Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies illustrate that the three title compounds are isomorphous, belonging to the triclinic space group P[Formula: see text], with slightly distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry about cobalt. The solid-state 29Si, 119Sn, and 207Pb cross-polarization magic angle spinning (CP MAS) NMR spectra are presented. The indirect spin–spin coupling constant (J), quadrupolar–dipolar shift (d), direct dipolar coupling constant (D' ), anisotropy in spin–spin coupling (ΔJ), and the chemical shift tensor were extracted. A plot of the reduced coupling constant vs. s-electron densities at the nucleus indicates that the Fermi contact term may be dominant for the tin and lead complexes; however, the large ΔJ for all complexes indicate that there are also significant anisotropic terms. Trends in the Raman scattering spectra are also discussed.Key words: 29Si, 119Sn, and 207Pb CP MAS NMR, tetracarbonyl cobalt, spin–spin coupling, chemical shift tensor, quadrupole coupling, Fermi contact, cobalt–group 14.

High-resolution solid-state 31P NMR spectroscopy was used to investigate a series of 1:1 silver–triphenylphosphine complexes, [Ph3PAgX]n, where X is a monovalent anion and n = 1, 2, 3, 4, or ∞. The 31P CP MAS NMR spectra reveal the number of distinct phosphorus sites in these complexes as well as the |1J(109Ag,31P)| values, which range from 401 ± 10 Hz (X = N3–) to 869 ± 10 Hz (X = SO3CF3–). The data obtained here and in earlier investigations indicate that |1J(109Ag,31P)| values for silver–tertiary phosphine complexes decrease as Ag–P bond lengths increase. This experimental conclusion is supported by DFT calculations, which also indicate that the Fermi-contact mechanism is the only important spin–spin coupling mechanism for 1J(109Ag,31P) in these complexes. In addition, the crystal structure of a silver–triphenylphosphine trifluoroacetate tetramer was determined using X-ray crystallography, and the structure of a silver–triphenylphosphine chloride tetramer was reinvestigated.

Cobalt-59 and nitrogen-15 NMR spectra of the nitritopentamminecobalt(III) chloride, [(NH3)5Co-ONO]Cl2, and nitropentamminecobalt(III) chloride, [(NH3)5Co-NO2]Cl2, isomers in the solid state have been obtained at several applied magnetic field strengths. The 59Co NMR line shapes indicate that both the cobalt nuclear quadrupolar coupling constant (CQ) and the span of the chemical shift tensor (Ω) decrease when the complex isomerizes from [(NH3)5Co-ONO]2+ to [(NH3)5Co-NO2]2+; CQ decreases from 23 to 10.3 MHz and Ω changes from 1650 to 260 ppm. The 15N NMR line shapes also show a significant change in the nitrogen magnetic shielding tensor upon isomerization, with Ω decreasing from 710 to 547 ppm; also, an indirect spin-spin coupling, 1J(59Co,15N) = 63 Hz, is observed in the 15N NMR spectra of the nitro isomer. The NMR parameters are rationalized based on differences in the molecular structure of the two isomers. NMR spectra have also been recorded as the isomerization progresses with time and demonstrate the practicality of the technique for the study of solid-state isomerizations.Key words: 15N, 59Co, solid-state NMR, linkage isomerization, chemical shift tensor, electric field gradient tensor.

Several new thallium(iii) complexes, [Tl(4,4′-dmbpy)Cl3(DMSO)]·H2O (1), [Tl(4,4′-dtbpy)Cl3(DMSO)] (2), [Tl(5,5′-dmbpy)Cl3(DMSO)]·(5,5′-dmbpy) (3), and [Tl(6-mbpy)Cl3(DMSO)] (4) (4,4′-dmbpy = 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine, 4,4′-dtbpy = 4,4′-ditert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine, 5,5′-dmbpy = 5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine, and 6-mbpy = 6-methyl-2,2′-bipyridine) were prepared from the reaction of TlCl3 with the mentioned ligands in DMSO. The four complexes were fully characterised and their structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. These complexes have a bidendate nitrogenous ligand, a DMSO molecule, and three chloride anions (in the facial position) attached to a TlIII metal centre in a distorted octahedral environment. The stability of the complexes in DMSO is evident by a 203,205Tl–1H spin–spin coupling, determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Interestingly, six bond hydrogen–thallium coupling was observed with a coupling constant of 6JTlH = 20 Hz. The absorption and emission spectra of the complexes were investigated. These studies revealed that upon coordination to TlIII, the luminescent intensity is increased in comparison with the related unbound ligands.

The Fermi contact contribution to the nuclear spin-spin coupling constant of HD is calculated variationally. Instead of the delta-function a modified nonsingular contact spatial part is used. The self-coupling energy becomes finite and the variation of the whole second-order energy due to a non- singular first-order perturbed trial function can be carried out.

The solid-state 119Sn cross-polarization (CP) magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectra of a series of triaryltin chlorides of the form Ar3SnCl have been acquired. The indirect spin-spin coupling constants (J(119Sn-35Cl)), quadrupolar-dipolar shifts (d(119Sn-35Cl)), and the 119Sn chemical shift tensors were extracted. For the spectrum of triphenyltin chloride (I) the validity of the first-order perturbation approximation was tested by comparing results of both the perturbation and cubic-equation approaches and a variable-temperature NMR study undertaken to investigate the influence of the previously reported molecular motion in the solid. The X-ray crystal structures of the tris(o-tolyl)tin chloride (II) and tris(p-tolyl)tin chloride (IV) complexes have been examined. They belong to the monoclinic and triclinic space groups P21/n and P[Formula: see text], respectively, which are different from the previously reported tris(m-tolyl)tin chloride (III) complex, which crystallizes in the space group R3 and has threefold molecular symmetry. The structures and NMR properties of the complexes with meta-substituents are quite different from those with ortho- or para-substituents having axially symmetric shift tensors with small spans and larger J values.Key words: aryltin chlorides, magic angle spinning NMR, tin-chlorine spin-spin coupling, 119Sn chemical shift tensor, crystal structure.

Beryllium-9 (9Be) quadrupolar coupling and chemical shift tensor data are reported for bis(1-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-3,3,5,5-tetramethylpyrrolidine-2-ylidene)beryllium (Be(CAAC)2). These are the first such data for beryllium in a linear dicoordinate environment. The 9Be quadrupolar coupling constant, 2.36(0.02) MHz, is the largest recorded in the solid state to date for this isotope. The span of the beryllium chemical shift tensor, 22(2) ppm, covers about half of the known 9Be chemical shift range, and the isotropic 9Be chemical shift, 32.0(0.3) ppm, is the largest reported in the solid state to our knowledge. DFT calculations reproduce the experimental data well. A natural localized molecular orbital approach has been used to explain the origins and orientation of the beryllium electric field gradient tensor. The single-crystal X-ray structure of a second polymorph of Be(CAAC)2 is also reported. Inspection of the powder X-ray diffraction data shows that the new crystal structure is part of the bulk product next to another crystalline phase. Therefore, experimental X-ray powder data for the microcrystalline powder sample and the SSNMR data do not fully match either the originally reported crystal structure (Arrowsmith et al. Nat. Chem. 2016, 8, 890–894) or the new polymorph. The ability of solid-state NMR and powder X-ray diffraction to characterize powdered samples was thus particularly useful in this work.

The anisotropy of the indirect 31P,199Hg spin–spin coupling constant, ΔJ, in solid [HgP(o-tolyl)3(NO3)2]2 is obtained from an analysis of the 31P nuclear magnetic resonance powder pattern. The value of ΔJ, 5170 ± 250 Hz, is large and indicates that mechanisms other than the Fermi contact mechanism are important for this spin–spin coupling. The powder spectrum also indicates that the absolute sign of 1J(31P,199Hg) is positive.

AbstractBis(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide (BTSC), so-called “pseudo water” because of some analogies such as similar (group)electronegativities of Me3Si– vs. H– and –N=C=N– vs. –O–, may form two different kinds of “pseudo hydrates” of metals (M), i.e. M–N(SiMe3)=C=N(SiMe3) and M–N≡C–N(SiMe3)2, derived from its carbodiimide and cyanamide isomeric forms, respectively. With anhydrous AlCl3 in Me3SiCl solution BTSC was shown to be capable of forming both kinds of solvates, i.e. Cl3Al–N(SiMe3)–C≡N(SiMe3) (1) and ((Cl3Al)(Me3Si)NCN)3–Al–(N≡C–N(SiMe3)2)3 (2). Both compounds were isolated as crystalline solids, which undergo condensation reactions upon storage. By single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis the constitution of 1 was confirmed unambiguously, and quantum chemical calculations (B3LYP/6-311++g(d,p)) confirmed that compound 1 is 6 kcal mol−1 more stable than its hypothetical N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)cyanamide isomer Cl3Al–N≡C–N(SiMe3)2. Compound 1 represents the first crystallographically confirmed disilylcarbodiimide complex of a metal salt. The molecules of compound 2 are heavily disordered in the solid state (positional disorder of N≡C–N(SiMe3)2 vs. N≡C–N(SiMe3)(AlCl3) and positional disorder of SiMe3 vs. AlCl3 groups in the latter). Therefore, the identity of 2 was additionally confirmed by 13C, 15N, 27Al and 29Si CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy.
