The synthesis and physical properties of [(η3-Me(MeNPMe)4)Mo(CO)3]l are reported. Crystals of (η3-nonamethylcyclotetraphosphazanium-P,P,P)tricarbonylmolybdenum(0) iodide – acetonitrile (1:1) are orthorhombic, a = 13.1938(4), b = 13.7847(5), c = 29.281(2) Å, Z = 8, space group Pcab. The structure was solved by Patterson and Fourier techniques and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.030 and Rw = 0.034 for 2388 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The structure consists of discrete cations, anions, and solvent molecules. The complex cation has approximate mirror symmetry in the solid state, the Mo atom being coordinated to three phosphazane P atoms and three carbonyl ligands in a distorted octahedral arrangement. Important bond lengths (corrected for libration) are: Mo—P = 2.483(2), 2.439(2), and 2.474(2), mean Mo—C = 1.984(3), mean P—N = 1.710(11) for coordinated P and 1.669(5) Å for quaternized P. The stronger bonding of the cationic ligand to the metal relative to that of the neutral species (CH3NPCH3)4Mo(CO)3, and the strengthening of the ring bonds in both molecules relative to (CH3NPCH3)4, are discussed in terms of d-orbital contraction.

The synthesis and physical properties of the phosphazane complex [η3-(CH3PNCH3)4]Mo(CO)3 are reported. Crystals of (η3-octamethylcyclotetraphosphazane-P,P,P)tricarbonylmolybdenum(0) are monoclinic, a = 8.6898(9), b = 16.0987(8), c = 14.1156(17) Å, β = 98.321(6)°, Z = 4, space group Cc. The structure was solved by Patterson and Fourier syntheses and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.020 and Rw = 0.024 for 2286 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The molybdenum atom is coordinated to three phosphorus atoms of the (MePNMe)4 ligand and to three carbonyl ligands in a distorted octahedral geometry. The molecule has approximate mirror symmetry in the solid state. Important bond lengths (corrected for libration) are: Mo—P = 2.537(1), 2.467(1), and 2.513(1), Mo—C = 1.971(4), 2.002(4), and 1.978(4), mean P—N = 1.704(8) for coordinated P, 1.735(7) Å for uncoordinated P. The structural evidence indicates that the phosphazane is a weaker donor to Mo(CO)3 than to three sulphur atoms, and that coordination withdraws electron density from the fourth phosphorus atom. The complex is fluxional in solution.

The structure was solved by Patterson and Fourier syntheses and was reflned by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.028 and Rw = 0.046 for 3708 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The crystal structure consists of discrete molecules linked by N—H … O hydrogen bonds (N … O = 2.929(5) Å). The Mo atom is in a distorted octahedral environment with the η3-C7H7 ligand occupying one coordination site, trans to the amino nitrogen, as a π-donating ligand. Important bond distances (corrected for libration) are: Mo—O, 2.245(2), Mo—N(amino), 2.249(3), Mo—N(pyrazolyl), 2.270(3), Mo—C(O), 1.950(4) and 1.947(4), Mo—C(C7H7), 2.176(4), 2.364(4), and 2.380(4), Ga—O, 1.919(3), Ga—N, 1.984(3), and Ga—C, 1.982(5) and 1.983(5) Å. An unusual type of disorder is present in which a second image of the molecule, approximately mirrored by the plane y = 1/4, is in evidence at low occupancy.

The diperchlorate salts of the mono(β-amino ketone) 10-amino-4,4-dimethyl-5,8-diazadecan-2-one and of the bis(β-amino ketone) 4,4,12,12-tetramethyl-5,8,11-triazapentadecane-2,14-dione, ttp, have been prepared by reaction of the diperchlorate of 3-azapentane-1,5-diamine with acetone. The salt [ttpH2] (ClO4)2 has been used to prepare the six-coordinate complexes [Cu(ttp)(H2O)] (ClO4)2,1.5H2O and [Ni(ttp)(H2O)] (ClO4)2,H2O, and the five-coordinate [Cu(ttp)] (CIO,),. The complex [Cu(ttp)] (ClO4), reacts with ammonia, methylamine and ethylamine to form complexes of pentadentate β-amino ketone β-amino imine ligands. The structure of [Co(ttp)(H2O)] (ClO4)2,1.5H2O has been determined by X-ray diffractometry [space group P21/c, Z 4, a 797.5(2), b 1632.8(3), c 2236.4(3) pm, β 97.504(2)�, R 0.0749, Rw 0.0765 for 1678 reflections]. The complex cation has the bis(β-amino ketone) ttp acting as a pentadentate ligand, with the three nitrogen and one carbonyl oxygen atoms coplanar, and with oxygen of a water molecule completing distorted octahedral coordination about the cobalt(II) ion.

The structure consists of centrosymmetric [Au(SO3F)3]2 dimers containing two bidentate, symmetrically bridging and four monodentate, terminal SO3F ligands. The Au(III) ions have square-planar coordination geometry with bridging Au—O = 2.020(7) and 2.016(6) Å, and terminal Au—O = 1.959(7) and 1.956(9) Å. The dimeric [Au(SO3F)3]2 units are linked in the solid state by weak Au—O interactions (2.757(8) and 2.960(7) Å), resulting in a distorted octahedral coordination geometry about each gold atom. Key words: gold(III) tris(fluorosulfate), crystal structure.

AbstractTreatment of THF solutions containing the rhodium(II) complex trans-[RhCl2(PtBu2Ph)2] (1) with [Fe2(CO)9] in the same solvent resulted in the formation of the Vaska-type complex trans-[RhCl(CO)(PtBu2Ph)2] (2) in high yield. The title complex 2 was obtained as pale yellow crystals, characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy, as well as by microanalyses. Additionally, the molecular structure of 2 has been established by X-ray crystallography. As often reported for similar constituted compounds, the chlorido and carbonyl ligands in crystals of 2 are strongly disordered.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Re(C12H8N2)(C12H12N2)(CO)3]PF6.·CH3CN, contains one cation, one hexafluoridophosphate anion and one acetonitrile solvent molecule. The ReIion is coordinated by two N atoms from the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand and one N atom from the 1,2-bis(pyridin-4-yl)ethane ligand [mean Re—N = 2.191 (15) Å] and by three carbonyl ligands [mean Re—C = 1.926 (3) Å] in a distorted octahedral geometry. The electrostatic forces and weak C—H...F(O) hydrogen bonds pack cations and anions into the crystal with voids of 82 Å3, which are filled by solvent molecules. The crystal packing exhibits short intermolecular O...O distance of 2.795 (5) Å between two cations related by inversion.
