Abstract

The crystal structure of the cluster complex salt, (C6H13N2)4[Nb6(NCS)6Cl12] or (H-DABCO)4[Nb6Cl12(NCS)6] (DABCO = tri­ethyl­enedi­amine or 1,4-di­aza­bicyclo­[2.2.2]octa­ne), comprises octa­hedral Nb6 cluster cores, which are μ2-coordinated by 12 chloride ligands (bridging the octa­hedral edges, inner ligand sphere). Furthermore, each Nb atom is N-bonded to a terminal thio­cyanate ligand (outer ligand sphere). The discrete clusters carry a charge of −4, which is compensated by four monoprotonated DABCO mol­ecules. These are arranged in rows, which are N—H⋯Cl and N—H⋯N hydrogen bonded to the anions and among each other. graphic file with name x-08-x230398-scheme1-3D1.jpg

Structure description

Cluster complexes with octa­hedral cores of electron-poor transition metals, exhibiting strong metal–metal bonds, have been investigated for many decades (Braunstein et al., 1999; Cotton, 1964; Dehnen, 2017; Janiak et al., 2012; Simon, 1988; Vaughan et al., 1950). Starting from [Nb6Cl12(CH3OH)4(OCH3)2]·DABCO·0.66CH2Cl2 (Sperlich & Köckerling, 2021), the title compound was obtained by ligand-exchange reactions with thio­cyanate salts in methanol. The crystal structure of the title compound consists of discrete [Nb6Cl12(NCS)6]4− cluster anions and (H-DABCO)+ cations. The Nb atoms of the cluster anions are arranged octa­hedrally. The octa­hedral edges are μ 2-bridged by Cl ligands and the exo sites occupied by the N-binding NCS ligands. Two symmetry-independent cluster units are present in the unit cell. One unit is located at the Wyckoff site 9e with point-group symmetry Inline graphic , the other at site 3a with point-group symmetry Inline graphic . of the space group R Inline graphic . The cations are arranged in N—H⋯Cl and N—H⋯N hydrogen-bonded rows of four protonated DABCO mol­ecules between two cluster units. Two H-DABCO cations (comprising atoms N7, N8, and N9, N10) are situated on a threefold rotation axis, and one H-DABCO cation (comprising N11, N12) is statistically disordered over two sets of sites. The four protons per cationic row are statistically attached to the five possible sites. Selected hydrogen bonds are listed in Table 1. The resulting structural arrangement is shown in Fig. 1. The inter­atomic distances in the individual cations and anions are found in the expected regions. For both cluster units they are in the range of Nb6 cluster compounds with 16 cluster-based electrons, in line with the charge of −4. Comparable A 4[Nb6Cl12(NCS)6] salts with the same discrete cluster anion have been reported for A = K, Rb, and NH4 (Reckeweg & Meyer, 1996), Ph4P (Flemming et al., 2009), and Cs (Naumov et al., 2003). Fig. 2 shows the hexa­gonal packing of the cluster units with inter­mediate H-DABCO cations. Starting from compounds with such discrete iso-thio­cyanato ligated cluster units, cluster network compounds have already been synthesized (Pigorsch & Köckerling, 2016).

Synthesis and crystallization

The cluster compound [Nb6Cl12(CH3OH)4(OCH3)2]·DABCO·0.66CH2Cl2 was used as starting material (Sperlich & Köckerling, 2021). In a glass vial of 4 ml volume, 20 mg (15.56 µmol) of the precursor, 9 mg (93.37 µmol) of potassium thio­cyanate, KSCN, 12 mg (157.64 µmol) of ammonium thio­cyanate, (NH4)SCN, and 1 ml of methanol were filled. The vial was placed in a sand bath at 313 K. After one day it was taken out of the sand bath and allowed to stand untouched for several days at room temperature. During this time, the title compound crystallized from the reaction mixture in the form of black crystals (Fig. 3). For analytically pure samples, the crystals were filtered from the solution and were washed with anhydrous ethanol and anhydrous methyl­ene chloride. Yields were up to 80%.

Refinement

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 2. The sulfur atoms of two thio­cyanato groups (S2 and S3) are disordered over two sets of sites, both in a ratio of 0.51 (3):0.49 (3). One of the four H-DABCO units (comprising atoms N11 and N12) is equally disordered over two sets of sites, denoted as A and B.

Special details

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.
Refinement. C-and N-bound hydrogen atoms were placed on idealized positions and refined using a riding models.
