Development of new Complex Compounds via Solid State Metathesis Reactions
Final Report Abstract
Within this project we have undertaken systematic investigations for the discovery of various new tin carbodiimide compounds. Preparations were done by solid state metathesis reactions. These reactions are showing excellent results in the development of metal carbodiimide compounds, allowing thermoanalytic control of reactions, including the detection of intermediate compounds and side phases. All these phases can be than be prepared and optimized in solid-state reactions (in fused silica tubes). This methodology is an excellent alternative to classical, explorative solid-state reactions. Tin carbodiimides and tin oxide carbodiimides developed within this project have shown some attractive physical properties that may be related to corresponding tin oxides with respect to semiconducting properties, but the potential of all our compounds is not yet fully explored. So far, we have undertaken structural characterizations by means of X-ray diffraction, as well as band structure calculations, analyses of bonding situations, phonon analysis, and analyses of the Sn2+ lone pair, using the Electron Localization Function (ELF), and optical measurements for the very distinct properties of the obtained compounds. When the carbodiimide ion is considered as a pseudo chalcogenide, we note the development of metal chalcogenides being almost under stagnation, the development of metal carbodiimides, however, is still an open field as has been demonstrated with the development of numerous tin carbodiimide compounds.
