چکیده

Single crystals of In2.24(N CN )3 and N aIn(NCN)2 can be synthesized from a reaction be­ tween InBr and NaCN at 400 °C, followed by chemical transport at 400-500 °C. The X-ray crystal structure determinations of In2.24(NCN)3 (rhombohedral R 3c, a = 606.09(4), c 2884.4(2) pm, Z = 6) and NaIn(NCN)2 (orthorhombic Cmcm, a = 961.30(6), b = 716.84(5), c = 603.65(4) pm, Z = 4) reveal ionic layer structures built from sheets of cationic and anionic (cyanamide) motifs. While NaIn(NCN)2 contains In3+ and Na+ ions, In2 24(NCN)3 is a mixedvalence compound, incorporating a monovalent In+ ion besides trivalent indium. The NCN2~ units of both In2,24(NCN)3 and NaIn(NCN)2 reflect perfect D xll point group symmetry within the limits of experimental accuracy. Furthermore, an evaluation of all presently available crystallographic data on metal cyanamide crystal structures manifests that there is no evi­ dence for a non-centrosymmetric description of any of these. Likewise, we propose an alter­ native centrosymmetric structural model for lead cyanamide, PbNCN, and question the evi­ dence of the unsymmetrical, non-Dxh shaped cyanamide anion in the latter structure.

Mono N,C,N-pincer complexes of titanium, vanadium and niobium. Synthesis, structure and catalytic activity in olefin polymerisation.

Transmetallation of 4,4'-bis{(2,6-bis[(dimethylamino)methyl]phenylgold)diphenyl-phosphino}biphenyl (3) with MCl(4) (M = Ti, NbCl, V) in benzene gave the corresponding transition metal pincer complexes (4) and insoluble 4,4'-bis[P-(chloro gold(I))diphenylphosphino]biphenyl (2), which can be quantitatively recovered and recycled. Interestingly, 3 did not react with TiCl(3). However, reaction of 2...

Catalytic Formation and Crystal Structure of Cyanoguanylurea H2NC(=O)NHC(NH2)NCN

The ion exchange reaction between ammonium cyanoureate NH4[H2NC(=O)NCN] and zinc chloride yielded single crystals of the urea derivative cyanoguanylurea H2NC(=O)NHC(NH2)NCN, which was obtained as a by-product alongside zinc cyanoureate and traces of ammonium chloride. It is assumed that owing to its Lewis and Brønsted acidity, the hydrated Zn2+ ion acts as a catalyst, promoting the degradation ...

Direct measurements of the high temperature rate constants of the reactions NCN + O, NCN + NCN, and NCN + M.

The rate constant of the reaction NCN + O has been directly measured for the first time. According to the revised Fenimore mechanism, which is initiated by the NCN forming reaction CH + N(2)→ NCN + H, this reaction plays a key role for prompt NO(x) formation in flames. NCN radicals and O atoms have been quantitatively generated by the pyrolysis of NCN(3) and N(2)O, respectively. NCN concentrati...

Mono(NCN-pincer palladium)-metalloporphyrin catalysts: evidence for supramolecular bimetallic catalysis.

The synthesis and catalytic properties of ditopic mono-pincer-mono-porphyrin complexes were investigated. The statistical Adler condensation reaction of 3,5-bis(methoxymethyl)-4-bromo-benzaldehyde, p-tolylaldehyde, and pyrrole, furnished an AB(3)-type tetraphenylporphyrin, containing three meso-p-tolyl groups and one meso-3,5-bis(methoxymethyl)-4-bromophenyl group. This material was converted i...
