Abstract

The reaction of the 3d transition metal dichlorides MCl2 (M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn) with the silver salts of substituted tetracyanocyclopentadienides Ag+ [C-5(CN)(4)X](-) (X =CN, H, NH2 NO2) gives the complexes [M(MeOH/H2O)(4) {C-5(CN4)X}(2)]. Nine of these complexes were characterized by X-ray diffraction and it shows that they all are mononuclear with an octahedral M(N)(2) (O)(4) coordination sphere. In the structures, extensive hydrogen bonding leads to dense three-dimensional network structures.
