Tetramethylammonium dichlorodiphenylbismuthate(III)

Abstract

The crystal structure of the title compound, (C4H12N)[BiCl2(C6H5)2], contains a [BiCl2Ph2]− anion with an equatorially vacant trigonal‐bipyramidal geometry.

Depolymerization of polyethyleneterephthalate in supercritical methanol

“…The Hg–I distances fall in the range of 2.73 to 2.88 Å that is in agree with the reported values (2.62 to 3.08 Å) 14. And the Bi–Bi distance (4.86 Å) also agrees with that in an edge‐sharing (Bi 2 I 10 ) 4– dimer (4.78 Å) 21, 22.…”

σ‐Accepting Properties of a Chlorobismuthine Ligand

“…Altogether, these structural peculiarities strongly suggest the presence of a Au→Bi interaction. In line with this conclusion, the BiCl2 bond distance (2.640(3) Å) in 2 exceeds that observed for (2,6‐Mes 2 C 6 H 3 ) 2 BiCl (2.483(3) Å)14 and approaches that in [Ph 2 BiCl 2 ] − (2.733 Å) 15. Altogether, this geometry is reminiscent of that of hypervalent bismuth compounds with intramolecular N→Bi dative bonds 16.…”

Pentafluoroethyl Bismuth Compounds

“…Reaction of diaryl halo bismuthanes with pnictogen onium halides yields the corresponding four‐coordinate, ten‐electron bismuthate complexes [Ar 2 BiX 2 ] − (X=Cl, Br, I). These show a pseudo‐trigonal‐bipyramidal geometry around the metal atom, with the halogen atoms in the apical and the aryl groups in the equatorial positions.…”
