Abstract
The crystal structure of trans-(Ph3PNPPh3)2[OsO2(CN)2(OCH3)]2 (triclinic, space group P1̄, a = 11.816(2), b = 13.480(3), c = 13.610(5) Å, α = 83.46(2), ß = 77.09(2), γ = 71.06(2)°, Z = 1) has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The IR and Raman spectra of the (n-Bu4N)-salts of trans-[OsO2(CN)4]2- (1), trans-[OsO2(CN)2(OH)]2 2- (2) and trans-[OsO2(CN)2(OCH3)]2 2- (3) were measured at room temperature. Based on the molecular parameters of the X-ray determination normal coordinate analyses have been performed and the vibrations are assigned. The valence force constants of 1 are fd(Os=O) = 6.5, fd(Os-C) = 2.62 and fd(C≡N ) = 16.85 mdyn/A, of 2 and 3 are fd(Os=O) = 6.7, fd(Os-C) = 2.55 and fd(C≡N ) = 16.95 mdyn/Å. fd(Os-O) ranges from 2.0 - 2.2 and for the methoxy bridge is fd(C-O) = 4.00 mdyn/Å
