ABSTRACTThe roles which ligand size and stability play in influencing solid-state thermolyses products and phases are developed for a group of metal thiolate compounds. The exploration includes Pb(SR)2 [R = t-Bu, i-Bu, s-Bu], Cd(SR*)2 [ R* = i-Pr, I-Bu, Bz], ClHgSR** [ R** = i- Pr, neo-Pent, Bz] and In(SR***)3 [R*** = 2,4,6-(i-Pr)3C6H2, 2-CH3O-5-CH3C6H3, o- C6H4CH2N(CH3)2]. In several examples, the precursors have been characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. In most cases, solid-state decomposition products have been identified by XRPD, and volatile decomposition products have been identified by GC/MS. All precursors have been studied by TGA.

AbstractZinc- and cadmium bis(alkylthiolate) compounds have been prepared and converted into the appropriate binary metal sulfides by thermal treatment. Several mercury chlorothiolates have been synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Their decomposition pathways are discussed. The prepared binary metal sulfides have been studied by XRPD and - in selected cases - by particle size determination. The volatile co-products have been isolated and characterized by GC/MS.

ABSTRACTWe have prepared compounds having the general formula M(SR)2 (M = Zn, Cd; R = i-Pr, t-Bu, Bz) and Hg(SR)CI (R = i-Pr, Bz) and investigated their use as potential sources in the preparation of metal sulfides from molecular precursors. Selected examples of the prepared compounds have been studied by single crystal x-ray diffraction. Decomposition has been carried out both in the solid state and by heating a suspension of a metal thiolate in a high boiling hydrocarbon. The decomposition products have been studied by GC/MS (liquids) and XRD (solids).

AbstractMetal thiolates of the general formula M(SR)2 (M = Pb, Zn, Cd) and Cl-Hg-SR (R = alkyl) have been prepared and characterized by spectroscopic techniques, TGA and, in selected cases, single crystal X-ray diffraction. The metal bis(thiolate) compounds can be converted into the related metal sulfides by thermolyses. The solid state materials have been characterized by XRPD, SEM and, in selected cases, by particle size determination. The volatile pyrolytic co-products have been isolated and characterized by GC/MS. The decomposition pathways of mercury chlorothiolates are more complicated and depend on the nature of the organic group present in Cl-Hg-SR.

The reaction of N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)hydroxylamine with potassium hydride in pentane affords a product of the formula {K6[OSiMe3]4[ON(SiMe3)2]2}, resulting from deprotonation followed by N-O bond cleavage and 1,2-silylshift. The compound was characterised by elemental analysis and by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The aggregate consists of a K3O3 bis-cubane core, with N(SiMe3)2 groups at the oxygen atoms shared by the two cubes, andMe3Si groups attached to the four O vertices. Two weak K···N interactions are also detected in the solid state structure.

Following the suggestion made earlier, on the basis of solution spectroscopy, that a number of eriostyl/nitrobenzoate compounds form charge-transfer self-complexes, a number of these have been investigated structurally by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods in order to ascertain the presence or otherwise of such interactions in the solid state. The substances thus studied were eriostyl 3,5-dinitrobenzoate (1), eriostyl p-nitrobenzoate (2), tetrahydroeriostyl 3,5-dinitrobenzoate (3), and eriostemyl 3,5-dinitrobenzoate (4);* structure determinations in all cases, although displaying the presence of strong charge-transfer interactions from the two moieties of each molecule, show that the interactions in the solid state are intermolecular in nature.

The solid-state structure of N,N-dibenzylhydroxylamine (1) has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P 21/n with four formula units in the unit cell. N,N-dibenzylhydroxylamine dimerizes to give N2O2H2 sixmembered rings as a result of the formation of two hydrogen bonds O - H ··· N in the solid state.

ABSTRACTThe Structure I type binary metal clathrates of K/Si, Rb/Si and Cs/Sn have been synthesised and studied by powder X-ray diffraction and solid state NMR. Rietveld analysis shows that in all three materials some of the cages are empty, and that in the Cs/Sn clathrate there are vacancies in the Sn framework. The NMR results yield Knight shifts for 29Si and 39K and confirm that the Cs/Sn clathrate is not conducting. Many of the features of the NMR spectra can be understood in terms of the distributions of atom vacancies.
