Naked deltahedral silicon clusters in solution: synthesis and characterization of Si9(3-) and Si5(2-).
نویسندگان
چکیده
Elusive for over 100 years, deltahedral Zintl ions of silicon are finally synthesized and structurally characterized. The two clusters reported here, Si93- and Si52-, are analogous to known clusters of the heavier members of this group: Ge, Sn, and Pb.

Ligand-free deltahedral clusters of silicon in solution: synthesis, structure, and electrochemistry of Si9(2-).
Deltahedral nine-atom clusters of silicon, Si(9)(2-), were synthesized by mild oxidation of a liquid ammonia solution of K(12)Si(17) with Ph(3)GeCl in the presence of 18-crown-6 (1,4,7,10,13,16-hexaoxacyclooctadecane) or 2,2,2-crypt (4,7,13,16,21,24-hexaoxa-1,10-diazabicyclo[8.8.8]hexacosane). The clusters were structurally characterized in [K(18-crown-6)](2)Si(9).C(5)H(5)N (yellow; orthorhombi...
متن کاملWater compatibility and organic transformations of organo-Zintl deltahedral clusters.
We report the remarkable stability of di-substituted organo-Zintl deltahedral clusters in the presence of water. This has been exploited in a reaction at the organic substituents of the cluster which produces water as a by-product. Also reported are the synthesis, characterization, and crystal structure of [K-krypt](2)[Ge(9)-(CH=CH-CH(2)NH(2))(2)] involved in the reaction.
متن کاملRational synthesis of [Ge9{Si(SiMe3)3}3]- from its parent Zintl ion Ge9(4-).
Reported is the first rational synthesis of a trisubstituted deltahedral Zintl ion, [Ge(9){Si(SiMe(3))(3)}(3)](-) in this case, by the addition of the three substituents in a reaction of the parent naked deltahedral Zintl ion Ge(9)(4-) with {(Me(3)Si)(3)Si}Cl. The new species were crystallized and structurally characterized in [K(2,2,2-crypt)](2)[Ge(9){Si(SiMe(3))(3)}(3)] (monoclinic, P2(1)/c, ...
متن کاملTri-metallic deltahedral Zintl ions: experimental and theoretical studies of the novel dimer [(Sn6Ge2Bi)2]4-.
We report the synthesis, characterization, and computational rationalization of the first trimetallic deltahedral Zintl ions. The novel nine-atom clusters were structurally characterized as dimers of [(Sn(6)Ge(2)Bi)(2)](4-) with Ge-Ge intercluster bonds. They are synthesized either by reacting bimetallic clusters (Sn(9-x)Ge(x))(4-) with BiPh(3) or by direct extraction from precursors with nomin...
متن کاملAlkylation of Deltahedral Zintl clusters: synthesis of [R-Ge9-Ge9-R]4- (R = tBu, sBu, nBu, tAm and structure of [tBu-Ge9-Ge9-tBu]4-.
Reactions of nine-atom deltahedral clusters (Zintl ions) of germanium, Ge9n- (n = 2, 3, 4), with alkyl chlorides, RCl (R = tBu, nBu, sBu, tAm), yielded the corresponding dialkylated dimers of Ge9 clusters [R-Ge9-Ge9-R]4-. The tBu derivative with [K(2,2,2-crypt)]+ countercations was characterized in the solid state by single-crystal X-ray diffraction as [K(2,2,2-crypt)]4[tBu-Ge9-Ge9-tBu].7en (mo...
