and Si that occurs upon melting.PACS No.: 61.20.Gy

Abstract Molecular dynamic models are created for properties of bivalent ions in organic solvents. It is shown that molecules of the considered solvents bound to ions via oxygen atoms. A theoretical model is developed that describes the ion coordination number. The coordination number in this model is determined by the ratio between the sizes of the ion and the atom organic molecule bound to it. It is shown that the coordination number depends weakly on the solvent and strongly on the type of ion. A value of 0.13 nm is obtained for the effective size of an oxygen atom bound to a bivalent ion. The constructed theoretical model agrees with the results from molecular dynamic calculations and the available experimental data.

The crystal structure of the title compound [EuCl2(OH2)2]Cl ('europium trichloride hexahydrate') has been redetermined from single-crystal diffractometer data at 295 K and refined to a residual of 0.040 for 1094 independent 'observed' reflections. Crystals are monoclinic, P2/n, a 9.659(3), b 6.529(2), c 7.936(4) �, β 93.67(4)�, Z 2. The europium atom lies on a crystallographic twofold axis, which passes between the two planes of a square-antiprismatic coordination environment in which the two chlorine atoms, on opposite faces, lie cis to each other. Eu-O distances range from 2.401(6) to 2.431(5) �; Eu-Cl is 2.774(2) �.
