Item Open Access Confirmation of siderazot, Fe3N1.33, the only terrestrial nitride mineral(2021) Bette, Sebastian; Theye, Thomas; Bernhardt, Heinz-Jürgen; Clark, William P.; Niewa, RainerSiderazot, the only terrestrial nitride mineral, was reported only once in 1876 to occur as coating on volcanic rocks in a fumarolic environment from Mt. Etna and, to date, has been neither confirmed nor structurally characterized. We have studied the holotype sample from the Natural History Museum, London, UK, originally collected by O. Silvestri in 1874, and present siderazot with epsilon-Fe3N-type crystal structure and composition of Fe3N1.33(7) according to crystal structure Rietveld refinements, in good agreement with electron microprobe analyses. Crystal structure data, chemical composition, and Raman and reflectance measurements are reported. Possible formation conditions are derived from composition and phase stability data according to synthetic samples.Item Open Access Mixed valency vs radical bridge formulation in symmetrically and asymmetrically ligated diruthenium complexes(2022) Mondal, Sudipta; Schwederski, Brigitte; Záliš, Stanislav; Kaim, WolfgangThe asymmetrical dinuclear [{(trpy*)Ru}2(μ‐adc‐Salph)Cl](PF6) 1(PF6), trpy*=4,4’,4”‐tri‐tert‐butyl‐2,6,2’,6”‐terpyridine, adc‐Salph=1‐benzoyl‐2‐salicyloylhydrazido(3‐), and the related symmetrical dinuclear [{Cl(trpy*)Ru}2(μ,η2 : η2‐adc‐Ph)](PF6) 2(PF6), adc‐Ph=1,2‐bis(benzoyl)hydrazido(2‐), were synthesized and structurally characterized. Both paramagnetic compounds were compared with the previously reported symmetrical [{(trpy*)Ru}2(μ,η3 : η3‐adc‐Sal)](PF6) 3(PF6) containing the bis‐tridentate bridge 1,2‐bis(salicyloyl)hydrazido(4‐). Molecular structures and magnetic resonance features (1H NMR, EPR) indicate spin density distribution over the metal(s) and the bridging ligand. Reversible one‐electron reduction and oxidation were possible in all instances yielding comproportionation constants Kc of about 109 for the paramagnetic intermediates 1+-3+. Structural results, spin density distribution and UV‐Vis‐NIR spectroelectrochemistry were analyzed for 1+ with the help of TD‐DFT calculations for a model compound (tert‐Bu→Me). Intense absorptions around λmax=1450-1650 nm for the cations were assigned to mixed metal/ligand transitions with significant inter‐valence charge transfer (IVCT) character. For both the symmetrical and asymmetrical arrangements the cationic intermediates can be described as considerably mixed metal/ligand systems.Item Open Access The reduced nitridogermanates(III) Ca6[Ge2N6] and Sr6[Ge2N6] with Ge-Ge bonds(2021) Link, Lukas; Pathak, Manisha; Jach, Franziska; Koželj, Primoz; Ormeci, Alim; Höhn, Peter; Niewa, RainerThe first nitridogermanates(III) Ca6[Ge2N6] and Sr6[Ge2N6] were synthesized from sodium flux and structurally characterized by powder and single crystal X‐ray diffraction, respectively. They crystallize isostructurally to each other and homeotypic to Ca6[Cr2N6]H in space group R3‾. They feature unprecedented, mutually isolated, ethane‐like [GeIII2N6]12- anions in a staggered conformation. The compounds are semiconductors according to resistivity measurements and electronic structure calculations, yielding band gaps of 1.1 eV for Ca6[Ge2N6] and 0.2 eV for Sr6[Ge2N6].Item Open Access Mesoionic imines (MIIs) : strong donors and versatile ligands for transition metals and main group substrates(2022) Rudolf, Richard; Neuman, Nicolás I.; Walter, Robert R. M.; Ringenberg, Mark. R.; Sarkar, BiprajitWe report the synthesis and the reactivity of 1,2,3‐triazolin‐5‐imine type mesoionic imines (MIIs). The MIIs are accessible by a base‐mediated cycloaddition between a substituted acetonitrile and an aromatic azide, methylation by established routes and subsequent deprotonation. C=O‐stretching frequencies in MII-CO2 and -Rh(CO)2Cl complexes were used to determine the overall donor strength. The MIIs are stronger donors than the N‐heterocyclic imines (NHIs). MIIs are excellent ligands for main group elements and transition metals in which they display substituent‐induced fluorine‐specific interactions and undergo C-H activation. DFT calculations gave insights into the frontier orbitals of the MIIs. The calculations predict a relatively small HOMO-LUMO gap compared to other related ligands. MIIs are potentially able to act as both π‐donor and π‐acceptor ligands. This report highlights the potential of MIIs to display exciting properties with a huge potential for future development.Item Open Access Indium ammoniates from ammonothermal synthesis : InAlF6(NH3)2, [In(NH3)6][AlF6], and [In2F(NH3)10]2[SiF6]5 ∙ 2 NH3(2021) Becker, Peter; Cekovski, Toni Boris; Niewa, RainerThe ammonothermal synthesis of three ammoniates of indium, namely InAlF6(NH3)2, [In(NH3)6][AlF6], and [In2F(NH3)10]2[SiF6]5 ∙ 2 NH3 was successful from near-ammononeutral conditions in the presence of fluoride ions. Initially, all these compounds were obtained upon corrosion of the applied liner and crucible material Si3N4, which also contains small amounts of aluminum. The syntheses were performed in supercritical ammonia (T = 753 K, p up to 307 MPa). The crystal structures were solved and refined from single crystal X-ray diffraction intensity data. InAlF6(NH3)2 crystallizes as a typical layer-type structure with corner-sharing [InF4(NH3)2]- and [AlF6]3- octahedra. [In(NH3)6][AlF6] features isolated [In(NH3)6]3+ and [AlF6]3- octahedra. The crystal structure of [In2F(NH3)10]2[SiF6]5 ∙ 2 NH3 contains [(NH3)5In-F-In(NH3)5]5+ octahedra doubles next to [SiF6]2- octahedra and ammonia molecules. All intermediates have strong hydrogen bonding systems. The results from vibrational spectroscopy are reported.Item Open Access New crystal structures of rare‐earth metal(III) oxotellurates(IV) RE2Te3O9: A1‐type (RE=La, Ce) and A2‐type (RE=Pr, Nd)(2021) Chou, Sheng‐Chun; Höss, Patrick; Russ, Philip L.; Strobel, Sabine; Schleid, ThomasThe new rare-earth metal(III) oxotellurates(IV) RE2Te3O9 (RE=La-Nd) of the so far unknown A-type structure can be obtained as needle-shaped single crystals through solid-state reactions of the corresponding binary oxides. Their crystal structures were determined as A1-type for RE=La and Ce or A2-type for RE=Pr and Nd by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Both structure types crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system, but in two different non-centrosymmetric space groups: the A1-type with Z=8 in space group P21 (La2Te3O9: a=569.54(3), b=2230.12(13), c=1464.71(4) pm, β=101.205(3)°; Ce2Te3O9: a=567.02(3), b=2222.61(13), c=1457.13(9) pm, β=101.134(3)°) or the A2-type with Z=16 in space group Cc (Pr2Te3O9: a=2838.61(16), b=563.89(3), c=2522.08(15) pm, β=118.816(3)°; Nd2Te3O9: a=2826.38(16), b=561.47(3), c=2511.94(15) pm, β=118.841(3)°). In spite of the differences in the unit-cell parameters and the symmetry, both structures consist of quite similar fundamental building blocks (FBBs) consisting of eight crystallographically distinct rare-earth metal-oxygen polyhedra with C.N.(RE3+) from seven to nine and always twelve different ψ1-tetrahedral oxotellurate(IV) anions [TeO3]2-, which show a high number of secondary bonding interactions (SBIs) with each other in all four cases.Item Open Access On the thermal dimorphy of the strontium perrhenate Sr[ReO4]2(2024) Conrad, Maurice; Bette, Sebastian; Dinnebier, Robert E.; Schleid, ThomasHygroscopic single crystals of a new hexagonal high‐temperature modification of Sr[ReO4]2 were prepared from a melt of Sr[ReO4]2 ⋅ H2O and SrCl2 ⋅ 6 H2O. The structure analysis of the obtained crystals by X‐ray diffraction revealed that the title compound crystallizes in the ThCd[MoO4]3‐type structure with the hexagonal space group P63/m and the lattice parameters a=1023.81(7) pm and c=646.92(4) pm (c/a=0.632) for Z=2 in its quenchable high‐temperature form. Two crystallographically independent Sr2+ cations are coordinated by oxygen atoms forming either octahedra or tricapped trigonal prisms, whereas the Re7+ cations are found in the centers of discrete tetrahedral meta‐perrhenate units [ReO4]-. Temperature‐dependent in‐situ PXRD studies of dry powder samples of Sr[ReO4]2 exhibited its thermal dimorphy with a phase‐transition temperature at 500-550 °C from literature‐known m‐Sr[ReO4]2 into the newly discovered h‐Sr[ReO4]2 (hexagonal).Item Open Access Luminescence properties of Y3F[Si3O10]:Ln3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb, Er) with thalenite-type host lattice and crystal structure of Tm3F[Si3O10](2023) Schäfer, Marion C.; Petter, Michael; Hartenbach, Ingo; Locke, Ralf J. C.; Zhang, Shuang; Wickleder, Claudia; Schleid, ThomasWith Tm3F[Si3O10], a new representative of the Ln3F[Si3O10] series could be synthesized by the reaction of Tm2O3, TmF3 and SiO2 (molar ratio: 1:1:3), applying an excess of CsBr as a fluxing agent in gas-tightly sealed platinum crucibles for eight days at 750 °C, and designed to yield Tm3F3[Si3O9] or Cs2TmF[Si4O10]. Single crystals of Tm3F[Si3O10] (monoclinic, P21/n; a = 725.04(6), b = 1102.43(9), c = 1032.57(8) pm, β = 97.185(7)°; Z = 4) appear as pale celadon, transparent, air- and water-resistant rhombic plates. According to its thalenite-type structure, Tm3F[Si3O10] contains catena-trisilicate anions [Si3O10]8− and triangular [FTm3]8+ cations. The three crystallographically different Tm3+ cations are coordinated by seven plus one (Tm1) or only seven anions (Tm2 and Tm3) exhibiting a single F- anion for each polyhedron, additional to the majority of O2- anions. Furthermore, the luminescence properties of the isotypic colorless compound Y3F[Si3O10] doped with Eu3+ (red emission), Tb3+ (green emission) and Er3+ (yellow and infrared emission), respectively, are reported in presenting their different excitation and emission spectra.Item Open Access Annellated 1,3,4,2-triazaphospholenes-simple modular synthesis and a first exploration of ligand properties(2022) Richter, Ferdinand; Birchall, Nicholas; Feil, Christoph M.; Nieger, Martin; Gudat, DietrichThe successful use of 1,3,4,2-triazaphospholenes (TAPs) as organo-catalysts stresses the need for efficient synthetic routes to these molecules. In this study, we establish the [1 + 4]-cycloaddition of PBr3 to azo-pyridines as a new approach to preparing pyrido-annellated TAPs in a single step from easily available precursors. The modular assembly of the azo-component via condensation of primary amines and nitroso compounds along with the feasibility of post-functionalization at the P-Br bond under conservation of the heterocyclic structure allows, in principle, to address a wide range of target molecules, which is illustrated by prototypical examples. The successful synthesis of a transition metal complex confirms for the first time the ability of a TAP to act as a P-donor ligand. Crystallographic studies suggest that hyperconjugation effects and intermolecular interactions induce a qualitatively similar ionic polarization of the P-Br bonds in TAPs as in better known isoelectronic diazaphospholenes.Item Open Access Darstellung und Reaktivität N-heterozyklischer Phosphenium-Carbonylkomplexe des Eisens und Chroms(2020) Feil, Christoph Matthias; Gudat, Dietrich (Prof. Dr.)
