Trigonal Bipyramidal andSquare Pyramidal ComplexesBy Livio Baracco, Michael 7. Halfpenny, and Charles A. McAuIiffe," Department of Chemistry, Universityof Manchester Institute of Science and Technology, Manchester M60 1 ODThe trisubstituted stibine. tris(o-dirnethy1arsinophenyl)stibine (sbta) reacts with nickel(tt) salts to form com-plexes of type [Ni(sbta)X]Y (X = CI, Br, I, NCS, and NO,; Y = CI. Br, I, CNS, NO,, and BPh,) and [Ni(sbta),]Z,(Z = CIO, and BPh,). These diamagnetic complexes are five-co-ordinate, the [Ni(sbta)X]+ species being trr-gonal bipyrarnidal while the [Ni(sbta),J2+ species are square pyramidal.The visible spectra of these complexesare discussed and compared with those of other complexes containing ligands with the SbAs, and As, donor sets.As part of a study of the stabilisation of metal-antimonybonds by chelation 2-5 we have paid particular attentionto tris (o-dimethylarsinophen yl) stibine (sbt a) because ,as well as producing stable metal-stibine bonds, a numberof other interesting facets of ' tripod ' ligands and theircomplexes can be examined.These tripod ligands have been extensively studiedand generally they form trigonal bip yramidal complexes,6but some interesting structural differences have beenobserved for differing ligands. From X-ray studiesit is thus apparent that when the apical and equatorialdonor atoms are linked by o-phenylene chelate chainsthe equatorial atoms are above the metalbut when a three-carbon chelate backbone such as thetrimethylene chain is employed the equatorial donorsare below the metal atom,1° This, of course, is a conse-quence of the inability of the two-carbon and three-carbon chains to provide for an apical-metal-equatorial(L'-M-L) angle of 90"; for the two-carbon case theangle L'-M-L <go", and for the three-carbon caseLL'-M-L >90°.11.12 This has been reflected in thevisible spectral behaviour of the trigonal bipyrarnidalnickel(x1) complexes formed by the (o-Ph,P*C,H,)L' (L'= P, As, and Sb) ligands, where it was found that asthe apical donor atom, L', was changed in any seriesof complexes an anomalous spectrochemical series forL' was obtained, viz., P > As < Sb in contrast tothe spectrochemical order R,P > R3As > R3Sb foundfor complexes of the unidentate ligands R3L.13 Thiseffect was attributed to compression of the apicalL'-Ni bond upon complexation.In this study we havefurther examined this phenomenon.EXPERIMENTALTris(o-dimethylarsinophenyl)stibine, sbta, was preparedPreparation of the CowzpZexes.--[Ni(sbta)X]X (X = C1,as described.bPart 11, W.

From [Ni(sbta)X]X the complexes[Ni(sbta)X]BPh, (X = Cl, Br, I, NCS, and NO,) wereobtained by metathesis (see Table 1).Physical Measurements.-Magnetic susceptibilities weremeasured by the Gouy method.Conductivity measure-ments were carried out with a Cambridge InstrumentsLtd. conductivity bridge. 1.r. spectra were measured inNujol or hexachlorobutadiene mulls on a Perkin-Elmer62 1 spectropfiotometer, and electronic spectra on a Beck-man DK2 spectrophotometer (for reflectance spectraBaSO, was used as a diluent).RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONWe have applied the method of Feltham andHayter l4 to determine the electrolyte-type of theNi(sbta)X, and Ni(sbta) (X)BPh, complexes in nitro-methane; we found that when A, - A, was plottedagainst 2 / c slopes of 160-230 -lcm2 equiv.-l mol-4 1iwere obtained, a good indication that the complexesare 1 : 1 electrolytes and may be formulated [Ni(sbta)X]Xand [Ni( sbt a) X] BPh,, respectively .Further evidenceof co-ordinated and unco-ordinated anions can be ob-tained from the CNS- and NO3- complexes.

These are indicative of trigonal bipyramidalgeometry la and not square pyramidal geometry.lgThe two absorptions can be assigned to the one-electrontransitions between the orbitals e' --+- a' (ca. 18 k K )and e" _t a' (ca. 23 k K ) in a system of C,, symmetry.There is also a band which occurs at ca. 30 kK, itsfrequency and intensity varying with the co-ordinatedanion. This may be assigned to metal-arsenic or-antimony charge transfer.As the co-ordinated anion on the z-axis is changedthis would be expected to affect the a' level (d-orbitalof character z2) the most, and hence both the e'+a' and e'' + a' transitions will vary, though since thee r r level contains d-orbitals of character xz and yx thislevel, too will be affected and so the e r r + a' transi-tion energy shift is difficult to predict. However, itit can be seen that both transitions change in theorder NCS- > NO3- > C1- > Br- > I, i.e., a regularspectrochemical series. It may be noted that the highenergy of the NCS- complex absorption is furtherevidence of Ni-NCS co-ordination.l6 A.Turco and C. Pecile, Nature, 1961, 191, 66.N. F. Curtis and Y . M. Curtis, Inorg.

Chem., 1967, 6, 13991973 1947have visible absorption bands at higher energy than forL' = Sb, since the normal ligand-field strength isR3As > R3Sb.12 However, from point (2) above wefind that the comparative energies of the visible bandsare a function of the halogen donor as well as the apicalAs or Sb donor. Thus, As > Sb for X = C1, As - Sbfor X = Br, but As < Sb, for X = I. This nephel-auxetic behaviour can be explained in terms of thepolarisability of the halide donors compared with thatof the apical donor^.^^^^Thus it can be seen that the effect which chelatingligands have on the structure and spectrochemistry ofthe resulting complexes can be a function of chelatechain length just as much as it can be a function of thenature of the donor atoms.Also, even when chelatechain length is constant in a set of similar ligands thennephelauxetic behaviour may well become importantwhen the donors are polarisable.We have briefly reported22 on the reaction betweennickel@) perchlorate hexahydrate and sbta. Afterthe reactants are mixed in ethanol deep blue crystals of[Ni(sbta),] (ClO,), are soon deposited. Metal : ligandratios of 1 : 1, 1 : 2, and 1 : 3 all lead to the formationAs( I 1 A 5of the same product.

The visible spectrain solution exhibit one band at 20.1 kK (E = 2300)(C10,- complex) and 19.9 kK (E = 2050) (BPh,- com-plex); both of these bands exhibit a shoulder at lowerfrequencies. The position of these bands indicatesthat the [Ni(sbta)d2+ cation is essentially square pyra-midal 193 23 and not trigonal bipyramidal.l**2* Hencein this five-co-ordinate complex the most likely typeof ligand co-ordination must involve a structure similarto (I), i.e., a square pyramidal complex containinga terdentate and a bidentate sbta ligand. It is in-conceivable that the co-ordination could involve aquadridentate and a unidentate ligand, as it is notpossible for sbta to chelate as a quadridentate ligandto a metal in a square pyramidal configuration.The formation of [Ni(sbta),}(C1O4), with a tripodligand containing heavy donor atoms may be con-trasted with the usual stoicheiometry obtained fromthese ligands and Ni(H,O),(CIO,)Z, vix., [Ni(L)(ClO,)]-C10 L = qp or qas 18) or [Ni(L)(H,O)](ClO,), {L =pta: or qa; 21 qa = tris(3-dimethylarsinopropy1)ar-sine).
