Infrared spectra of polycrystalline K2CuCl4•2H2O at different degrees of deuteration were recorded, between 4000 and 300 cm−1, at temperatures from −160 to 90 °C. The spectra confirm the existence of only one crystallographically distinct type of water molecule in the structure, on sites of symmetry C2r. Vibrational coupling of the bending fundamentals of the water molecule has been analyzed in detail. It is shown that the existence and magnitude of such coupling may be used to predict, from the spectrum of a hydrate, the manner in which a water molecule participates in the crystal structure. The structure and the vibrational spectra of K2CuCl4•2H2O are compared with those of the closely related CuCl2•2H2O.

AbstractTransparent colorless crystals of KCs[N(CN)2]2 and NaRb2[N(CN)2]3 · H2O were obtained by blending aqueous solutions of Na[N(CN)2] and RbF or KF, respectively. After evaporation of the water, the remaining solid was extracted with absolute ethanol and the solvent was allowed to evaporate at r. t.. KCs[N(CN)2]2 crystallizes in the space group C2/c (no. 15) with the cell parameters a = 1382.7(2), b = 998.1(1) and c = 1455.4(2) pm, and β = 118.085(4) °. The structure of NaRb2[N(CN)2]3 · H2O is exhibiting the space group P63/m (no. 176) with the cell parameters a = 705.98(7) and c = 1462.89(12) pm. Single-crystalline α-K[N(CN)2] was obtained while attempting to synthesize ‘NaK2[N(CN)2]3’, corroborating the results of previous X-ray powder diffraction experiments. Vibrational spectra and DSC/TGA analyses complete our results.

Charge Balancing

Alkali metal thallides go back to the investigative works of Eduard Zintl about base metals in negative oxidation states. In 1932, he described the crystal structure of NaTl as the first representative for this class of compounds. Since then, a bunch of versatile crystal structures has been reported for thallium as electronegative element in intermetallic solid state compounds. For combinations of thallium with alkali metals as electropositive counterparts, a broad range of different unique structure types has been observed. Interestingly, various thallium substructures at the same or very similar valence electron concentration (VEC) are obtained. This in return emphasizes that the role of the alkali metals on structure formation goes far beyond ancillary filling atoms, which are present only due to charge balancing reasons. In this review, the alkali metals are in focus and the local surroundings of the latter are discussed in terms of their crystallographic sites in the corresponding crystal structures.

Single crystals of Ca11N6[CN2]2 (dark red needles, tetragonal, P42/mnm (no. 136), a = 1456.22(5), and c = 361.86(2) pm, Z = 2), Ca4N2[CN2] (transparent yellow needles, orthorhombic, Pnma (no. 62), a = 1146.51(11), b = 358.33(4), and c = 1385.77(13) pm, Z = 4) and Ca[CN2] (transparent, colorless, triangular plates, rhombohedral, R3̅m (no. 166), a = 369.00(3), and c = 1477.5(3) pm, Z = 3) were obtained by the reaction of Na2[CN2], CaCl2 and Ca3N2 (if demanded by stoichiometry) in arc-welded Ta ampoules at temperatures between 1200 - 1400 K. Their crystal structures were re-determined by means of single crystal X-ray structure analyses. Additionally, the Raman spectra were recorded on these same single crystals, whereas the IR spectra were obtained with the KBr pellet technique. The title compounds exhibit characteristic features for carbodiimide units with D∞h symmetry (d(C-N) = 121.7 - 123.8 pm and ∡ (N-C-N) = 180°). The vibrational frequencies of these units are in the expected range (Ca11N6[CN2]2: νs = 1230, νs = 2008; δ = 673/645/624 cm−1; Ca4N2[CN2]: νs = 1230, νs = 1986; δ = 672/647 cm−1; Ca[CN2]: νs = 1274, νs = 2031, δ = 668 cm−1). The structural results are more precise than the previously reported data, and with the newly attained Raman spectrum of Ca11N6[CN2]2 we correct data reported earlier.
