Abstract
[Na-15-crown-5][WF5(NCl)] has been prepared as yellow crystals by the reaction of NaF with WC14(NCl) in the presence of 15-crown-5 in acetonitrile solution. The compound was characterized by its IR spectrum as well as by an X-ray structure determination. Crystal data: space group P 21/n, Z = 4 (2945 observed, independent reflexions, R = 0.035). Lattice dimensions at - 65 °C: a = 827.2(8); b = 1617.3(13); c = 1372.2(10) pm; β = 99.42(5)°. The com pound forms ion pairs, in which the sodium ion is seven-coordinated by the oxygen atoms of the crown ether m olecule, and by two fluorine ligands of the [WF5(NCl)]- unit with Na -F distances of 228.3(6) and 251.3(6) pm. The W ≡ N-Cl group of the anion is nearly linear (bond angle 176.1(5)°) with bond lengths WN = 173.3(6) and NCI = 162.2(7) pm.
