CRYSTAL-STRUCTURES OF LN(NO3)(3) (LN=EU,LU) COMPLEXES WITH A CROWN-ETHER (16-CROWN-5)

The crystal structures of Ln(NO3)(3)(Ln = Eu,Lu) complexes with 16-crown-5 are reported. In [Eu(NO3)(2)(CH3CN)(16-crown-5)][Eu(NO3)(4)(H2O)2].1/2(16-crown-5) one Eu-III ion is coordinated to two bidentate nitrate ions, one acetonitrile molecule and five o

SYNTHESES, CHARACTERIZATION AND CRYSTAL-STRUCTURES OF THE COMPLEXES OF RARE-EARTH WITH O-CHLOROBENZOIC ACID

REL3.H2O (RE=Y, La is similar to Lu; HL = o-chlorobenzoic acid) were synthesized. Their thermal decomposition and IR spectra were studied. The crystal structures of the complexes of neodymium, terbium and lutetium were determined by X-ray diffraction method. They crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/n and show infinite chain structures. The coordination numbers of rare earth ions are nine.

INFRARED-SPECTRA OF DIMETHYLPHOSPHATE LANTHANIDE COMPLEXES

The infrared spectra of the crystalline solid samples of rare earth(III) dimethylphosphates Ln(DMP)3 (Ln = La, Ce, Nd) in the range 4000-100 cm-1 are discussed. It is shown that the spectra may be treated by dividing Ln(DMP)3 into two parts, an OP(OCH3)2O bridge and a LnO6 distortion octahedron. The absorption bands above 500 cm-1 may be clearly assigned. However, vibrational assignments in the far-infrared region are tentative.

THE CLEAVAGE REACTION OF THE MO-MO TRIPLE BOND - THE CRYSTAL-STRUCTURES OF MOLYBDENUM COMPLEXES [CPMO(CO)(2)(C(5)H(4)NS)], [CPMO(CO)(2)(C(9)H(6)NS)]O=PPH(3) AND [CPMO(CO)(2)(S(2)CNME(2)]

The reactions of [Cp2Mo2(CO)4] (1) with 2,2'-dipyridyl disulphide (C5H4NS-)2, 8,8'-diquinolyl disulphide (C9H6NS-)2 and tetramethyl thiuram disulphide (Me2NC(S)S-)2 in toluene solution resulted in the cleavage of the Mo-Mo triple bond to yield molybdenum complexes [CpMo(CO)2(C5H4NS)] (2), [CpMo(CO)2(C9H6NS)] (3) and [CpMo(CO)2(S2CNMe2)] (4), respectively. The molecular structures of 2, 3 . O=PPh3 and 4 were determined by X-ray diffraction studies. Crystals of 2 are monoclinic, space group P2(1)/n, with Z = 4, in a unit cell of dimensions a = 6.448(1), b = 12.616(2), c = 14.772(2) angstrom, beta = 92.85(1)-degrees. The structure was refined to R = 0.028 and R(w) = 0.039 for 1357 observed reflections. Crystals of 3 . O=PPh3 are triclinic, space group P1BAR, with Z = 2, in a unit cell of dimensions a = 11.351(3), b = 13.409(3), c = 9.895(2) angstrom, alpha = 94.59(2), beta = 90.35(2), gamma = 78.07(2)-degrees. The structure was refined to R = 0.033 and R(w) = 0.037 for 3260 observed reflections. Crystals of 4 are monoclinic, space group P2(1)/a and Z = 4 with a = 12.468(5), b = 7.637(2), c = 13.135(4) angstrom, beta = 96.62(3). The structure was refined to R = 0.032 and R(w) = 0.042 for 1698 observed reflections. Each of complexes 2-4 contains a cyclopentadienyl ligand, a cis pair of carbonyls and a chelate ligand (S,N donor or S,S donor). All the compounds have distorted square-pyramid structures.
