1972 923Complexes of Some Metal Bromides with I ,4-DioxanBy John C. Barnes and Miss C. S. Duncan, Department of Chemistry, The University, DundeeThe thermal decomposition reactions of MBr,,Zdx (where M = Mn, Co, or Ni ; and dx = 1.4-dioxan) and MBr,,dx(M = Co, Ni) have been investigated by thermogravimetry, differential enthalpic analyses, and dynamic reflectancespectroscopy. The 1 : 1 complexes decompose in a single step to MBr,. The 1 : 2 complexes also decompose toMBr, but each by a different route. Temperatures and enthalpies of decomposition are reported.Crystalline MBr2,2dx.4H,O are formed by NiBr, and CoBr, but not by MnBr,. The visible spectra suggest thatthe chromophore is trans-M (2Br,4H2O) with the dioxan molecules on lattice sites. Thermal decompositionconverts these compounds into MBr2,2dx.3H,O, MBr,,dx and finally MBr,. The d-d spectrum of CoBr2.2dx,3H,Osuggests the presence of two environments for Co2+, one identical with that in CoBr2,Zdx,4H,O and the otherpossibly tetrahedral.UNLIKE most weak solvating ligands, 1,4-dioxan (dx)forms well characterised hydrated complexes MX,,bdx,-cH20 as well as anhydrous solvates MX,,bd~.l-~ Inrecent papers the present authors reported the spectraand thermal decomposition reactions of MCl,,dx,2H20(where M is Ca, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni),* and of some copperE.Giesbrecht, W.

Only one solid phase, MBr2,2dx,-4H20 was found which contained all three components.This appears in the equilibrium solid over almost all thediagram, corresponding to MCl2,dx,2H,O in the chlorideseries.No mixed solvate was obtained from MnBr, by eitherroute.

CoBr2,2dx,4H,O showed threewell separated endotherms. D.r.s. measurements(Figure 4) show that a reaction occurs between 300and 313 K during which the intensity of the 5100 cm-lcombination band of water (v, + v3) is reduced and anew band appears in the d-d spectrum at 13.8 x lo3cm-l.

All threespin allowed d-d bands shift to the red between 300 andwith a splitting of 18 cm-l. Both compounds show abroad absorption between 700 and 400 cm-l with amaximum at 550 cm-l, superimposed on which are sharptransitions at 630, 620, 603, 515, and 450 cm-l. Apartfrom the 603 cm-l peak which is the ring bending modefound at 610 cm-l in pure dioxan, the envelope and thesubsidiary peaks represent the rocking and waggingmotions of co-ordinated water. A weak absorption at360 cm-l is probably the M-OH, stretching mode. Thering bending modes of dioxan (285 and 275 cm-l) appearat 300 and 275 cm-l in these complexes.The complexesare transparent towards the low frequency limit of thespectrometer (238 cm-l), where MCl2,dx,2H,O absorbstrongly. This is consistent with energies expected forthe metal-halide stretching frequencies, ca. 240 and200 cm-l for C1 and Br respectively. CoBr2,2dx shows(Co-Br) at 294 and 305 cm-l.The d-d spectra of MBr2,2dx,4H,O are identical withthose of MBr2,6H,O in energy and relative intensity.Table 5 shows that none of the eight observed d-dtransitions of CoBr2,6H,0 lies more than 0.2 x lo3 cm-lfrom the band position in CoBr2,2dx,4H,O. Both com-pounds show similar mauve to orange dichroism.TABLE 4Differential enthalpic analysis of MBr2,2dx,4H20EndothermfA IAtmospheric pressure 1 Torrf ----7 .ATI T2 AWob8 ./a TI T2 Al.T/',b, % AWm.% Product310 344 18.2 f 1.0a 32.0 f 1.0c o < 300 308 4.5 f 0.5 385 CoBr2,2dx,3H20331 350 34.5 f 0.5 34-29 CoBr,,dx433 47 7 62.5 & 1-5 420 463 53.0 f 0.6 53.11 CoBr,Ni b 38-1 f 3.0313 330 6.0 f 1.0 3.9 NiBr2,2dx,3H,0G 355 44.8 f 0.8 43.75 NiBr, + NiBr,,dx45 1 515 52.5 & 0.5 a 52.7 & 0.6 63.16 (NiBr,)358-413 I<, region of fusion with unreproducible endotherm; reproducible sharp exotherm at 383 K. 325-425 K, regionT, obscured by previous endotherm. d WeightAW,,,,of fusion with unreproducible endotherm; reproducible sharp exotherm a t 364 K.loss continued t o 450 K without detectable endotherm.includes measurements by d.e.a. and t.g., at 1 Torr.Experimental condition as in Table 1.AWT~. is the theoretical weight loss from MBr,,2dx,4H20 to the product shown.370 K and decrease in intensity between 410 and 450 K.These observations suggest that the first endothermrepresents the formation of NiBr,,2dx,3H20 which is notthermally stable and decomposes in the overlappingsecond endotherm, the products of which are an equi-molar mixture of NiBr,,clx and NiBr,. The NiBr,,dxthen decomposes below 470 K, without showing theendotherm reported in Table 1. This may again repre-sent the reduced sensitivity of the apparatus when work-ing at 1 Torr.Spectra.-The i.r. spectra of MBr,,2dx,4H20 are simi-lar to those of MCl,,dx,BH,O. Above 900 cm-l thespectra are very closely those of dioxan and water.In CoBr2,2dx,4H,O the dioxan ring stretching modeat 874 cm-l is split by less than 8 cm-l whereas in thenickel compound the components are clearly resolved,Analysis of the spectrum of NiBr2,2dx,4H,0 givesDq = 710 and B' = 973 cm-l.TABLE 5Electronic spectra to 40 k K (band maxima in lo3 cm-1)CoBr2,2dx,4H20CoBr2,2dx,3H20NiBr2,2dx,4H20NiBr,,2dx,3H20CoBr,,6H20NiBr2,6H20 7.5, 13.0 (20), 23.57.4, 11.0, 14.0, 17.8, 19.4, 20.4, 21.7, 29.7, 34.55.5 (7.2) ( l l - o ) , 13.8 (14.8) (15-3), 17.8, 19.5,7.1, 13.0 (20.0), 23.3 (36) (40)6.8, 11.8 (14), 20.2 (22.5) (28), 3120.4, 21.5, 34.27.6, 11.0, 14.0, 18-0, 19.5, 20.4, 21.9, 29.9In MBr2,6H20 the inner co-ordination sphere con-tains trans (2Br,4H20). The spectrum of the iso-structural CoCI,,GH,O was only assigned by invokingsymmetry-lowering by significant interaction of Co21972with the C1- ion in the second co-ordination sphere.12This suggests that the structure of CoBr2,2dx,4H20 willprove to be very closely related to that of CoBr2,6H20with octahedral complexes CoBr2(OH2), and the dioxanmolecule occupying lattice sites similar to those occupiedby the remaining 2H20 in the hexahydrate.The d-d spectrum of CoBr2,2dx,3H,0 shows unusualfeatures (Figure 4).All the bands of CoBr2,2dx,4H,0occur essentially unchanged in energy and intensity.In addition there is the strong band at. 13.8 x lo3 cm-lwith two subsidiary peaks to higher energy and a bandat 5.5 x lo3 cm-l. Once established, the spectrum ofthe trihydrate is not time dependent at 313 K showingthat the phase is not simply a mixture of CoBr2,2dx,-4H20 with another species.The most likely explanationis that two non-equivalent Co2+ ions exist in the tri-hydrate, one of which is identical with that in the tetra-hydrate. With so many of the bands identical withthose of the tetrahydrate it seems unlikely that theadditional bands can be assigned to distortion of thechromophore. The spectrum is quite unlike that ofCoBr,,2H20. It is possible that three Co ions out of fourretain the environment of CoBr2,Zdx,4H20 and the re-mainder are converted into a tetrahedral species.Since NiBr2,2dx,3H20 is fugitive, its d-d spectrum isless well characterised. The spectrum shows no evidencel2 J. Ferguson, J . Chern.
