Molybdenumnitridetrichloride-2,3,3-trichloroacrylnitrile, [MoNCl3·NC—C2Cl3]2. Synthesis, IR spectrum, and crystal structure
- [MONCl3 · NC - C2Cl3]2 has been prepared by the reaction of MONCl3 with trichloromethyl isocyanidedichloride, CCl3NCCl2 , in CH2Cl2 suspension. The compound forms redbrown. mois-ture sensitive crystals, which were characterized by their IR spectrum as well as by a crystal structure determination (2482 independent observed reflexions, R = 0.048). Crystal data (-70 °C): Space group P21/c, Z = 2, a = 674.2(2); b = 2128.2(11); c = 786.0(4) pm: β = 102.81(3)°. [MONCl3 • NC-C2Cl3]2 forms centrosymmetric dimeric molecules via chloro bridges with Mo-Cl bond lengths of 240.7 and 276.0 pm. The longer MoCl bond of the MOCl2MO ring is caused by the trans influence of the nitride ligand; the MoN bond length of 167 pm corresponds with a triple bond. The 2,3,3-trichloroacrylnitrile ligand is bonded by its nitrogen atom with a bond length of Mo -N = 216 pm; the Mo-N≡C-C sequence is almost linear with a remarkable short C-C bond of 143.0 pm.
