Abstract A detailed x-ray analysis has shown that the molecule of β-isoprene sulfone has a heterocyclic structure, in which resonance occurs between the three carbon-carbon bonds of the C4S ring. The bond lengths are C—C (in the ring) 1.41 a., C (ring)—C (methyl) 1.54 a., C—S 1.75 a., and S—O 1.44 a., all ± 0.02 a.; the distribution of the four sulfur bonds is approximately tetrahedal.

The synthesis of RbHCN2 was carried out by reaction of cyanamide with rubidium amide in liquid ammonia. The crystal structure has been determinedo by x-ray powder methods (orthorhombic, P21,21,21, a = 7.299(1), b = 9.435(1), c = 9.420(1) Å; Z = 8). The anion is slightly bent (174°) and exhibits two different bond lengths (C-N: 1.17, HN-C: 1.31 Å).

The reaction of tungsten hexachloride with Se4N2 leads to [WCl4(NSeCl)]2, which reacts with pyridine to form [WCl4(NSeCl)Py], and with tetraphenylphosphonium chloride to form PPh4[WCl5(NSeCl)], which was characterized by an X-ray structure determination. Space group P21, Z = 2, 1657 observed unique reflections, R = 0.074, wR = 0.061. Lattice dimensions at —80 C: a = 710.7(1), b = 2217.9(4), c = 953.6(2) pm; β = 111.93(3) . The [WCl5(NSeCl)]- ion possesses an almost linear WNSe group with bond lengths WN = 188 pm, corresponding to a double bond, and NSe = 200 pm.

Abstract The pyridine complexes of cyclo-thiazeno vanadium dichloride, [VCl2(N3S2)py] and [VCl2(N3S2)(py)2] were synthesized by reactions of polymeric VCl2(N3S2) with varying amounts of pyridine in CH2Cl2. The compounds were characterized by their IR spectra as well as by their 51V NM R spectra. The crystal structure of [VCl2(N3S2)(C5H5N)] was determined by means of X-ray diffraction (1582 independent observed reflexions, R = 0.031). Crystal data: orthorhombic, space group Pnma, a = 1372, b - 2261, c - 1068 pm, Z = 12. In the lattice there are two monomeric, crystallographically independent molecules [VCl2(N3S2)(C5H5N)], which differ only slightly. The vanadium atoms have a trigonal bipyramidal coordination with the N atom of the pyridine molecule and one chlorine atom in apical positions, and with one chlorine atom and the N atoms of the cyclo-thiazeno ligand in equatorial positions. The VN bond lengths of the planar VN3S2 ring of 174 pm correspond to double bonds

Triphenylmethylphosphonium nitrite and formate have been prepared by the reaction of [PPh3Me]I with silver nitrite, and lead formate, respectively, in aqueous solutions. [PPh3Me]NO2 (1) forms pale yellow crystals, and [PPh3Me]HCO2·H2O (2) forms white crystals. Both compounds are soluble in water, ethanol, and dichloromethane. In moist air 2 is hydrated to yield [PPh3Me]HCO2·2H2O (3). The compounds were characterized by their IR spectra, 1 and 2 also by X-ray crystal structure determinations.[PPh3Me]NO2 (1): space group P21/n, Z = 4, 2088 independent observed reflexions, R = 0.062.

AbstractA simple and high-yield preparation of the pentamethylcyclopentadienyl vanadium(IV) trihalides Cp*VX3 (X = CL, Br, I) from Cp*V(CO)4 as well as their conversion into the oxo-vanadium(V) compounds Cp*VOX2 (X = CL, Br) and [Cp*VOX]2(μ-O) (X = CL, Br, I) are described. The equilibrium between the two fluoride species Cp*VOF2 and [Cp*VOF]2(μ-O) has also been investigated. The complexes are characterized by their NMR (51V, l3C, 1H), IR, and mass spectra. The crystal structure of the binuclear chloro-oxo complex [Cp*VOCl]2(μ-O) has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The molecules contain two [Cp*VOCl] units combined via a bent oxo bridge (V-O-V angle of 142.2(2)°). The vanadium-oxygen bond lengths are 157.6(8) and 179.4(1) pm for the terminal and the bridging oxo ligands, respectively, corresponding to double and single bonds.

AbstractPolycrystalline samples of La- and Lu-agardite with the composition RECu6(OH)6(AsO4)3 · n H2O (RE = La, Lu; n≈3) have been prepared and the structure of the products was determined by X-ray powder diffraction studies. The characterization has been complemented by Raman and UV/Vis spectroscopic, magnetic and TGA investigations. DFT calculations support the conclusions drawn from the experiments. The arsenates RECu6(OH)6(AsO4)3 · n H2O (RE = La, Lu; n≈3) are isostructural with the mineral mixite and crystallize with a hexagonal structure which contains ribbons of edge-sharing [CuO5] square-pyramids extending along the hexagonal axis. They are interconnected via (AsO4)3− groups to form hexagonal tubes of about 10 Å inner diameter. Such zeolite-like tubes host water molecules, which can be reversibly removed at moderate temperatures (T≈100°C). Like in mixite and YCu6(OH)6(AsO4)3 · 3 H2O, the Cu2+ cations in RECu6(OH)6(AsO4)3 · n H2O (RE = La, Lu; n≈3) exhibit low-dimensional antiferromagnetic properties, which are subject to changes in the Cu–O–Cu bond lengths and angles due to the lanthanide contraction.

Abstract Bis(triethylphosphine)(η4-tetraphenylcyclobutadiene)nickel (4) was synthesized by the reduction of (η4-tetraphenylcyclobutadiene)nickel(II)bromide (3) with t-butyllithium in the presence of Et3P, and its structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. Furthermore, its reactivity towards CO, CH3CO2H, PhC≡CPh, LiAlH4 and O2 were investigated. 1,1-Bis(triethylphos-phine)-2,3,4,5-tetraphenylnickelole (14) was synthesized from (E,E)-1,4-dilithio-1,2,3,4-tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene (15) and bis(triethylphosphine)nickel(II)bromide. Since the resulting crystals of the nickelole were not suitable for X-ray structure determination, the compound was characterized by elemental analyses, spectral data and carbonylation to yield tetraphenylcyclo-pentadienone (6).Analogous reductions of (η4 -tetraphenylcyclobutadiene)nickel(II)bromide (3) in the presence of Ph3P or Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2 , followed by carbonylation, led to 6 in 40% yield, demonstrating that about half of the cyclobutadiene rings in 3 undergo cleavage upon reduction to give the nickelole.Reactions of the dilithium reagent 15 with NiBr2 complexed with Me2PCH2CH2PMe2 ,Ph3P or Et2PCH2CH2PEt2 , led to the formation of thermolabile nickeloles, as demonstrated by carbonylàtion which yielded 6. Warming of the nickeloles and subsequent treatment with CH3CO2H led to the formation of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octaphenyl-1,3,5,7-octatetraene (8) and, in one case, octaphenyl-cyclooctatetraene (5).The relevance of these findings to the mechanism of the Reppe nickel-catalyzed oligomerization of alkynes is discussed.

The crystal structures of [Cu(Pme3)4]X (X = Cl , Br, I) and of [M(PPh3)4] [PF6] (M = Cu, Ag) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K. The former compounds contain nearly tetrahedral [Cu(PMe3)4]+ ions on sites of m symmetry with mean Cu-P bond lengths of 2.270, 2.271 and 2.278 Ǻ for X = Cl , Br and I respectively. The latter compounds contain [M(PPh3)4]+ ions on sites of 3 symmetry. In the M =Ag complex the coordination environment is close to tetrahedral, but in the M =Cu complex the length of the axial Cu-P bond [2.465(2)Ǻ] is significantly shorter than that of the off-axis bonds [2.566(2)Ǻ]. Possible reasons for this are discussed.
